Where to Begin!! OPRAH!!

Do I believe in the Law of Attraction you ask?  YES!!  For starters what a day I had. My husband got his job back.  This right here is enough to make me jump for joy!  Secondly, my friend Karen sent me an email with a link to the Oprah site.  Now I'm sure I don't have to explain who Oprah is but here's a little reminder.  Beautiful African-American woman who has a wonderful sense of humor, a heart of Gold, believes in the Law of Attraction and to me is the reason the book "The Secret" exploded and became a phenomenon.  When people spoke of "The Secret" you'd hear "Oh that's the book that Oprah was talking about on her show, etc, etc.."  This woman has power and oh yeah, did I mention she is a BILLIONAIRE? LOL.  Of course I had to capitalize that word!  It's amazing especially knowing what she's gone through in life.  Truly inspirational.  OK!  That aside!  Karen is a huge fan of Oprah and it has always been her dream to be on the Oprah show in the audience.  So there was this pool of names that the Oprah people were selecting from for her November show tapings.  You had to pick a date or dates, whichever was given, and pray to God you were chosen.  Remember now, Oprah will no longer have her show after this year so this is it!  You were allowed to put your name and the names of 3 others to come along IF you were chosen.  Well, I didn't win.  Karen didn't win either.  But.. her friend Penny won and she had put Karen's name and my name as her guests!  I'm going to see Oprah people!!  I am so excited!  Do you know what the odds must be to be able to see Oprah in her last 2 months of taping knowing people from all over were putting their names in, all within a 24 hr. opening?!  Things are looking up and it is only going to get better from here.  Karen is also a believer of the LOA and look what we've attracted!

It gets better, well for me anyway.  My husband informed me that he is having his own LOA "journey" and it began just before the phone call from his boss. (!!)  I had no idea!  This makes me so happy that we are on the same page and with the 2 of us practicing the LOA, our vibrational pull will be even stronger!

Earlier in the day we had gone to the craft store to look for more supplies for my card-making.  My husband went one way and I went another.  I was looking at card stock when a woman coming around the corner with her carriage struck up a conversation with me out of nowhere.  Her statement went as follows "I knit hats with only my left hand and I have 79 at home."  At first I just smiled because first of all it was something that came out of the blue and secondly she had an obvious disability of some sort which made it a little difficult to understand her.  I wasn't sure though.  I thought perhaps stroke victim because she seemed to have one side of her face almost frozen when she spoke and her right arm just sort of dangled.  "Think Sue, think" I told myself.  I quickly responded with "Wow, that's a lot.  What are you going to do with the 79 hats?"  That is when she told me she sold them at craft shows and that when she was 4 years old she had a brain tumor that left her right side paralyzed.  But she loves crafts and creating so much that she learned how to knit using only her left hand and she also loves to take photos which she makes into greeting cards.  I knew how she felt and I knew her drive.  "Bing!" (that's the sound of my light bulb hehe).  "You make greeting cards?" I asked her.  And from then on the conversation was like I was interviewing her for CardStock Magazine.  (No idea if it exists but... hmmmm).  She gave me great advice about where to sell my cards and how to sell the cards.  She one time raised $30,000 for the Easter Seals!!  So anyhow, I told her I've been printing up my cards at home but she takes hers to a local business because she doesn't have a printer.  She asked me if used photo paper and I said I did and that it was great for gifts.  That's when she told me she had a package of high quality photo paper in her car that she got at a yard sale but she couldn't use it.  It was just such a bargain she couldn't refuse it. (.50 cents!)  By this time I'm looking for my husband, I don't see him anywhere.  I tell her I need to go and look for him and I shook her left hand and introduced myself.  Her name was Melissa and I told her it was a pleasure meeting her.  Searching for my husband I couldn't find him.  I grabbed my cell phone to call him when I noticed my message box was full.  I called him and when he answered I knew where he was.  He was waiting in the car!  Haha..  He couldn't find me and he had searched for almost 20 mins.  As I was leaving the store I bump into Melissa and she was empty handed of merchandise.  Just a fist full of coupons.  She asked if I was leaving now and I told her about my husband so she left with me and told me to follow her to her car which was parked right in front of the store in the handicapped spot.  She opened her car door and pulled out the photo paper.  She just said "here, take this" with a smile on her face.  I tried to give her the .50 cents but she refused.  I told her thank you and that God Bless her.  That was the end of our encounter.

Who was this woman and where did she come from?  Did I attract her?  What are the odds that I would meet this wonderful woman?  It was as if she was placed there just for me.  She didn't even shop.  She left there empty handed and I'm sure she had just gotten there when she spoke to me because we were close to the entrance.  I learned so much from her and I will never forget her.  I will be looking for her when I hear of craft shows.  Oh and she showed me 2 hats that she made that were in a Ziploc in her car.  Absolutely gorgeous!

Well, there you have it.  The LOA at work again.  I lit my candles and said my prayers.  I said a prayer to archangel Raziel and said "thank you".  I just felt the need to so and so I did.

I want to God Bless all of you who read this page today or any day.  Believe is all I have to say.  Just BELIEVE.  ~Suzanne~
