"People are often unreasonable, irrational and self centered; forgive them anyway. If you are kind, people may accuse you of selfish, ulterior motives; be kind anyway. If you are successful, you will win some unfaithful friends and some genuine enemies; succeed anyway. If you are honest and sincere, people may deceive you; be honest and sincere. What you spend years creating, others could destroy overnight; create anyway. If you find serenity and happiness, some may be jealous; be happy anyway. The good you do today, will often be forgotten; do good anyway. Give the best you have and it may never be enough; give your best anyway. In the final analysis, it is between you and God; it was never between you and them anyway." - Mother Theresa

My Sixth Sense



In Elementary, I was a Stansbury Tiger. (woot woot - proud of my roots) I was in 3rd or 4th Grade when this happened. Maybe even 5th. Each week we would go to the Library and have our Librarian read us a Storybook and then after, we would go and check out one or two books of our own to take home to read.

In the Library, on one of the bookshelves there was a display of this book along with its corresponding doll. So... That doll would hold that book. It was just a display for decoration and wasn't a choice to be checked out.

One day... The book went missing.

I'm pretty sure the Librarian was secretly crying her eyes out everyday. lol Because at the end of everyday, the last 15 min to be exact, while that book was missing, two people from a chosen 4th Grader Class would be given the chance to go to the Library to find the missing book. Who ever found the book would be given a prize. The prize was 2 Worlds Famous Chocolate Bars and a Soda. lol LAME!

Well, one day, I got picked to go search for the book.

I remember that day so clearly.

I was walking around looking through shelf after shelf. And I get this weird feeling.
- You know when your watching The Voice and a contestant starts their song and not even 10 seconds into their song all 3 chairs slam their I WANT YOU buttons and turn around. - You know that feeling you get?
That's the feeling I'm feeling while I'm looking for the book.

I literally start saying in my head, "I'm gonna find this book".. That feeling was telling me this.

I get to those spinning shelves, the ones that hold like 4 or 5 shelves of books and would spin in a circle. ( You know which ones I'm talking about)

I start spinning it and spinning it and that feeling - yes that "The Voice" feeling.. I get that feeling again... just X5.

There is was. I found it! On the spinning shelf.

I got my prize and I left the Library with a super happy Librarian. While I was walking home that day, I didn't care for the candy or soda. I couldn't stop thinking about -that feeling. I thought to myself, "how did I know I was gonna find the book?"

That's my sixth sense. =0 (don't try and call it a lucky feeling, cause it's not) lol

I only bring up my sixth sense because I've been feeling it lately. I applied for a higher position at work... and bam! I got it. lol

Feeling super cool these days. =)
