The Winter Blues...

As winter drags on and on and never seems to end, I find myself constantly searching for something exciting to look forward to. When you dread going outside, it's hard to have energy or motivation for anything. Last weekend during a trip to Atlanta, it was almost 70 degrees and the sun was shining. I had almost forgotten what it was like to not wear a coat and just soak up the sun. It's an instant mood booster! But of course, that didn't last long. It's back to snow and cold. I think that weekend of glorioius sunshine was God's way of reminding me what is coming. Not only weather-wise, but metaphorically speaking as well. For some reason, I have had so many good feelings about 2011. I have had dreams about wonderful things happening to some of my best friends. I've been given what I think are signs, or clues, about certain events. I can't help but feel like that little glimpse of warmth and sunshine in Atlanta in the middle of winter was God saying "It might be cold and dreary right now, but I can make things bright and cheery when you least expect it..." Okay, so I have to admit that sounds pretty cheesy, but I like to see the good in situations. I am a major believer in the Law of Attraction. If you truly believe something with all your heart and constantly think good thoughts about it, you will have a positive outcome. So in the dead of winter, let's all remember that the clouds will pass and the sun will come out when the time is right. Until then, think happy thoughts! :)
