being is believing

Sometimes I catch myself in disbelief that I have a child and a wife. Not that I’m upset or wish for anything different, but it’s funny how life turns out sometimes. I got exactly what I wanted, in a totally different manner than which I expected. And you see, that’s life. The end justifies the means. And I totally love it.

Kai is amazing. He was quite fussy today, completely overtired and resisting sleep. We went to watch a high-school basketball game with Isaac, and I think all the sound and commotion simply over-stimulated Kai, and got him into a restless state. But with some focused attention and love, Kai eventually fell asleep, which is allowing me to type this blog entry.

On another note, Erin and I and her sister and her fiancé are going to Harbor Nights at the Portofino Bay hotel on Friday night, courtesy of Rhonda at National. Harbor Nights is a quarterly wine tasting and jazz festival on the piazza of an seaside village on the Italian Riviera. In Orlando. I can’t wait. Erin’s mom jumped at the chance to baby-sit, and the breast-milk pumping has begun... let the good times roll!

I’ve come to realize that our true intentions always manifest, so it’s imperative to be absolutely clear on what our intentions actually are. I’ve found myself being very clear and intentional on what I want in a situation. I’m getting very clear on this. What it leads to is the old adage, which is actually very powerful in its simplicity: if you don’t ask for what you want, you’ll probably never get it. Or, put another way, ask and ye shall receive. In physics, we come to understand that reality comes in many forms, and one form of reality arises in communication. And the essence of communication is intention. Therefore, be very aware of your intentions, for they will become real. Or they won’t.

Until next time, keep your mind open and listen with your heart. Cheers!
