Feeling Better Mood
Thursday, June 18, 2009 | A Positive story

Thanks for all your cares and good wishes (is cares a real word in this instance?).

 

I am feeling much better.

 

Went to a DBSA (Depression Bipolar Support Alliance) meeting Tueday night and it really helped.

 

I didn't really have the gas but thought SCREW IT ... I needed a meeting.

 

It was so great to see everyone!  And they made a big deal out of seeing me (awwwww).

 

At the break, the leader, Carlos, gave me a sealed envelope and said, "It's from the group."  At the end of the meeting he said, "It's gas money."

 

HOW SWEET!

 

 I didn't want to be crass opening the envelope right there so I waited until I got to my car.

 

I look in and see a $10 bill.  But, wait .. there are too many 0's.

 

It was $100 bill.  TOO MUCH!

 

I called Carlos and got his vm and thanked him over and over ... saying it was too much, etc

 

On the way home from the meeting it hit me.  Everything is going to be OK.  It may come in fits and starts and little bits at a time but it is going to be OK.

 

Feels so good.

    See? It's your Karma. When you fight against all odds,and you KEEP FIGHTING,this is what happens. You are staying positive. Positive breeds positive. Just as negative breeds negative. Try to make sure day by day that your glass is half full-never half empty.
    I'm very proud of you!!! :) Also,remember to give to someone else that might be struggling with their own demons. :)

    Thats cool that you see everything is going to be ok. How we think something is supposed to look like is completly different the God gives it to us. It is none of our busniss how it comes to us or when, when we let go that we control our lives, then goodness always comes to us if we ask and get out of the way and let God. Just like your gas money, cool huh!
    Love Bharata
