Who knows where my next guidance will come from

Stopped by the library and went to the magazine rack and picked up People Magazine:  Jay-Z famously stated, "Everything in your life, it's not happening to you, it's happening for you," emphasizing a mindset shift where challenges are viewed as opportunities for growth rather than personal setbacks. This perspective reframes negative experiences as lessons, often cited to encourage resilience and a positive outlook on adversity  Can't make my life up.  Cosmic but I did not follow it to the letter yesterday.  Got a call from the daughter of my mother's maid of honor asking me if I wanted to join in at their family reunion of all her siblings and a cousin on Sunday in a couple of towns over...too much.  Had to decline the invite.  Could not put that in the "happening for me" category.  Will keep that invite to myself.  

AND am just getting to my machine at 6:37 a.m. this morning.  Just sent a birthday email to one of my former Houston bosses.  Nothing on my paper calendar today - good thing since half my day is gone already.  :)

Yesterday - watched my Wed shows, walked, massage, talked to TX/NM friend, got a call from sister #6 to get email for sister #1's gentleman caller so she could send a birthday greeting, read.  Should finish my walk & talk book club book today. 

Today - listening to Wed BOS meeting as we speak, move on to Thursday shows, walk.  

Discovered a couple of places yesterday that I will make note.  East Mountain House in Lakeville.  And Red Willow in Taos.   Near and far places of kindness and care.

You need to focus less on the little things that have been going wrong and more on the big things that still bring a great deal of joy to your existence. Friends and relatives will take their cue from your mood, so laugh long and loud.

Gravitate toward people who inspire responsible action, sweet Libra. Peers have great influence over you and vice versa, while the Leo Moon aspects Saturn and Mars. Use these vibes to reinforce goals that need some extra attention. It's also important to recognize whether social gatherings have been zapping your energy. When planning with friends this weekend, prioritize activities that might improve your balance. You'll be in a flirtatious mood once Luna and Mercury align midafternoon, marking the perfect excuse to chat with your crush. Be generous with compliments to elevate interactions, and stay open to new connections.

 You probably know that you don't attain freedom in one fell swoop, but rather bit by bit as you go through life, Libra. Perhaps you've been feeling as if you don't have enough freedom. Over the next few days you could find the situations or people you need in order to liberate yourself. Don't forget that love is the greatest freedom of all. It could be time to make room for it in your life.

Have a good Friday.
