Look, I have nothing to complain about. I have a flexible business where I can take off time to go take my 87 year old Mom for our traditional mani pedi adventure. I am truly blessed. It's hard to see that when we are running out of money...seemingly. The truth is that we have so many big and amazing things on the horizon that I know that money will always be there. Like I said in my first post, "Abundance is a state of being." We are truly abundant!
I took a wonderful sunset hike in Fryman Canyon with my friend, Shelly. A beautiful Italian woman in her 50's, she is a stunning and powerful vision. Men would walk by us and look her up and down giving her a big smiled greeting. She is oblivious to it as we continue our dialogue about money, credit cards and loan modifications for our mortgages. I learned that if you go to the Bank of America website, which is where our mortgage is, there is a place to fill in for a load mod if you are having trouble paying your mortgage. Interesting what there is out there. We talked about the shame of our situation that is making our bellies ache. LA is a tough town of judgement. "You have to be careful who you tell your situation to", she says. Shelly is a writer with two projects finally getting developed and going into casting with some very big stars interested. She is a fearless woman with a huge belief in ultimate possibilities. I have watched her over the years through a divorce, finding out her fiance cheating on her, almost losing her home and walking away from her credit cards. It's been a tough journey for her but she never never gives up on life or love. She is in a wonderful relationship now. Both being artists, it's been a challenging journey but they are going it together. Just like Joe and I, it's a blessing to have a partner in life and love.
Joe and I always start our day reading the inspirational phrase for the day in the Science of Mind magazine. We follow with a prayer treatment. We inhale the prayer into our God centered heart. It is a remembrance of what is important in life...that God is in us through us as us. That is what is real.
Today I see beyond the discomfort of my present situation, knowing that when I trust life, all is perfect. I know that if everything material went away from me in my life, we would still have enormous abundance. So I must get out of my kimono and into my mani pedi lunch outfit to journey to Santa Clarita to pick up mom.
I am grateful!
