Thank you to Rhonda, The Secret team and to all of you writers and readers out there. I am sending you love and light.
So, my best friend and I love festivals. We love dressing up, dancing and meeting new people, so we decided that we wanted to go to Burning Man this year so that we could express our inner artists out in the desert among like minded people.
We applied for my friend to get a low income ticket and she got it. We were so excited because we were halfway there but we still had to wait one month for the main sale for me to buy mine. On the day the tickets went on sale, I was ready but even though I was on the site waiting for the moment they would go on sale, they sold out before I got my chance. They sold 26,000 tickets in half an hour, it was insane. I was so sad that I did not get a ticket but I tried really hard to stay positive and not get discouraged.
I told myself that I was going, but the doubts were still in the back of my mind. 50,000 people tried to buy the 26,000 tickets, what were the chances someone would sell their ticket to me, a stranger? But, I knew I had to trust, so my friend and I bought our plane tickets to Nevada, knowing that we were going, no matter what. And that was when the magic happened.
I was called in for jury duty on a random Wednesday and I got on my phone in the middle of the day while I was waiting around. While I was cruising the net, I saw that someone was giving away a free ticket to Burning Man in a contest. So my friend and I got together and crafted the perfect entry and at that point I just knew that the ticket was mine.
I started to worry a little bit though as I had not heard anything about winning the contest and Burning Man was only one month away. The doubts were starting to creep in. I knew deep in my heart that I wanted to be there, so I asked the Universe to please let me know as soon as possible if I was going or not. Of course, right on time, I got an email the next day saying that I had won the contest!
I am headed to Burning Man next week and I am beyond excited. I can not believe the Universe made a way for me to attend. I am going to spread so much love, laughter and joy at Burning Man. I can’t wait!
Thanks so much!
