One day, I sat down in the new apartment on the floor (I let him keep the furniture) and I collapsed and laid down and cried. Nothing was working right. Obstacles and red tape and trouble resolving the petty stuff. I felt so sorry for myself and then I looked out the huge picture window at the beautiful peaceful view of the desert and I started to laugh. I realized that it looked like a pathetic scene from a romantic comedy in which the director throws obstacles at the heroine and in the end she has a happy ending. I realized it's going to be sticky, awkward, gawky, miserable and I'll be a helluva lot like Julia Roberts in "Pretty Woman" and then suddenly I felt happy about my trials. They were making me smarter, adaptable, wise, and able to reap the benefits when things went well. I rose above the petty stuff that was distracting me and became the heroine. Oh, and I found the handsome prince too, but he's just the icing on the cake, my new life being the cake.Sharon Dayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13609356325356264202noreply@blogger.com
