A lot of Shabbat I was very nervous about the fact that Saturday night was my first date with the nice boy. I was really nervous and excited and I was day-dreaming like a crazy woman.
At one point, I was just resting in bed and my friend came in and amazingly she immediately said, "Nervous?" and I said, "I'm just day dreaming, hee hee hee..."
I have a very little sister and often when I day dream about a guy being "The One" it includes her. I guess it's because her and I are very close and the guy I marry needs to be able to have a good relationship with her. So, in this one, we had our annual snow (though sometimes it snows less than once a year) and him, little sister and I were all playing in the snow together.
That was my specific day-dream because I LOOOOOVE the snow and when I spoke to him on the phone the 1st time, he told me that he loves the snow and is really hoping it snows this winter. So, there I was, day-dreaming away...
I felt bad I was "wasting" energy when I don't even know what's gonna happen with him. But there were 2 main themes of Shabbat this week.
1. It is all about the journey. We never have any idea where we're gonna end up. And often we waste tons of energy trying to plan things. Figure things out. Worry about what's gonna happen. But the thing we should be focusing on more than anything is the journey. In other words, focus on the moment. Experience things to their fullest.
2. Stop trying to sell things unless you really believe in them.
But I don't feel like going into that right now.
Anyway, it seems, according to my dear friend, that it's legit on the highest level :) to day-dream. It is enjoying what is.
