Sometimes a book just calls to you. It sits on the book store shelf and all but jumps into your hand. That is what happened with the last two books. The one I am reading now..Life Magic by Laura Bushnell is teaching me something. Something that I needed to learn after reading Biting Back by Claudia Cunningham.
Biting Back guides you to seeing the inner and outer energy vampires. Those people or even things that take hold of your life, that suck the living energy right out of you. That book injected a strength into me that I have tried for 5 years to gather. It did it in just a few weeks. I refused to read that book quickly, after all it was/is a guide.
Life Magic reminds you of who you were before all the drama. Reminding you of childlike enthusisam, something miserable, negative people really don't like; or can't handle for long.
This book is taking me back to the days - the years when I could just flip my hair at ignorance, petty nonsense and negativity. And --- it's doing it a day at a time.
Heck - in all reality I had a terrible weekend and yet this book kept me optimistic.
Next weekend will be a better one. Today the phrase 'it is what it is' doesn't fit. Today, the phrase will be 'it is what I make of it'.
