Every now and again the universe shows us the way to our desires!

Desire

My daughter Julia wants to go to the premier of New Moon in LA. We have entered a number of contest including What Drives Edward, sponsored by Volvo at: http://www.volvocars.com/newmoon/Pages/default.aspx”>
Julia was web surfing looking for info on Robert and Kristen’s budding new relationship, when I glanced over and began laughing. She was reading a report of Jennie Garth confirming that they were indeed dating. It was the picture accompanying the article that had caught my eye. When I asked Julia who Jennie was with in the picture she replied “her husband”. I told her to look again but it still wasn’t registering with her.
Now there is more to this story, so I will have to give you a little history for it to all make sense.

First Degree

Julia studied with a fabulous vocal coach here in our community for a couple of years, her name is Ronnie Minnis. One of our local churches opens their doors to Ronnie so she can showcase her students twice a year. The night of Julia’s first showcase she was so nervous that I thought we weren’t going to get her to go on stage. Somehow she found the courage and she got up in front of that church full of people and sang her heart out. I was so proud of her knowing what it took for her to conquer her fear.

Second Degree

Jennie Garth happens to be a good friend of Ronnie’s, and her oldest daughter was a student of Ronnie’s as well. On that fateful night as the evening came to a close, Jennie approached Julia. She gave her a hug and told her that she knew how nervous she was and that she did an amazing job. She then declared that she was Julia’s #1 fan. Now according to Ronnie this event was unsolicited, but either way it was the praise that would forever change the course of Julia’s life.

Third Degree

Julia had never connected the dot’s that Carlisle (Peter Facinelli) was Jennie’s husband. She was actually less than six degrees away from a path that might hold a possibility to fulfilling her desire.

Bottom Line

Every success story I’ve ever heard was just a case of connecting the dots. If we look closely and pay attention, six degrees is really all there is that separates us from what we truly desire.
The One Red Paper Clip experiment is an inspiring example of this as well.

Whether it is a ticket to New Moon, a house, a business, traveling, going to school, etc., the possibilities are endless when we are present and use a little creativity and ingenuity!
