A New Earth


Just in case anyone has/has not noticed--My last entry was in February. LOTS has happened since then. Mainly, moved out of my apartment with my ex that I shared for the past 2&1/2 years & living on my own in NYC! Another major event is that I turned 30! eek!! Please-- I swear, if anyone mentions SATC i'm going to have to vomit.

But its true, life (as I knew it) has changed in so many ways. One of the books that has really helped me through the past few months is A New Earth. Yes, I know.. another Oprah book. **sigh** But believe me, its not as hokey as The Secret! The basic principle is that it teaches people to live in the NOW. It has helped me tremendously in figuring out the meaning of true happiness. To appreciate life and to be content you must live in the present. Nothing is certain --worrying about the future or the past won't change a thing. The only reality is the NOW. Its hard to live like that.. (especially in neurotic/ADD/self-absorbed NYC) but i'm learning. As for right now... its working! Lets see... its either this or old DVD's of SATC!~
