Thirty Readers! Yay!

Good evening! I am in a fantastic mood today. I just realized my readership spiked from 12 to 30! Thank you for reading what I have to say and taking an interest in me. I hope in time I come to meet all of you, and learn from you as well.
Something strange happened today. I have been struggling a little (maybe a little is an understatement) with the money issue. Some days I feel incredibly faithful… But on occasion, those days I let fear take a hold of me yank me back to reality, or at least the reality society wants me to believe. “Fear is the absence of faith”. I don’t know who said that, but I have felt the truth in every letter of that sentence.
I got a call yesterday for an Assistant Manager position at Office Max. I actually rejoiced and felt excited. Why? I am convinced a conventional job is not for me. I am convinced my dream life is out there… waiting for me.
“Why would they want me? I don’t have management experience.” I thought to myself. The inner battle begun.
I slept. I woke up. And I got ready for my interview.
2:00 pm Ring Ring
“Hello?” – Me
“Limari?” – Bob (I totally changed his name)
“Yes?” – Me again
“This is Bob from Office Max. I obviously called you for the interview. Let’s start. First I want to review your work history. So… you were a Store Manager at Guess?” – Bob
“Erm. Definitely not. Maybe you have the wrong person.” – Me, extremely confused.
“Oh…I am so sorry. I do. I-I” – Bob (was very ashamed. I could tell).
“No problem Bob. Just call the other person, O.K.? Have a great day!” – Me, (very relieved).
“Bye.” – Bob almost choked, but eventually hung up.
“Bye.”
The moral of the story (or the juju, because I believe in juju) is: Before the interview, I visualized, I prayed, I meditated and did all things possible to concentrate on what I wanted. I asked my Higher Power for guidance, since I was too concerned about money to think straight.
Isn’t it a wonderful feeling when God/The Universe/ or however you want to call it, does for you what you couldn’t do for yourself?
Here I am, on a Tuesday night, knowing that the life of my dreams is just around the corner. I can feel it. I can smell the fresh air (or the smug from NYC). I can see the people I’m shaking hands with. I can see myself taking vocal lessons from Brett Manning. I can see everything… I am captivated, because these ideas grow and live inside my self.
SUPER tiny note: I have two new videos. Check them out here on the Music page. Thanks!
Four words: “And, we are live!”

Being on TV is a little nerve wrecking, especially if you’re about to sing and play live. One thing my mom and mother-in-law kept repeating: “Just have fun.”
My husband and I leaving for the show.
Getting ready…
Going live!
The end result:
This was an amazing experience. I thank every one involved in the creation of the program, and my successful performance. My dream quest continues… Does yours?
