A New Perspective

I read The Secret several years ago and just put the book aside when I was done.
This spring I came across it again and reread the book and did a lot of soul searching. I could see how many good things happened in my life by LOA without me even knowing it. But there are directions I want my life to take that just weren’t happening.
Then I came across The Magic. And that book transformed my life.
Giving gratitude for everything changes who you are. The little things that kept me up at night, no longer are a concern. Each night I go to sleep counting my blessings of the day.
Just this week my son was upset because a manager said some very uncomplimentary things to him. It had him questioning himself. I told him to stay true to who he is and look past this episode. The next day I used gratitude that my son would call me to tell me what a great day he had and this manager was nice to him.
And that’s just what did happen. My son was called upon to do some work in this manager’s area and the manager was impressed and appreciative of my son’s work. This is just one example.
My big dream is to move to Florida. We bought a house there two years ago and I’m trying to line up employment before the final move. While everyone will tell you it’s a daunting task, I have no doubt it will happen.
Today I had a phone interview set up for a job in Florida. Just a few hours ago I got a call from the human resource person that the woman I was to interview with no longer wanted to speak with me. It appears she’s looking at someone else.
The old me would have been upset and questioned why this happened. Instead I gave thanks for the call. This obviously was not the job I am meant to have.
People around me have noticed how I’ve changed. Although I’m not in the job I want, I am grateful to be employed and having the funds to afford my Florida home which I will live in eventually.
When things don’t fall in line then it’s not meant to be. So tonight I’ll go to bed grateful that my dream job is still out there and it will soon be mine.
Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!
