Head Space Daily Words...

Yesterday I was visited by the Karma Police as the fickle finger of fate pointed in my direction and chose me to be the recipient of some good fortune. It all began last weekend when I was spammed like a fritter, as some techno trickster hacked into my yahoo account and sent an e-mail, apparently containing a video about the benefits of dieting, to everyone in my address book. Pisser. I haven’t seen the video but being tall, slim and able to eat like a horse, anyone who knows me would be surprised to find me supporting a dieting regime. A few people kindly e-mailed to make me aware that I had been sending what they presumed to be spam mail. This included a message on Thursday morning from a friend who I have worked closely with for many years, “I knew you wouldn’t have sent that,” she commented, and then asked what I was up to. I told her it had been a slow year, then, like a guardian angel, she e mailed me back to let me know that there was a networking event taking place at a bar in town that very evening. I was in. It was the first networking shindig I had ever been to and I took to it like a duck to water and before you knew it, I was flinging my business card around like confetti. A few new contacts have been made which could potentially lead to work. If I hadn’t given a business card to the waiter, I would have had one left over for that other potential client. Oh well. What happened yesterday felt as if the stars had realigned and karma had been served. If my e-mail account hadn’t been spammed, my friend would not have contacted me and I wouldn’t have been out last night meeting new people. You never know what is around the corner…
