Hi guys!<\/p>\n

I have been feeling the ‘storm before the calm’ type of feelings recently. But I think I’ve grown a lot, and my perspective has changed dramatically. I’ve read The Secret<\/a> and The Power<\/a> plus many other books and practice The Magic<\/a> regularly as well. I have realized that things go 200% better if I feel grateful.<\/p>\n

I wanted to feel grateful for winning a beautiful piece of art. So the story goes, I recently moved back home. I cleared out one of the rooms and moved all my stuff in. Now, before I left my other place, I got rid of a lot of stuff. So when I had moved all my stuff in, I thought to myself that I would like to decorate and add more color.<\/p>\n

Anyway, a few days later, a friend of mine, whom I had only met not too long ago, invited me to an event on Facebook. He was auctioning off one of his artworks. He is a great artist and top bloke as well. I thought about how I would love this piece to go on my bedroom wall right in the middle. So I ended up buying some tickets one night.<\/p>\n

A few days ago, he posted a video on the event page showing him writing out everyone’s names on pieces of paper, one by one. Then he put the names in a jar, and when he picked out one piece of paper, it was my name! I was so excited. I had to double-check, lol.<\/p>\n

Thank you. Thank you. Thank you!<\/p>\n

This is a picture of the art work<\/a>. It’s done in pencil and ink.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
