Reaffirming my resolve.

A couple weeks ago I was spending some time with two good friends when they decided to read cards for each other. Having not had my cards read in quite some time(the reason for that is another story entirely) I decided I wanted to have a reading done. I chose a spread that is designed to answer direct questions. My questions was " Is this move the right thing for me to do?". I didn't ask the question because I was doubting my decision, or because I was told it was a giant mistake. Iasked it because I needed reassurance that it was the right thing for me.

Before I go into what the reading told me, I have to explain my view of "reading cards". I don't believe they have any magical power. I don't think they are "evil". I think they simply help you consider your situation and life more deeply. For me, they help me focus on an issue and consider all sides of it. They are an aid for self-realization. The only power they have is the credence you pay them.

Now that I've said that, I'll tell what the reading said.

Basically, it helped me realize that I came to this decision because I am a dreamer and I always have been but I rarely make my dreams reality because I fail to follow through. I was also told that I needed to take the criticism I was receiving and make sure I listened, but didn't let it sway me. I needed to remember where it was coming from so I could understand why it was coming and so I could not hold a grudge against my dissenters.

It went on to affirm that I was making a good decision and that I had prepared as well as I possibly could and that I would have to make sure that I kept my head on my shoulders and didn't lose sight of the larger goals to keep this move successful.

While I can understand that most of the people that will read this entry won't understand why I give this reading any credibility or had it done in the first place, I am just excited that I was able to really come to terms with my decision and understand it in ways I don't know that I otherwise would have.
