I am grateful .. yes I am!

[Lydie>--]

I don’t expect anyone to read this honestly; it’s a note to self. Rambling on about various things. I am grateful for my life… ------ As promised to myself, I shall blog today about the good things that I have manifested in the last 10 years or so. Things that I am proud of etc. So growing up .. miss Lydie always had this very independent mind. When I was 12 yrs old I told my parents that the day I turned 16 yrs old I would leave their house and live all alone LOL. Foolishness. I grew up and after having to put myself through college while working to pay for myself, I realized that life wasn’t so easy. Without my knowing however, next thing you know .. At 20 years old I moved out on my own (had a roommate but) 8 hours drive away from my whole entire family. When I look back it’s the Universe that had granted me that long wish I had to move out. I shortly after bought a brand new car 2000 Honda civic… didn’t listen to my father who told me not to buy it brand new (and NOT stick shift) but my baby is still strong 9 years later J I am eternally grateful for that car. I lived in London Ontario 3.5years (8 hours drive away from my family) and than I got really tired. Manifested a job opportunity in Toronto.. the city where things were happening. Manifested great and loyal new friends. Lived alone for a while until my brother moved with me. At that point, I got a new job and shortly after I got promoted to Team Lead position. While work life was hectic, I was going to school part time (HR Management) and manifested this AMAZING Company. My outmost inner self has always wanted to own my own business. So that was my 1st experience. Mind you I had a 50/50 partner but I loved working with her and all. It was good. I was dreaming HUGE. Her and I were going to conquer the music world. We were going to be bigger than SONY music – we were going to be the female JAY-Z of Canada.. Oh my gosh I can still feel this amazing feeling … However, my partner decided to stop and long story short, everything was just let go. I later pursued the idea of having my own business working with Prinmerica (insurance) and than had another business with my current roommate and that too failed. But I will never give up that idea. I will own my business and I will be bigger than my wildest dreams. I (this no longer chronological)… In my life, looking back, I have taken some risks. Like traveling alone to New York to meet someone I had only seen a picture of. The year I bought my car, I also met this other person who decided to come visit me all the way from North Carolina USA, we drove to Montreal and than at some later time I went to visit him all alone and we traveled to Florida together. I love also how I traveled a little bit and definitely want to do much more traveling. My 1st trip without my parents, 19 years old (just before I moved away), I went to Florida with 3 other girls. Stayed there for a month. Rented a car. Had a wild bunch of fun. 2nd trip, with my best friend Fabiola – went to Cuba. Went to New York many times, New Jersey, Maryland many times. Than I went to Cuba again with my sister and another friend. Than to Trinidad (8 years I was dreaming of that moment). Than back to Cuba all alone. I have been blessed with meeting many amazing people. 5 years I worked as an event coordinator (on the side) planned other 10 major concerts and parties in Toronto. Became somewhat “famous” lol within that little community. Did many radio interviews. Met many stars and dealt with them like they were my neighbor (wasn’t intimidated by them). I designed some posters and flyers for many people (although I am far from being a professional). I learned to speak Spanish (still learning). I was blessed to come to know of the Secret and LOA. I am blessed to be on this site – a continuation of the growth I have yet to experience in my life. Took many salsa dance class years and years (thanks to my sister). I am a volunteer fitness instructor. I am very active in my “church”. I do lots of voluntary work. I’ve been on construction builds. I have a Building Systems Engineering Technology degree. I’ve mingled with management level people a lot in my humble little working life. I’ve had the most amazing relationship with my family, not perfect but in comparison to many people.. I’ve been blessed!!! This is not luck. I’ve attracted all this. I’ve learned from my parents and leaned the game of life. This is getting long but all that to say that, although I haven’t accomplished ¼ of what I wanna do yet and although there are many things I wished had happened already, I can’t complain. This blog is a note to self. I need to remind myself of how strong of a person I am. Through all this I’ve had so many problems like everyone else. But I have never given up on myself. Whatever I want I can get. I am grateful for I mean ev-e-ry single last thing I have, I received, I experienced for it all contributes to who I am and where I am going. In all it’s imperfection, my life is perfect. I need to remember that. I am in control, never shall I complain cause I have the keys to all the doors, to unleash all I desire. AMEN

hello Lydia
I was reading your graitude, I was caught by the beauitful blue sky in your picture, I am on my first season, and I l learning some of my practices, now I understand how to manifest things in my life. I know how to attract the inspiring things around. I am so peaceful, between me and my higher power, I choose to call God. I not longer have to feel stuck, when I look at the picture and read your blog, I am grateful.
