Year of the Dragon

Angie Chinese New Year, Hope, Manifesting, Wishing

Dear Universe, My friend emailed me the other day and delivered some good news about the Chinese New Year.   “It’s the year of the water dragon, which they say is a year for wish manifestation!” Granted I have never given much thought to the Chinese New Year and what it means, but when I read her message, I felt …

Six Word Memoirs. Try It Out.

Angie Uncategorized

Dear Universe, Once again, Oprah has inspired me.  As I was reading the latest issue of O Magazine, I fell in love with the article on writing your own six word memoir.  A variety of different memoirs were submitted from all walks of life.  Some of my favorites?  “I live my best life now.”  “Loving heart for sale.  Like new.” …

Paris, Je t’aime

Angie Fun, Gratitude, Paris, Peace

Dear Universe, About six months ago I purchased a little notebook, one small enough to carry in my purse.  On the cover of it is a graphic of the Eiffel Tower surrounded by a pink heart and the sparkly words, “Paris, Je t’aime.”  As I paid for it, a vision popped into my head—me in Paris with that notebook in …
