Current Status... Four consecutive positive days in the stock market is a lot like spring -- She giveth and she taketh away. Rain and clouds for three days, sunshine and birdsong the next three, and all the while crocuses and snowdrops are foretelling better times, the threat of a great March blizzard remains. The uncertainty of Spring.
Lately I'm thinking... The most important thing is to be open to whatever good news there is. For instance, even if there are many months of unemployment and business failures to go, upturns in the stocks or the retail sector are signs of the Spring to come. It may be late this year, but it will arrive.
This is really interesting... Being open to good news can sometimes save the day. Worried that my editorial work was slowing ominously, I noticed that three days' running, I was saved by some serendipitous, last-minute assignment. Okay, I can't see a booming future yet, but I can see, if I look, a strong base and enough work to get me through.
Currently watching... For awhile we watched My Name Is Earl, fascinated by the combination of trailer trash and karma. The characters are hysterically lovable and absolutely unforgettable. I love the selfish Joy -- Oh, snap! she says when her nasty plots fall flat. Stuart loves Lost; I don't watch because I can't make that kind of time commitment to TV. But I do faithfully watch Veronica Mars, teen detective. Why an aging Boomer would love a show about high school I have no idea, but I find it addictive. So much for high brows.
The Soapbox: Look for opportunity in challenge. Be grateful for friends, co-workers and family. Send out positive thoughts: I can use your energy...and you have my hope for the world: May we learn simplicity again.
