I am sad to say that lately I have become a
pessimist. I used to always believe in finding the good in everything and
thinking that things would get better. My mom always said that bad things
happen in three’s. So, after my third unlucky event, I thought I was in the
clear. But, I kept collecting the bad! What
happed to my three good in between?
I tried having a good cry. I tried that 20+ times.
That didn’t help. I did the only next logical thing I could think of. I started
to read my daily horoscope. A lot of my characteristics of being a Virgo are
true, but my horoscope has left me feeling more confused. I looked into going
to a psychic…but they are expensive!
After talking on the phone to my oldest brother
Troy, he told me that I made him want to hang up the phone and shoot himself
because I was so depressing. It hit me, I have to take a hard look at my life
and re-evaluate and find the good.
After 6 interviews for teaching jobs, of which I
didn’t get. I will be a building sub at Troy High next year. That isn’t the silver
lining I was looking for! Then I thought
about my writing. Subbing will give me the time and opportunity to write. Next week
I am pitching my books to 13 different editors and agents. Then the end of
September I am going to Ohio for a writing conference with Stacey Hays. Subbing
will allow me to finish my edits and to move on to the next book I want to
start.
I am ready for my three good things. I play the
lotto twice a week. You can’t win if you don’t play! C’mon Karma, I am ready for you!!
