It's no Secret

"The Secret" is based on a spiritual theory that espouses visualizing and asking the universe for what you want. I just can't get there, but this week was as good an argument for it as any.

I've been inwardly and fervently longing for a more organized and energized feel from my grassroots political organization, "The Calaveras County Ron Paul 2008 Meetup Group." I submitted several suggestions for improvement and change to the group's leader and the membership in general. Assent was quick and unanimous. The timing must have been ripe.

Also, I have been more and more interested in entry-level entertainment skills and issues. Comedy, theater and the like. Two days ago I got a call from a local do-gooder who is active in this area, and she solicited my interest in a project to be named later, including stand-up comedy and emcee opportunities. I leapt upon it, at least in theory, and I hope it turns into something I can sink my teeth into.

The future is a little more exciting. I'm looking forward to seeing how it turns out.
