A friendship may create tension in your life now. As you are feeling more optimistic about the direction you have chosen, there is also an inner insecurity that nags at the back of your mind. Don’t be afraid to speak out if anyone attempts to exert too much influence on your choices, but be careful not to inappropriately bring up old baggage. Instead, focusing on the present — and not the past — is the best way to breeze past hidden pockets of trouble. Wednesday, December 13, 2006

I wish I had read this yesterday because I was starting to doubt my decision but I think the cold was getting to me. Anyway, I’m back on track which makes me happy in the midst of my misery.
My Past Life December 10, 2006

So I was doing some blog surfing over at BlogSoldiers and happened upon this blog with a link to a past life analysis website. What you do is enter your birthday and a psychological blurb (randomly picked I’m sure) pops up. Here’s mine:
Your past life diagnosis:
I don’t know how you feel about it, but you were male in your last earthly incarnation.You were born somewhere in the territory of modern France around the year 1800. Your profession was that of a seaman, dealer, businessman or broker.
Your brief psychological profile in your past life:
Bohemian personality, mysterious, highly gifted, capable to understand ancient books. With a magician’s abilities, you could have been a servant of dark forces.
The lesson that your last past life brought to your present incarnation:
Your task is to learn, to love and to trust the universe. You are bound to think, study, reflect, and to develop inner wisdom.
Do you remember now?
Now I know that this is just for entertainment purposes only but the second paragraph describes me as I am now (except for the dark forces reference) and the third describes pretty much what I’ve felt my purpose to be my entire life even though I’ve been distracted from it. Strange.
This is a random anomaly but at the same time it isn’t. One of the things I’ve learned about the universe is that whatever is in your head will eventually manifest itself and if you have questions eventually they will be answered. Even if the answer comes through a random visit to a website that can’t possibly know anything about you it is still an answer. The trick is that you have to be paying attention enough and be open enough in order to recognize it for what it is.
The Power of Corporate Advertising December 6, 2006

I started my menstral cycle so already I was feeling yucky. To add to my misery, I ate or drank something that disagreed with my digestive system so nothing would stay in my stomach. It was crazy, I would get hungry but anything I ate would skip my stomach entirely and go straight out the backdoor. You think its gross reading about it. Trying having to deal with it.
Well driving home was an experience. My stomach grumbled all the way. As I was approached the corner drug store that’s close to my house, all of a sudden I hear this in my head:
When you’ve got Nausea, Heartburn, Indigestion, Upset Stomach, Diarhea take Pepto Max!
And a picture of the mythical monsters, Paul Bunyan, the 50 foot woman, Godzilla et al doing the Pepto Bismal dance popped in my head.
I just shook my head as I pulled into the parking lot. Subliminal advertising strikes again.
Oh and yes I am starting to feel better.

Everything comes back to what you believe about yourself. Sure, you Aquarians realize that you’re different from others. You may not want to fit into the expected norms of society, yet you do want to feel like you belong to something greater than your isolated self. Reestablish your values, based on what you need, by including those around you in your vision.

I have isolated myself from others for so long that I’m not sure how to include them in my dreams and goals. I feel like such a disappointment to myself for not acheiving all that I’ve set out to do in my life and for continously starting and abandoning projects that I’m afraid to share what I’m doing. I feel like if I don’t tell people what I’m doing then no one will be disappointed when I fail to do it and it’s easier to convince myself that I wasn’t really serious about that goal in the first place.
I’m finding, however, that I really need a cheerleader. Someone who believes in me no matter what happens. There is something about having someone in your corner who recognizes your potential and has absolute faith that you will achieve success even when you yourself have doubts. Is there a Cheerleaders ‘R Us any where around here

I finally figured out just how useful Google can be and customized a homepage just for me. I only have a few things set up right now because Google is so vast and huge and offer 5000 things you can add to your personal site. One of those things is the daily horoscope. Usually I forget to read it but today’s caught my eye:
It is your key planet Uranus that is getting stressed today by amorous Venus. As the symbol of love, beauty and sensory pleasure, Venus encourages you to risk more than normal in your quest for fulfillment. Avoid too much stimulation, whether from caffeine or reckless behavior. In the long run, it’s better to sacrifice a bit of excitement for long-term stability.

I’ve highlighted the key part. I have a bad habit of doing the opposite, sacrificing long term stability for a bit of excitement. If I don’t do something, in the end I’m going to end up with a life I absolutely don’t want.
What Attracts You? October 29, 2006
Posted by maryjaene in Random Thoughts.2 comments
Visiting my blogroll, I found this thought prompt on StartUpPrincess.
This week: write down three things, concepts, or subjects (not people) that you feel attracted to…the color red, bookstores, vanilla, fast cars, democracy. And ask yourself what’s so interesting, or soothing, or sexy about the things that you gravitate towards? Go with the first thing that enters your mind, no matter how silly or grandiose it may seem.
Three things that attract me:
Books
Writing
Coding
Why do these things attract me:
They all have to do with the same thing and that is the potentiality of life. I like potential. I like possibilities. I like looking out at the world and seeing what could be. Writing and coding helps me churn out my interpretations of these possibilities and reading books helps me explore other peoples thoughts on this.
Sleepy head October 17, 2006

I slept way to much today. I went to bed around 4 am and got up at 8 to watch the rerun of the series finale of Charmed and then went back to bed. I should have gotten up and worked on a writing project or excercised my brain but instead I just slept until it was time to prepare for work. Consequently I woke up with a headache. When I got up to watch Charmed I had a bowl of cereal and then didn’t eat or drink anything until 8 hours later. Not good for the blood sugar.
It’s been a very quiet day today. I think it is because the full moon has passed and everything is settling back to normal. I don’t know what it is about the full moon but it puts people all out of sorts myself included. Traffic is always horrendous and people are short tempered or absentminded or both. I’ll have to put that on my list of things to study as to why that might be.
