Really? It is supposed to ask you? Like "Hey, I was wondering if you wanted to get this job that you're applying for?" I feel like Life would have a deep but creepy voice. hmmm I don't know about this status though. If you want something you should go get it. Move to a new place for it. Try harder to get it. Play harder. Work harder. Want to be in shape? You have to work at it! Everyday! Take the stairs instead of the elevator. Consciously decide to not have extra snacks before bed... everyday. Once in a while may be necessary for sanity purposes. I don't know, I've worked so hard I have never even thought about asking Life for what I want. Well not true, yesterday I was walking with Ava and it started to drizzle. We were still on the other side of the park and I basically begged for the rain to not come. We got lucky and it held off til later. Ava had just finally fallen asleep, and I would have been so sad to see her get wet with cold rain.
I think its different with religion, and praying, and talking with your chosen "higher power". Now while currently I do not have a higher power of choice, and I don't pray so often, and church is not in my realm of weekly actions, I still know that religion may have some insight into Life taking into consideration what you want. I learned that whatever is supposed to happen to you will, and if you are a good person, do good things, make tons of sacrifices, don't eat an hour before mass, no meat on Fridays, say your prayers before dinner, and always put others before yourself, then Life will work out in your favor. Now, I haven't quite seen that work out successfully for anyone yet, but its what I was taught. I like the idea of asking for things that you want, and saying thanks for them before they are even there. Being grateful for what you do not even have yet, and then unexpectedly they may turn up without you realizing it. I like that idea. But Life is just supposed to ask you what you want? No way! You need to do the work and put in the effort. Make it happen.
It turns out for the Charleston County school district that I have to reapply. By tomorrow. But they should have about 100 job openings next week, so I am pretty pumped about that!
