Renewing Rain

Toward the middle of yesterday I received a few statements in the mail that brought my financial state of mind to a screaming halt. I knew that I was behind on some things, but I was unaware of the severity of it all. I also worked at the bar last night. For the last few weeks I have been making really great money. Last night I suppose I went in to work with the mentality that I was financially stuck and made crap. I had kind of expected that to happen considering my state of mind.

A storm rolled in last night along with a cold front. The lightening was a spectacular show. The thunder rolled all night long. It was beautiful. I laid in bed listening to the sheets of rain hit the window as the wind blew across our building.

When I awoke this morning, I felt anew. It were as if the rain had washed away my fears, my hesitations- anything that was standing in my way previously. It was in fact a renewing rain.

Today was the last day of work at the plumbing company. Oddly enough, it was blessing in disguise. I am keeping my heart open for any opportunities coming my way that I can't pass up.

......A Bridge was Built

Just last week I started working for Owning Pink. A couple days after I first started I created that I wanted to participate full time.

Yesterday my boss told me that Friday would be my last day at the plumbing company. A few days ago Lissa got her book deal. Coincidence? I think not.

Thanks Universe for moving things around so quickly!

A New Plateau

Hello There All! So glad you could join the conversation!

As of Monday, I am officially a member of the Owning Pink Staff. This opportunity is has been more than a blessing to me. I want to take this opportunity, now that I have your attention, to tell you why this occasion is beyond both unbelievable and phenomenal.

1. Ever since the first time I tweeted (sounds so dirty!) @lissarankin I loved her. The message that she brings to everyone she comes into contact with is what so many of us have been searching for our whole lives. Most of were probably thinking along the lines of the same things. However, Lissa had the "balls" to through her message out there, shouting it from the roof tops! For that I will always adore her.

2. The community that is created through Owning Pink is not only a strong, triumphant group of people (mostly women), but also a vulnerable one at that. Owning Pink is place where everyone can take their shoes off, lean back and make themselves at home. The people that crowd the pages of The Owning Pink Forums are so boldly creating there lives as they have always dreamed. They are doing it all and sharing every moment of it with YOU. (Lucky Us!)

3. I have longed- LONGED- to be a writer for as long as I can remember. I published a poem in the 5th grade. In high school, I was editor of the newspaper and yearbook advertising. I wrote for the newspaper and also designed some of the pages, as well as a Magazine cover. I still have it packed away in my craft closet for future applause. Being able to write for Owning Pink is step onto a giant platform that IS my future. Since that moment, all of my dreams and ambitions suddenly became real and so much bigger than I anticipated.

4. A glimpse at the mere thought that Lissa and Joy classify me with themis breath taking. More than that- it's unreal.

All of these things gave me a new appreciation for the world I have created and the dreams that soon to come. Now, I can see the light and nothing- NOTHING, is standing in my way!

World, here I come!
