Yes! I manifested, yeah! To blog or not to blog?

I manifested! 

and the truth is: I wasn't even aware of it!

Some time ago I went with my sister to an exposition. We would have lunch together and we found a restaurant that advertised "ray wings" as today's special. I dote on ray wings and it was delicious. Back home I googled ray wings and read that they are in season till the end of March.

We decided to go to the seaside, have ray wings, stay 1 night in a hotel and take some fish home. I found some nice hotels with parking but my husband kept saying: let's wait. When my husband says: let's wait, I know he has feelings that something isn't right so I didn't insist and put all fish and seaside ideas way back in my memory. And what happened: tooth problems! My husband spent about 3 weeks going back and forth to the dentist.

Last Monday, early in the morning my daughter phoned. The weather has been incredibly nice the last days and she had a very strong desire to see the sea, feel the wind, walk barefooted in the sand, let the dog runto his fill. But her husband had a meeting and couldn't go so she asked if we would care to go. We had nothing to do and  she picked us up and we drove the 150 km to the sea. It was low tide and we walked about 500 m to the waterline; the sea was an incredible nice blue!

 the water was very cold, even the dog jumped back feeling the cold  water. The beach was almost empty, 2 little girls in pink dresses playing in the sand, a dozen people walking their dog and the 4 of us: my daughter with dog, my husband and me. Filou who has macho character traits, was led by the nose by a very fast female greyhound; they ran rounds and rounds of big circles till they were exhausted.

The short walk made us hungry and within 5 minutes we saw a restaurant that permitted dogs and had "ray wings" as today's special. Was I even lucky! The 3 of us had ray wings in butter sauce with capers; Filou is a terrible beggar but the running on the beach had exhausted him and we ate in peace.

Lunch finished, we went to the beach again, did some walking and returned home. Short but we returned loaded with energy and a head full of nice ideas.

It is only  3 days later that I had my aha-moment: I did manifest! I went to the seaside and had ray wings! Lesson to learn: when you give up on something, when you don't push, your dreams come true.


To blog or not to blog!


as I wrote a couple posts ago, this blog leads to nowhere. I spent a lot of time and effort and I don't get what I want. Comes the question: should I stop or should I continue? I got paper and a pencil and asked myself questions: what happens if I don't blog? what happens if I don't Pinterest? and the answer is: nothing will happen and what's more: I 'll have freed  time up to do other things. Not only will I have more time to BE, but my head will be cleared of all the rumble around it.

Making this decision was scary: a jump in the unknown! Immediately I felt better, relaxed and now that I am writing about this decision, I am asking myself: what was so scary? what was I scared of? the unknown is the answer!

I might continue posting pictures of my products. I have to take pictures anyway so I might as well do something with them.

So my dear reader, thank you for reading my posts, supporting me thereby. If you're interested in pictures of my creations and some anecdotes, keep looking out for my posts.
