Location: Brunswick, Maine, United States

A fat kid who grew up on the coast of Maine in a previous century -- actually, in another galaxy far, far away -- I thought I was too stupid to go to college. My comfort zone, my self-esteem, and my success zone --were about the size of a quark, and just about as stable. The times they have "achanged." At 30 I came across Helen Keller's statement, "Life is either a daring adventure or nothing." That changed everything! Since then my adventure has found me on the summit of Mt. Kilimanjaro, finishing the Hawaii Ironman Triathlon, and solo through-hiking the 2167-mile Appalachian Trail at the age of 59. Then followed the biggest challenge of my life as I caught Lyme disease on the Trail and spent the next 5 plus years recovering. And now, my adventure is taking me to some of the grandest adventures yet. Watch this space for on-going developments!

The Law of Attraction Rocks

I'm in the process of moving; I put up a craigslist ad for some freebies. Dan answered and came to pick them up this morning. Not surprisingly, we were like-minded in terms of prosperity and success. In the course of our conversation, Dan mentioned that as a kid his father had told him that "money burned a hole in his pocket."
I had an instant flash of recognition. That was one of the things that my family told me, too! In all the years I've invested in getting free of the "stuff' about money and becoming conscious of the negative messages I had gotten about money and wealth, I had never dredged up this particular one!
What a delightful collection of synchronicities. It is amusing me greatly to reflect on how I became conscious of one more piece. It is also delighting me that the emotional charge that has been there is gone. No discomfort was associated with the recollection, just an "Oh, isn't that interesting! I heard that, too. And it has no power over me now."
Poof! Gone! Bye Bye Struggle!
