10.   My class
11.   Teaching math
12.   That I can walk. I know two people who basically can’t. I am very lucky that I can.
13.   This. One of only 2 passages of Shakespeare’s that I’ve ever memorized:
(from the Merchant of Venice – part of Portia’s speech)
The quality of mercy is not strained;
It droppeth as the gentle rain from heaven
Upon the place beneath.
It is twice blest; It blesseth him that gives and him that takes:
'T is mightiest in the mightiest;
it becomes The throned monarch better than his crown:
His sceptre shows the force of temporal power,
The attribute to awe and majesty,
Wherein doth sit the dread and fear of kings;
But mercy is above this sceptred sway;
It is enthronèd in the hearts of kings,
It is an attribute to God himself;
And earthly power doth then show likest God's
When mercy seasons justice.
14.   That I shared it with my principal today
15.   And that she appreciated getting it
16.   That I really DID start fresh Tuesday morning after our big meeting Monday afternoon.
17.   And every morning now, really.
18.   The EPIPHANY last Tues. at lunch! Like a actor who is “an overnight success,” it didn’t’ all HAPPEN that day. But it all CLICKED that day. I became allowed (when honestly, became AWARE that I’m allowed) to take the reigns over my own life!!
19.   And now it is Saturdayl Huge. Huge huge huge hugge huge. So glad I saw this today! Living the Law of Attraction / The Secret
What is it you really want? What is the outcome you want? Your job is to hold to the outcome of what you want, and to feel the outcome of what you want, and to feel the outcome as though it is here now. That is your job. The HOW it will come about is the Universe’s work. So many people trip up on this and try and work out the how. (The Secret Daily Teachings)

85.   The years I used to walk on the Rockefeller estate. Before it was open to the public. Happy Rockefeller lived there, and allowed this group of joggers to use her property, not near the house, and it had 50 miles of trail! I would break off from the group to walk. It was great! Then we would meet up.
86.   The time I got lost there! But didn’t panic!
