As some of you know, shortly after midnight on New Year's 2009, I got very sick all of a sudden and was incapacitated for that whole day. I was laying on an air mattress in the living room of my brother's apartment, contemplating what all this meant. People have attested that "mind over matter" works - I became a believer of that. I put things into a positive perspective, and had an overwhelming impression, that since this was happening to me - on the first of the new year, in a foreign environment, before a major road trip excursion - the rest of the year would be completely uphill and amazing and that great things were bound to happen. And lo and behold, I took that mindset and I was able to recuperate quickly; I think that was the most enjoyable experience of having the flu (I know, who thinks that the flu is enjoyable? I sure did, without it I wouldn't have experienced what I did), because of all these thoughts and impressions coming into my mind.
I realized also, that gaining a positive outlook on things from the previous few years, allowed me to have this great experience - a real blessing.
I don't know what will transpire this year, but I have a feeling it'll be freakin' awesome! :)
