I am a big believer in signs. I like little breadcrumbs along the path to help me know I'm headed in the right direction. My internal compass malfunctions sometimes too and sends me in circles so a little extra guidance is a bonus. My curiosity leads me to explore various new and interesting things and I'm always gaining new knowledge. For someone as expressive as I am, it's nice to have cool facts rattling around in my brain that can pop out at weird and unexpected times. I was always amazed with my father's ability to pull up cool information when we were out and about. He always gained my immediate attention when he would say "Did you know that..." I learned so much from him and I always wanted to be like him. Turns out that I am in fact quite a lot like him. When I'm out with my daughters or my friends and I see something that sparks the memory of an article I read, I find myself uttering the words "Did you know that..." I love to share what I've learned and while I can never be certain if the people I'm with actually listen to what I prattle about, I prattle on anyway. Recently a couple of my searches produced rather interesting and coordinating results that I took as signs. I was digging through my numerous desk drawers looking for notes on the book I'm writing and while I didn't find the notes, I did find 15 forever postage stamps I had almost forgotten I owned. This immediately sparked some ideas within my mind as to what I could use those stamps for and none of those ideas were as boring as mailing bills. I pay everything online anyway so that would just be silly. I knew I could use those stamps to get my name and talents out into the world somehow but I didn't quite know how. I placed the stamps on top of my desk and began poking around online for information important to where I want my future to lead. This search led me to beautiful pictures and intriguing details about somewhere I already love despite the fact that I've never physically been there. I've visited there through pictures from my dear friend and in my daydreaming and I began to see that my creative talents could help more people love the area as much as I do. Suddenly everything clicked in my brain and it became clear to me where these new signs were leading me. I know exactly what I'm going to use those stamps for and I've set my plan in motion. I've started my own personal campaign to achieve my dreams and I call it "15 stamps to Forever." Some people might dismiss all that has happened as coincidence and I understand that and accept that everyone has their own beliefs. For me though, the signs are helping me follow my heart. I believe in love and the power of dreams and if you do too I invite you to follow me on my journey...
