i just spent some time creating a dream board using Oprahs web site: http://www.oprah.com/article/spirit/inspiration/odreamboard and just got so revived and excited and filled with joy and hope. From that I revised my: "what i need to be happy list" it now looks like this:
I need to be connected to people /community / to a tribe
I need my space and quiet
I need to be creative
Sometimes I need to do nothing
I need to be productive and feel useful
I need to grow mentally and spiritually
I new to experience new things
I need to give love and get love
I need to be physically healthy (good food good exercise good sleep)
I need romance
I need someone to talk to
I need insightful feedback
I need to be connected to the environment
I need culture and times to dress up and be sophisticated
Periodically I need to go to the blue waters
I need music and dance
I need to be valued, appreciated and honored on occasion
I need to be making a difference
I need freedom to be fully me
I need the financial freedom to be generous
I need to the freedom to be content and still want it all
I need opportunities to fulfill my purpose:

The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, because he hath anointed me to preach the gospel to the poor; he hath sent me to heal the brokenhearted, to preach deliverance to the captives, and recovering of sight to the blind, to set at liberty them that are bruised Luke 4:18

And I need to: do what I love and when I stop loving it, stop doing it

What do you need to be happy?

Its all about the miracles!

So today the most marvelous thing happened. One of those absolutely wow moments.

Rich stopped to get breakfast at Hardees. It was "buy one get one free" breakfast meal. (It was cheaper than just buying one) SO he ate his,and decided to give the other one away. He stopped at one of his pool stores he buys from and shared his breakfast with someone there. He then went on his way. A few hours later, he was pulling into an apartment complex where he does work. And a police officer (Gaston County)pulled in behind him. At first he was a little nervous...... then.....

Now are you ready for this? She got out of the car and handed him lunch. She said "I just went to Burger King and bought a "two for one" deal. I only wanted one and wanted to share the other." He shared his story and they both had a moment of disbelief. What goes around DOES comes around.

WOw, I mean wow..... And he ended the story with..."and she was good looking too!"
