I've written a long story of my history and the Oprah show and how it has influenced my life. Now I'm not considered the ultimate viewer. I don't know if I'll publish it. Maybe in segments.... Honestly, I wish she would see my tiny blog. I would like to be the only person that sends her an email with my tribute and she would notice it. Highly unlikely, but she teaches that all is possible. I woke up at about 3 am this morning with her Master Series on the tube and it was Oprah talking about getting her role in The Color Purple. I have had it recorded since it first came on. Tears rushed down my face as I listened to her marvelous voice singing I Surrender All.
I find myself singing the tune often since first seeing her on the Master Series. I was talking to my friend Linda the other night about some memories of my Dad and him not appreciating my little projects around the house when I was a youngster. And she said, "Forgive it and let it go! and maybe it will help with whats going on with you now." As much as I look back at my journey through life I had not linked the old issue with the new one. We called it An Oprah Moment.
Another moment on Oprah's series.....Wouldn't Take Nothin For My Journey Now. I've been saying something like that for years. I was so happy to hear Oprah sing this song. Perfection! I sing that one also. When people hear about my Mom dying at age 1, they are apologetic and so sweet, but my general response is, "it's alright, I wouldn't be who I am today if life had been any other way. Talk about getting strange looks or confusion on peoples faces because I no longer react with a woe is me attitude. I haven't in years. But I started thinking; something maybe is wrong with me. Then I tell myself, No this is what it is! Oprah is my wise sister! I just wish I could meet my sister!! Ha, ha!
Oprah, you have opened my heart to God again. It's been closed for a long time. When I heard you talk about the creator the doors to my heart began opening up little by little. I'm beginning to understand my energy and God more and more everyday. I've always understood about the good, bad or sad energy. I can sense the energy the moment I walk in a room. I used to become whatever energy I ran into and carry it with me. I did not know it was bad for me. I did this until one day I had a ah ah moment so I now create my energy. Now I was not raised in a church, but I remember singing Jesus Loves Me as a tiny little girl. And I would sing it whenever I felt sad or lonely which was a lot. I don't know where I learned it. The song made me feel safe. While growing up I've had horrible evil dreams. One night at about 22 years I was in the middle of one of the most evil nightmares I've ever had and I remembered the song so I started singing Jesus Loves Me in this nightmare and all was calm and I woke up. No nightmare has been that bad since I sang that song.
I'm toasting you, Oprah with my Moscow Mule! I thank God for giving me, you, a beautiful, giving, soulful woman to bring so much enlightenment and validation to my life. Yeah I don't know you, but you have a way of allowing people to feel you are their friend and wise sister. Please, take a hiatus on me and get GREAT REST with Sadie in your CA sanctuary. I don't want you to wear yourself out!
