How many of you check you daily horoscope or lovescope? How many of you believe in them? Personally, I've always been fascinated with them; it was nice to know that my 'fate was mapped out' and whatever mistakes I made didn't matter as much because it was 'my desiny' to do so.
It was fun to see what was next for me and somewhere along the line I depended on them. If my 'daily horoscope' said I was going to have a bad day, then I'd be cranky, if it said I'd fall in love or excel in a work environment; I'd be disappointed...and cranky. As you can see, they weren't really working out.
Then one day I stopped (I was having a major 'you can do anything' day. Seriously, I could have delivered a speech Marvin McFadden-style.) and I thought to myself: 'I'm letting a computer generated paragraph determine my life. Really?' It's one thing to read them and stuff, but to actually follow them to the letter? Not what I wanted to do, I want to make my own way in life. All this coming from a person who was kind of notorious for just bobbing along and not really enjoying life; I'm on my way to 'living life to the full'!
All that said, I'd still like to see a psychic, just to see what they think my life will turn out to be.
Anyway, as a reaction to a post written by the lovely Eleanor over at Mirror of My World, I'm going to write three good things about my day. (You can find the post here.)
- I got brought a mug of coffee when I woke up!
- I got the last slice of toffee cake!
- The time flew by at work!
What good things happened to YOU today?
Keep safe and keep smiling!
