“About Me Update” January 16, 2012
I’ve received everything that I declared when I started my blog three years ago! Including a love that will last a life time. We just had the most perfect wedding with our children and parents and it turned out exactly as we had imagined. The weather was a perfect sixty eight degree sun shiny day on the beach. The winds blew lightly. Our younger daughters lined the path, in the natural sand dunes filled with sea grass, with simple, but beautiful colorful flowers that sat in clear bottles tied to wooden sticks. A harp was played softly that blended beautifully with the sounds of the ocean. Mike’s children and grand children walked out with him, with black suits and hot pink vest chosen by our youngest son, and I was escorted by my son and daughter. The ceremony was perfect as we spoke our words, and choked back tears of happiness. After we took a walk barefoot along the beach, and then went to our white tent where we had amazing food catered. The tent glowed with with white lights and a few sheer white panels of fabric that blew slightly with the breeze. The table was set by our mothers. White linen table cloths with faded purple linen napkins and pink and white dishes, candles, flowers, antique mismatched silver plated silverware, and antique crystal wine glasses etched with flowers. Music was provide by one of our son’s, that set the mood just right, and as the sun went down, the night cooled, and another son took charge of the bonfire. Young and old sat around the fire with laughter and family love. Unexpectedly people stopped in front of us on the beach and released three or four paper hot air balloons and we watched the glow of the light flicker off over the ocean. It was something I had wanted to do, but did not get around to doing. I received the wedding I wanted. I received the man that I wanted. And, I’m looking forward to reliving it again in the professional photos that our oldest daughter and her man took. And, if there anything like there other wedding photos taken, they too will be perfect.
Now however, it’s time to set the intention for more new beginnings. To speak for the life that I want to continue to receive, and to receive more of the life that I want to have.
Some think it’s silly, some say it’s woo woo, I say… it works! I said in the first declaration “about me” that if I was going to dream, I might as well dream big. So that’s what I’m going to continue to do. If I’m going to create my future,…I might as well make it be the best that I desire. I encourage you to do the same. Live YOUR Just Right Life!
This new year, or new day, or new moment is as good as time as any to start. I’m going to wake up every morning and look in the mirror and say; Good Morning Beautiful! I’m So Blessed that my family and myself are Healthy, Prosperous, and live a life at Peace. Today is going to be another Great Day! Opportunities always come my way – Life keeps unfolding in a better than imagined way, and everyday gets better and better. Thank you! Thank you! ….Thank you, Thank you, Thank you!

“About me” Update July 2011
Wow it’s been a little over two years since I started my blog, and I’ve been thinking it’s time to update my “About Goldi” section, and after just reading it, I can’t believe how far I’ve come, and how I’ve received everything that I wanted for my “just right” life, except maybe not in the exact way that I was envisioning it.
For example I’ve had sooooo many friends and family around me. But when you’ve come from a drought, it’s felt like a sudden, heavy, rain shower that’s lasted for days and days, leaving you feeling totally unprepared. When what I was thinking of was more of a steady drizzle that you see coming, but it’s perfect, just the way it is.
I talked of traveling, and in the last month I’ve been to the city of Santiago, and the desert of San Pedro de Atacama, Chile, where I stayed in Hostels, sand boarded, saw a beautiful cactus forest, and spent time in a natural hot spring. I walked on the vast an seemingly never ending salt flats. I stood lake side and watched pink flamingos fly overhead as the sun was setting, with the awe inspiring views of the volcanic mountains in the distance mimicked back in the reflection on the lake. I saw magnificent sunsets while at grand canyons and valleys, and stood at night, looking up at more stars than I’ve ever seen. Where just being there, makes you feel the grateful energy of being alive. I toured the Southern states of the USA going through Florida, Georgia, South Carolina, North Carolina, Kentucky, Alabama, and finding the small city there, with the coolest tag line – Boaz, Alabama – The City of Possibilities. I ended my travels in the white sands of Bimini, Bahamas, where we relaxed, then snorkeled and swam in the turquoise waters, in what seemed like our own life size fish bowl.
And, I did find a love that I’m sure will last a lifetime. He’s like what I imagine a prince to be, from all of my fairy-tale books of my youth. He is handsome, kind, caring, compassionate, loving, brings me coffee in bed, and says he will always love and take care of me. “I promise, I promise, I promise”.
I’m writing twenty books in my head, and a few blog post online, and I’m sure the books will get on paper when the time is right. When I started writing the blog I was evasive on my “about me” page mainly because I was at the lowest point I could possibly get. I had made a small fortune, and then lost it all – houses, acres of land, and cash. I had been living away from my family for 30 years, and then single for ten. Sacrificing for my job, my children, my community, and my friends, hoping I was making life better, I was generous to many, and yet was so tired and alone. I was so unhappy, I knew I couldn’t remain focused on that, and ever live a happy life. I needed a shift. I needed Happy. Happy thoughts, Happy words, Happy news, and thats how this blog was born – and it worked. I lost myself in success and found myself in my failure.
I was looking for my perfect life. I believed it was possible, and then I started living it.
My hope is that you, and each and every person that reads my blog, finds there unique and perfect life. And, that what I write, helps, and inspires you to live a life that’s “just right” for you.

I am searching for the perfect life for myself. A life that is not so big, or so little, but a life that’s “just right” for me. I dream of writing and traveling, of having lots of friends and family around. Having a secure financial future, and of finding that one true love… a love that last a lifetime.
A fairy tale right! I know…laughing, but if you are going to dream you might as well dream big. So this blog is my attempt to figure things out, a step towards making it happen, and hopefully helping people along the way. Hey at least I am writing already 
I hate to tell you more about me at this time. I believe that we are all influenced through our own personal histories, and then perceive the information given to us differently because of it. Regardless of what I have gone through in my past, or what my current situation is. It is not what I want to focus on. We all have our stories; especially in these tough economic times, but where do we go from here? What is our future? What do we want out of life? If we could write our own perfect story for ourselves, what would that be?
So let’s be positive – Inspire ourselves and each other – Pick ourselves up and, create the “just right” lives we want.
Cheers to a Great Day!
Love, Goldi
