Gratitude for Dark Moments

"It is 2:00am and Kim Burney and I are celebrating (no - not that kind of celebrating! - we weren't out partying - she's in Erie PA and I'm in Kingston ON Canada - we are still working) - we are celebrating "dark moments of the soul".

Not the real life tragedies - but moments - that 'in the moment' - seem frustrating and aggravating. You've had them! Kim and my relationship came out of a "dark moment".

I had a DVD freeze up in the middle of a seminar - I was embarrassed - didn't know how to fix it. Kim "just happened" to have a laptop and saved the day! - that had us packing up together. She told me she was a web designer. Wow - I was looking for a web designer! Our connection solved more than a DVD problem!

Last night we celebrated again! Access to our online course and course registrations have not been working well. We kept a positive attitude but it definitely blocked creativity. Kim got an email for an online course through Joe Vitale - an expensive online course. We were desperate - she took a leap of faith - paid the price. In 3 lessons, she got the solutions - and great ideas for future projects - great value!

Last night her instructor's recording equipment failed! YOU guessed it! Kim hooked up her HotRecorder - and offered it to the instructor. The instructor was grateful - now - Kim has a mentoring oppportunity with a grateful instructor! - more abundance than just the solution to a problem.

Free Will - you choose - focus on what's wrong - give up! OR - learn to ask- "What is the good that will come from this moment!" - and be excited about the possibilities... you will find them to be much richer than you ever imagined! Abundance arises out of dark moments!

Judy ... I love the way the universe deliveries those life lessons if we are only open to receiving and looking at things from a slightly different perspective! Thank goodness you and Kim did and how we have all benefitted!
