Once Upon A Time I Write Here A Lot

Now? Not so much. I mean, barely, if at all.

I’m sitting here numb from repetitive tasks for today (and only for today, thank goodness!) and I have the sudden urge to type-speak. I don’t feel like picking up the phone to babble to someone, but just let everything flow through my fingers.

Last week I started an online course called Mondo Beyondo and it’s a 5-week course about “Dreaming Big”. I dream big on some days, but on most days I get bogged down by what’s happening in the Now, what concerns me Now, what ails me Now. I’ve forgotten how to dream and build a dream in my mind and actually get it.

Do you believe in dreaming? Wishing beyond what you think would be possible in your lifetime? I did this years before without even knowing it. I let my mind loose. I was in a horrible place, but I let my imagination wonder and wander. I built on that dream in my mind one detail at a time. The more I think about it, the more it becomes vivid, and there came a time when the gap between my dream and reality became more little. And eventually, I am living it. The more I think about it the more I ask myself why the heck did I stop there?

Complacency? Did I get too comfortable? I won’t discount that theory. It’s easy to be that.

This year, 2010, is my ME-year. I will take care of myself, nurture myself and let myself dream big. Dream of things I don’t think would be possible, but nevertheless, I will. Because I can. It’s free to dream, yes?

On a comment I left on a blog of a writer, I mentioned that I’ve been blogging since the early 2000, and she made a remark that the archives on my blog is only 2 years old at most. Most visitors of my more publicized blog don’t know this URL, where the half of it happened. I meant to do something worthwhile with this, and I’m still trying to figure out what, really.

the right thing at the right time

do you believe in signs? in stop signs? in green lights? sometimes life feels like you’re on a road of stoplights and you’re just breezing through all of them. other times you’re stuck in traffic and even if you honk so loud, there’s just no getting anywhere.

there are also times when something that you needed the most will just come to you the moment you’re about to give up. or you will meet someone who is just the perfect person to console you at that moment.

i get goosebumps whenever that right time comes. there is someone watching over me. or the cosmos is aligning to my wishes.

the past months have been a practice in asking questions, finding answers, and being put in my place with stoplights. it’s kind of freaky.

i’m sorry i’ve neglected this blog. i think because of recent events, it’s been harder for me to put personal stuff. perhaps i will keep this as a business-related blog, with occasional smatterings.

in the meantime, i can’t promise to update this in the following weeks. but maybe i will, because i need all the emotional and psychological release i can have. we’ll see.

how are you?

New Moon

I feel a much better energy space today, in spite of the lack of sleep. It’s a good day, and you better believe it!
