The Grass is Always Greener

It’s pretty early in the morning and it seems to be one of the few times I can get some peace.

I slept well last night — probably fell asleep around 11pm — and woke up early with the sunrise. I like it; this is how it should be back home.

As I write, I’m enjoying a tiny mango (the cute, sweet ones that I love when I go to Jamaica) and thinking about how great Fiji is. It’s hard for me to believe that people actually get to grow up here — I wonder what it’s like, but I guess the grass is always greener.

Fiji was definitely one of the highlights of my life so far. If you’re thinking about going, do so.

Foolish Fools

My journal is where I’m able to voice my exasperation with some people. Today, it’s all about the foolish fools that we must suffer in everyday life.

Something for nothing, that’s your game. You feel that everyone else in the world is indebted to you and must bow before your knees. Well, my dear fool, that is a foolish notion. The world does not revolve around you any more than it revolves around me; only your world revolves around you. What I’m trying to say is, I’m sick of your whining, complaining, and misguided notions. So, no more. I’m done. And if you keep this up, everyone else soon will be as well.

Truly, I’m trying to suffer fools well, but it doesn’t seem to be working. Maybe tomorrow will be brighter; no, I know tomorrow will be brighter.

Finding Mr. Right

Sometimes it’s good to laugh at oneself.

I know I’m not ugly — for all intents and purposes, I’m actually pretty. Men find me attractive and I’m sure I’ll have no trouble getting asked out by Mr. Right one day. Heck, I’ve already been asked out twice by two absolutely wrongs. There’s still hope.

Dreaming Big

admin — Sat, 07 Apr 2007 12:16:19 +0000

I want wealth and power, but I also want the sense and knowledge to wield them both wisely. I want to travel and visit Europe, Asia, Australia, South America, all over the world. I want to learn at least seven languages fluently. I want to be daring and exciting and when it’s my time to leave this earth, I want to be remembered by many as a good person — a person who made a difference in the world for the better.

Well, it looks as though I’m beginning to realize my dreams as I’ve already holidayed in Australia and Fiji and this year it will be Hong Kong, China. Not only that, but business travel has been extensive along with the growth of my business. It does pay to dream big…

Starting the New Year

admin — Fri, 06 Apr 2007 12:06:41 +0000

Reliving a New Year can be amazing, especially if you’ve made significant changes in the year past. It’s amazing just how much my life has changed in just one short year.

It’s the first day of the New Year. A fresh start and I am transforming this year into one of the greatest years for myself overall.

I will be happy, I will choose happiness. Today I am loving, I will carry love for all as I go through the day. Today I will take inspired actions and enjoy the day. I will do what I’d like to do this year.

Wisdom from the Past

admin — Thu, 05 Apr 2007 21:06:40 +0000

It’s nice to go through your previous journals and review just how far you’ve come in that time. For the next few weeks, that’s probably what I’ll be doing here, pulling snippets from my past journal entries.

And to get the ball rolling, here’s a nice bit of wisdom I stumbled across today:

…maybe it’s just time for me to take a step backwards and look at the big picture. It’s time for me to ask for a bit of divine intervention. Instead of focusing on what I don’t want, I need to focus on what I do want.
