What can I say? Life does go on. This is probably one of the toughest decisions I have yet to make. Yes, I am leaving Miami after 10 years of freedom, going crazy, going wild, learning, growing and most important maturing.
I am a caterpillar, now ready to turn. I live for moments like this, or I used to. I forgot for many years how important things like this were to me. How they made me a better person? How they just completely engulfed my life with an emotion I did not know how to control. I was, free. Or am I free now? Have I been freeer in Miami than I was back home? I am so confused.
See what people don’t realize, is what they have, in the present. Why are we always looking, backwards and then sometimes forward for the answer. Especially when the answer is NOW? Nike has a slogan that almost the whole world knows, “Just do it!” I took the plunge.
2 weeks ago, I handed in my resignation. I no longer work full-time in South Florida. I am currently in the process of selling, packing, boxing, moving, donating, and obviously cherishing everything I have. It’s amazing what a guy keeps in his closet after 10 years. I came across a t-shirt I stole from my brother 10 years ago. I came across letter I had not read or remembered. I bumped into a gift given to me by someone so special, so special, I forgot about them. What a shame. Is this what age does to us? See the link?
I look outside my condo and see a great view. Green trees swaying in the wind, water rippling across Biscayne Bay, boats causing a traffic jam at the bridge. I will miss all of this. Will I? I’ve already forgotten that Really Special person, will I really remember This? Torn, I decide to move on. I’ve got a sweet deal, a sweet ride I have had, I have nothng to complain about. I wish this on anyone.
2006, bring it on. I look forward to the rest of it.

Marie and Pierre Curie discovered radium. Chemist John Walker invented the match. Physicist Wilhelm Roentgen was the first person to find out about X-rays. What do these great minds have in common? They all refused to take out any patents in connection with their innovations, believing that they shouldn’t make any profit on something that rightfully belongs to everyone. They’re your role models right now, Aquarius. Let them inspire you to give away your brilliance for free. (P.S. I probably shouldn’t tell you this, but there’ll be a big reward for you if you do what I suggest.)

A guy I met in a bar in New York’s Lower East Side discoursed at length on the psycho-spiritual meaning of *The Wizard of Oz.* “The Wicked Witch of the West was Dorothy’s greatest teacher,” he told me. “The witch’s animosity compelled her to learn new tricks, master her circumstances, and ultimately find her way home.” I hope that lately you have been benefiting from your own personal version of the Wicked Witch, Aquarius, and I trust that you will soon graduate from your need for the lessons he or she has provided.

Lotus flower, rising so purely,
amongst the muggy waters.
I am a bee buzzing around you,
sucking on your knowledgeable pollen.
Others nearby,
an army of ants waiting for the command.
You are a diamond,
nothing cuts you, nothing breaks you;
A flame, passing itself on.
Before you, love was undefined.
You are the clouds, moving high above.
I want to be the wind that blows through those clouds,
to know the real power you have.
Every step towards you is an inch closer to Him.

German scientist Juergen Zulley specializes in research about the hours we spend unconscious lying in our beds every night. He has come to the conclusion that a lack of sleep can make you stupid, fat, and sick. It weakens your memory, decreases a hormone that helps control your cravings for food, and undermines the healthy function of your heart, digestive system, and circulation. I would add that sleep deprivation reduces the time you spend dreaming, which compromises your mental hygiene. All of these consequences would be major problems for you in the next two weeks, Aquarius. If anything, you need to sleep more than usual. I implore you to get at least eight hours a night. More would be better.

Let it go for 2006 ….
By T. D. Jakes
There are people who walk away from you. And hear me when I tell you this!
When people can walk away from you: let them walk. I don’t want you to try
to talk another person into staying with you, loving you, calling you,
caring about you, coming to see you, staying attached to you. I mean hang up
the phone.
When people can walk away from you let them walk. Your destiny is never tied
to anybody that left.
The bible said that, they came out from us that it might be made manifest
that they were not for
us. For had they been of us, no doubt they would have continued with us. [1
John 2:19]
People leave you because they are not joined to you. And if they are not
joined to you, you can’t make them stay.
Let them go.
And it doesn’t mean that they are a bad person it just means that their part
in the story is over. And you’ve got to know when people’s part in your
story is over so that you don’t keep trying to raise the dead. You’ve got to
know when it’s dead.
You’ve got to know when it’s over. Let me tell you something. I’ve got the
gift of good-bye. It’s the tenth spiritual gift, I believe in good-bye. It’s
not that I’m hateful, it’s that I’m faithful, and I know whatever God means
for me to have He’ll give it to me. And if it takes too much sweat, I don’t
need it. Stop begging people to stay.
Let them go!!
If you are holding on to something that doesn’t belong to you and was never
intended for your life,
then you need to……
Let it go!!
If you are holding on to past hurts and pains ……
Let them go!!
If someone can’t treat you right, love you back, and
see your worth…..
Let them go!!
If someone has angered you ……..
Let it go!!
If you are holding on to some thoughts of evil and revenge……
Let them go!!
If you are involved in a wrong relationship or addiction……
Let it go!!
If you are holding on to a job that no longer meets your needs or talents .
Let it go!!
If you have a bad attitude…….
Let it go!!
If you keep judging others to make yourself feel better……
Let it go!!
If you’re stuck in the past and God is trying to take you to a new level in
Him……
Let it go!!
If you are struggling with the healing of a broken relationship…….
Let it go!!
If you keep trying to help someone who won’t even try to help
themselves…….
Let them go!!
If you’re feeling depressed and stressed ……….
Let it go!!
If there is a particular situation that you are so used to handling yourself
and God is saying “take your hands off of it,” then you need to……
Let it go!!
Let the past be the past. Forget the former things. GOD is doing a new thing
for 2006 !!!
Let it go!!
Get Right or Get Left .. think about it, and then ..
Let it go!!

Every person you know has a different idea about who you are, and none of those notions is exactly the same as the image you have of yourself. In other words, there are hundreds of unauthorized versions of you in addition to the one you believe in. Usually you don’t have much power to control this, but that could change in 2006. More than at any other previous time, you’ll have a knack for bringing public opinion into alignment with your own picture of yourself. Your reputation may even come to closely resemble the person you really are.

In 1503, wealthy silk merchant Francesco del Giocondo commissioned Leonardo da Vinci to paint a portrait of his wife Lisa. But when Leonardo finished the work, now known as the “Mona Lisa,” del Giocondo was so dissatisfied with it that he refused to pay for it. It seems he didn’t recognize its value. I offer this as a teaching story for you, Aquarius. Please make sure that when you get what you ask for in 2006, you don’t make the same mistake del Giocondo did. Eagerly welcome your dream-come-true, even if it’s different from what you expected.
