Say Yes To Blogging

The brilliance of blogging is that while many of us think we are talking to ourselves, sometimes people actually hear us. I made my blog a forum in which I could be my most open and authentic self. We all have so many faces that it is a rare occasion when we get to be our most absolute naked honest self. I got into it with my boy friend last night because he advised me "not to be so honest" on my site, but I disagreed as I want this to be the one place where I can actually get to share who I am sans my definitive character traits. The intention of my blog wasn't to sugarcoat who I am and what I am going through. The sheer act of saving oneself isn't pretty or perfect, so while I can promise to sprinkle in some lighthearted posts every now and then, I cannot promise to never upset you.

Yesterday, I posted my resolutions for the new year and sure enough someone heard me. The Universe awarded my honesty with an connection. Under the heading Contributions to Larger Community on my list of resolutions, I listed that I would be "active within the NY Acumen Fund Community," and to my disbelief, someone from the NY Chapter contacted me today! OK, so it turns out that Acumen does a search for their name every morning, but I didn't know that! My point is that if you write your goals out, you will begin to achieve them and if you read your goals daily as many books recommend, you will actually conquer them. So, as The Secret, Eckhart Tolle, and a whole slew of other like minded individuals stated (and as I am confirming it)--if you think positively and act positively, positivity will flood your world. In conclusion: Start writing and reciting and we will all save ourselves together in no time.
