Relationships and Prayer

I had a client yesterday, a regular who is usually very quiet and reserved. She’s beautiful and talented and one of those women who really has her stuff together…her relationship, her longterm realtionship has hit a rough spot, and because it’s my job, and I offer myself freely in this capacity, I listen. Her man, at one time in his life was studying for the priesthood. The kind with no wife and kids. Just him and Big J along for the ride. He left, having so many other desires for his life such as a wife and kids. Understandable. He has recently confessed that he feels like perhaps he’s being called back. To the church. Where she isn’t welcome. In that way.

And I’m not saying this here as a nanny nanny boo boo, look at her how jacked up she is. Not at all. I’m stunned because prayer IS my go to reaction. I pray daily. Constantly. Sometimes I catch myself praying subconciously. But what do you do…if your go to guy…is the other woman?

It just really made me think about relationships. They are hard. They are. Once you finally meet someone they hold some trials!  But mostly? I really come to believe that they are 90% LUCK. Meeting that person, just the MEETING of them..Do you believe in luck? Do you believe in soul mates? THE ONE? or The Many? This internet dating is at the very best entertaining. It is. At the very worst, it can be a little discouraging. The same faces. The same sites. All of them either uninteresting, or uninterestED.  However! HA HA HA!!! My head is up. It’s an adventure. I am “talking” to two new guys…and so far they are interesting! Me Likey!  One guy has been a snot and I was amazed at how it pissed me off in a flash…and then I remembered how much power the DELETE key holds! Muahahahahahahahahahahahahaha. Suckit dude.

I have felt very stressed surprisingly calm about the lack of money this week. I’ve got some good appointments on my book today, I’ve snagged some NEW clients that I think will be regulars. If I can hold on until wedding season…crossing fingers…I’m so thankful for a director who has worked around my schedule for rehearsals. I haven’t had to leave work early ONCE yet. and won’t until next week…so that’s a blessing.

Kids…I needs me some SUNSHINE!!! It’s raining/snowing here again. We’re above freezing. So that’s good, but we’ve got another storm coming through this weekend. Fraggle ROCK! I’m sick of it. I need some sun. I need some pretty pretty blue sky. I need a good mental health day!!!

or more coffee.

Here’s today’s NFTU, and as usual it’s pretty awesome!

First, Misti, completely forget about who, how, and when. Then, decide only upon what you want, the end result, with as much clarity as possible. I’ll shuffle the deck, the magic show will begin, and jokers won’t be all that are wild.

Gosh, you’re so much fun to watch when you read these things.

Deal,
The Universe

  1. I think there’s a luck or fate factor in it all. I had a full scholarship to major in music at OU. Just think of all that I would have missed out on if I’d taken that road instead of USAO (where I didn’t have a full ride, but bits and pieces of scholarships). Fate lead me to the path I’m on today. And I feel very lucky.

    You are the coolest bravest person I know.

  2. True that, coolest, bravest and let me add spectacular!
    Josie and I were talking last night of your new venture… praising you for getting out there, doing the work, putting in the time and emotional investment it takes to date via the roulette wheel that is Internet dating.
    I hope you felt lots of good vibes. We sent them out.
    I do believe in mates… I do believe in the soul. Big, paraphrased.
    Personally… forever is not a notion I subscribe too. I do believe in luck but also believe that Forest Gump notion that its both fate and luck.
    No other person could have come along and filled the same place in my heart…. as Josie as. Same goes for you… Noodle, SP, and all those that I hold near and dear.
    In light of the fact that life is too short, way too short… I say… what ever it is… fate, luck, destiny, soul mates… when you find in hold on to it like its the Holy Grail and until you do find it… Indiana Jones your ass all the way to it! I’ll be your distinguished Sean Connery side kick babe and cheer you on the whole way.
    And one more thing…
    its out there. You have always believed that. Higher power. Prayer is the most powerful strength we have.
