My friend Rosie turned me on to an uplifting book and it is so amazing I had to share it with you immediately. It is called "PRONOIA: How the Whole World is Conspiring to Shower You With Blessings", by Rob Brezsny. Here is a quote from the introduction, entitled "This is a perfect moment".

"Life is crazily in love with us -- wild and innocently in love with us. The universe always gives us exactly what we need, exactly when we need it. Pronoia is our word of power, the spell we cast to shake ourselves awake again and again. It's the antidote for paranoia. It's the brazen perception that all of creation is conspiring to shower us with blessings. Pronoia means that even if we can't see and don't know, primal benefactors are plotting to emancipate us. The winds and tides are sceheming to steal our pain. The sun and the moon know our real names and the animals pray for us while we're dreaming. Do you believe in guardian angels and divine helpers? Whether you do or not, theyre always wrangling to give you the gifts you don't even realize you want. Can you guess how many humble humans are busy making things for you to use and enjoy?....'Earth's crammerd with heaven'."

By the time I read this part, I was hooked and immediately bought the book. It is such a delightful concept... and so against our mainstream media messages which perpetuate beliefs of negativity, fear and war. The Universe is wildly and passionatly in love with us! Duh. Check it out!
