“Superstition is the poetry of life” Johann Wolfgang Von Goethe, The Maxims and Reflections of Goethe

“The only real valuable thing is intuition” Albert Einstein

Ok. I admit it. I wish on stars, cross my fingers and try very hard not to step on cracks. And, yes, I always make a wish when I blow out my birthday candles and kiss the clock at 11:11 or any other time that suits my fancy! I believe in intuition, women’s or otherwise and I will go out of my way so that nothing will ever come between me and the people I care about when we are walking together.I also have little games I like to play that in my mind will predict an outcome for me. For instance: If I get 3 green lights in a row, then I won’t have to do something I’ve dreaded. Or: If Pandora plays a certain song when I am thinking about someone or something, the words of the song will define the situation. What can I say? I’m a little strange but when it comes between choosing to be like this or being more logical, I choose magical because….as the Black Eyed Peas so aptly put it “I’ve got a Feeling”

“Superstition is to religion what astrology is to astronomy: the mad daughter of a wise mother”

Voltaire

“I feel there are two people inside me- me and my intuition.  If I go against her, she’ll screw me every time, but if I follow her, we get along quite nicely”  Kim Basinger

Sticky notes!

“If a cluttered desk is a sign of a cluttered mind, of what, then, is an empty desk a sign?” 
― Albert Einstein

Lately I’ve been reading a lot of inspirational, motivational quotes. Many of them published by groups with the word “positive”  as part of their name or description. They’re good. They are REALLY good. When I find one I especially like, I put it on a “sticky note” and post it on my desk top. Sometimes I write it on a Post-it® – and put it somewhere I can see at appropriate moments.I have bags of these all over my house.  I love these little sayings.For the most part, they make me want to be that person. The hope, the strength, the morality….all of it so admirable. Sometimes I look around and recite each one in my collection. Almost like a mantra.They make me happy. I have several posted on my Facebook page. Check it out!

“I have notes in my bathroom, yellow notes, and I stick ’em on the mirror, things that happened that were uplifting boosters for me. Notes that say, “Today is special, make today count.” And then I have one note on the mirror in the middle that says, “Look at the other notes.”
