LOL... when I read your subject line in my email box I wanted to hurry over here and reassure you that there's NO NEED TO RUSH IT... YOU'LL BE FABULOUS FORTY soon enough!

Then much to my shock and amazement... I discover your post sounding like you think 35 is 'old' or something in some sort of 'less than' way... YIKES!!!

Even when I was a little girl... the ONLY birthday I had the "I can't wait's" for was my 40th... and it didn't disappoint me one bit!!!

You're just beginning, Girlfriend-- it just gets better and BETTER!!!!

I am sorry you are feeling this way. I believe that the more we learn, the more we can enjoy, the more we are able to share.
You are just starting out on this wonderful ride and you are already 5 years ahead of my curve.

This past year was my first year conciously knowing about the Law of Attraction. Since I realized I was a co-creator in my life I have attracted amazing, fantastic miracles (you can read about them on my website). I am so very grateful.

As Mary said 40 was wonderful. I can't wait for the next year let alone tomorrow.

Learning...Enjoying...Sharing
D
P.S. Happy Birthday. Enjoy it. Share it .

Happy Birthday, you just listed a zillion things to be grateful for, you are positive! I don't have my dream job either, or for that matter, what I will be when i grow up, meaning a specific profession, you know when people say what do you do?

I responded cause you sound similar to me, when I will be 35 I know I will cry and cry, when I turned 30, that is what I did,
so I feel ya, and yet, you list the positives

go dancing, do whatever you want, what you accomplished thus far, is fantastic! Just look at the future, so much time to do a zillion things!

and when you are still down about it, think about people that have it worse, how you preceivce how they have it worse anyways, :) lol
and then you will feel better, ( you know what I mean, I say this in a fun way, ( I am again lol)

Happy Birthday Girl! Enjoy!

people's paths take different meandering ways; your path is different, you can't compare yourself to others.

you are not any less 'successful' because you haven't gotten certain things in place.

what were you put on the earth for? what are you doing to fulfil your own goals and desires? once you answer that question, you won't be charting your success compared to others...

Happy Birthday, Athena!!!

I have known you for quite a number of years here at PI...

And I know that you are a Master Appreciator...and, a Master of Manifestation!!!

It ain't what you have or collect...It is what you enJOY and Appreciate!...When you Appreciate something you own it!

My feeling is that life is never really "sorted out"...it is always an unfolding journey! That's what makes it so Wonderful!

Again...Happy Birthday!...May you have the Best Year Ever!!!

I Appreciate You!

Bob :>)

Happy Belated birthday BTW--ah another rambunctious highly-spirited usually intuitive or clairvoyant (or both) hallows eve baby ! Have you ever read Scarlett- the sequel to GWTW ? Her daughter, also born on Hallows eve, very special, precocious and seemingly withdrawn to most, even depressed, but on the inside she is just slowing down the fastness of her ego. She is balanced as you are. Depressive states-of-being, yes we have them. Are they necessarily bad or real downers that require medicating? Very few in my opinion. This is why I did not get licensed as a clinical therapist and only counsel on-line or from my home office (small but effective for one on one). Mostly the answer for depressed-states-of-being (see I hate the word 'depressed' it sounds like deflated from the living !), I feel is re-channeling the cause of the depressed-state-of-being into something, anything creative. Even if its just doing a crossword puzzle.

It is very necessary slow-down time required by those of us that jump into the future before completing the past, even if it was just a moment before. I like you, I feel your concern. I am stimulated by your forwardness, I would like to begin a reciprocal relationship of sharing, laughing, smiling and crying through the ebbs and flows of this life we share together as women, as souls guided by wolves, ants, eagles and warts--I am moved by you.

About knowing it all by 35 ? Oh heavens, heck and what not--NO have your life totally figured out by 35? I wish ! Not saying you sound ridiculous, not my intention, but I just turned 42 and I am starting all over again, without a mate, to come to some crossroad in my life that is centered on specifically what Erica must do for herself, to love herself, a new book for me is coming in 2009 (not Dec 2008 like originally hoped for), I foresee clearly having to sell or put up my condo for sale, persevere harder market my stuff and me better after three long years with getting a masters degree, creating a website, tweaking it and making it the better domain out there for Mind, Body and Spirit wellness to self-improvement, continue to have my parents and I help each other to just stay afloat above poverty and I still have not figured it 'all out' yet. I sure have learned alot along the way though . . .

I only own property as a hand-me-down after my uncle and mother pass, but I do own my condo and property taxes and school taxes, kill me. My mortgage is lower than most, so I am blessed and there are three bedrooms. There are some very wise and deeply-spirited individuals here at PI that have given my bleakness, paradaisacal balminess ! I would like to keep in touch and help one another through this great sojourn.

Pleasure to make your acquaintance and sharing the light and of course,
Wishing you the very best of holidays coming up
Miss Erica Hidvegi
