I want to win tonight's Illinois State Lottery. It's up to $5.2 million. After taxes, that's $2,500/week for 20 years. I'd be very happy with that.
No, change "happy" to "content and secure." For as my best friend has said, money problems are seldom about money. And when I worry about money, it's not the cash that scares me. It's the feelings of vulnerability that worrying about money inspires. I'm confident I'll always eat. But it's feeling like no one has my back, that I'm fighting this battle all alone that I hate.
Which winning the lottery would settle once and for all. So keep your fingers crossed for me!
These are the thoughts and observations of me — a woman of a certain age. (Oh, my, God, I'm 65!) I'm single. I'm successful enough (independent, self supporting). I live just outside Chicago, the best city in the world. I'm an aunt and a friend. I feel that voices like mine are rather underrepresented online or in print. So here I am. If my musings resonate with you, please visit my blog again sometime.
I want everyone to be safe and comfortable. :) That's the tree-hugger in me.
ReplyDeleteI'm with you on the feelings of vulnerability. After seeing what my mom went through, I know I don't want that.
I better get my manifesting skills back in gear! :)
It would be amazing if you won! How did you choose your numbers?
