Ju;y 25, 2011

I was getting ready for work this morning; putting in earrings when I noticed that one of my diamond earrings was missing. I have my ears pierced multiple times and always wear a pair of diamond studs. I just about cried.


I was pretty upset. Not really because of the earrings themselves; but because they were a gift from my husband at a milestone I thought was important. My husband gave them to me when I graduate from college. I never take those earrings out.  

Before leaving for work this morning I let go of the sadness I felt for loosing my earring. I decided that I would find it. Later in the day I was reading ~ The Power by Rhonda Byrne (she also wrote The Secret). There is a part talking about the loss of a dog and when they let go of the negative feelings about their loss; they imagined that their dog was with them, put out his food etc.  Soon after they found a notice of a found dog, their dog.

When I read that, I knew for sure I would find my earring. So after work I came home and before the vacuuming and laundry got done I searched for my earring.  Well I found it!!!!! I was so excited; again not because of the earring itself, but because of the memories it holds.



Quotes

It must be those brief moments
when nothing has happened - nor is going to.
Tiny moments, like islands in the ocean
beyond the grey continent of our ordinary days.

There, sometimes, you meet your own heart
like someone you've never known.
~ Hans Børli

Live today. Not yesterday. Not tomorrow. Just today. Inhabit your moments. Don't rent them out to tomorrow. ~ Jerry Spinelli

My only advice is to stay aware, listen carefully and yell for help if you need it. ~ Judy Blume
