Horoscopes

I have been an avid believer in Astrology since age ten. I think my mom was the one who introduced me to this strange form of science. I want to say I think it's bullshit so you don't think I'm crazy in the coconut but I kind of believe in horoscopes, kind of a lot. I have a book called Astrology for Love and pretty much all the relationships I've had with different signs are spot-on in that book's descriptions.

My horoscope for today said I should do away with the negative and replace it was a positive perspective. This meant a lot for me because lately I've been feeling pretty doomed and down, like I'm already trapped in something I don't want with no way out but that's almost the opposite of the truth! I'm held down by nothing right now, so there's no reason to feel down about my situation, I can do anything ... yeah I know it sounds cheesy to give myself these pep-talks but once in a while you need one don't ya?

Starting today I'm looking on the brightside, the glass is half-full, half-full of my favorite beverage. mmm maybe it's half-full of champagne, that would be nice, or lemonade, also a good drink to have half a glass of. Well, I'm going to work on getting my shit together and actually doing the stuff I think about doing because if I don't maybe my horoscope tomorrow will say something like "f you. love, your dreams" ... I don't know. I just don't want to get to a point in my life and say what if or I really could have done something there.

I need to go, do, be and stop simply THINKING about these things.


Here is a list of things I'd like to do/accomplish in some sort of time:

1. Publish a book of mine
2. Own a farm and grow fruit and vegetables and have a road side stand
3. Work in or own a bookstore
4. Share food and laughter with friends and family
5. Travel everywhere the wind takes me, be more free
6. Take care of children who aren't mine
7. Hold lots of hands
8. Work more than one job
9. Live in a city
10. Be part of something much larger than myself

I think a lot of the things I want are more about the feeling than the doing. I'm interested in accomplishments, helping others and caring for myself, the earth and people. I want success but not at the expense of my morals or other people's well-being.

Sometimes I spend too much time thinking. Ugh. It gets stressful, which is totally ironic and weird that thinking is stressful but it is.

Listening to Michael Jackson makes me feel better though - "Can't Stop Loving You" is on my iTunes now. What lyrical genius. Hahaha :)
