Some Day My Prince Will .com

Do you believe in synchronicity and destiny, mixed in with some well deserved good karma? Well I do.

It was 1999. I was a single mother of two wonderful teenage girls and I owned my own business, Dreamtime Cruises & Tours, which created, sold and marketed new age spiritual, personal development and holistic seminars at sea on cruise ships. I had actually created a very nice life for myself if you didn’t look too far beneath the surface and see my debt and other business problems, my problems with men, my challenges with my parents accepting me for who I am, etc.

My life was very busy and I had no time or interest in meeting men through the bar scene or any other scene for that matter. The very best way for me as I enjoy both writing and reading was getting to know people through their emails on match.com. In 1999 internet dating was still relatively new and not as high tech as it is now. You couldn’t wink at people or anything fancy like that but you could search under certain parameters for somebody to email. I had actually been dating somebody for the past year whom I met on match.com but for various reasons that I discuss in the book, he was not “the one” and I was ready to find somebody else. I had learned so many lessons in dating (and marriage) and really felt ready to attract to myself my highest and best mate. That was my affirmation and I did believe it would happen. I thought I would dip my toes in the water again and see who would bite so I signed on to match.com again, this time for only a 7-day trial membership.

Well David wrote to me and there was an instant interest on both of our parts and a knowing that we had a lot in common and would enjoy writing to each other. Before the 7 days expired David and I had exchanged personal email addresses and that would be my last time on match.com. I didn’t know on June 29th 1999 that I had just “met” my husband to be (who by the way lived in England) but I had a very, good feeling about him.

This is also a book about finding the right career, following my passion in business and creating the life of my dreams. It is an honest book that follows me as I flash back through two marriages and divorces, being a single mother of two girls and my unique relationship with them, my financial challenges and my struggles with my parents to understand and accept me for who I am. But above all, it is a spiritual book full of lessons learned and still being learned about unconditional love, giving and receiving, trusting, not resisting, co-creating with the universe or God, forgiving, overcoming guilt, healing our wounds so we don’t keep repeating the same mistakes over and over again, accepting ourselves and loving ourselves, and connecting with others on a soul level. The book shows how the law of attraction and the belief that anything is possible really does work. It is about synchronicity and destiny and how much of a difference one person can make.

David and I each sent approximately 200 emails to each other before we met in person (almost 5 months after the 1st email). We told each other our stories of our past and present and our hopes for the future. You can read all of that in this book.

Relationships weren’t easy for me, or for many people in my generation of baby boomers. People younger than me weren’t finding it easy either. Sure, we were liberated as women, which our mothers weren’t. We had it all – husbands, careers, babies. We were exhausted! The 80s brought in greed, and the baby boomers became the “me” generation, entitled to it all, but very often at the expense of one’s husband or wife as all of us felt entitled to having the perfect life and we blamed our lack of it and our unhappiness on somebody outside of ourselves. Divorce was rampant. The term “work life balance” had not yet been invented, or if it had, I hadn’t heard of it. I worked very hard as you will read, trying to have it all. The truth, both then and today, is it is a very difficult balance and very often one of the three loses out. It is more often the marriage than it is the children or the career.

The 80s brought my first divorce and the 90s brought my second one. I was a single mother for most of my daughters’ growing up years.

I have always been a positive thinker and a believer in the law of attraction and the fact that our beliefs create our reality. This made me see most challenges as growth and learning opportunities and something I must have drawn to myself for my further development. Although, I must admit, sometimes I did get stuck in the present moment heartbreak or problem and I had to keep reminding myself that when one door closes another one opens and that I was exactly where I needed to be to allow that new beginning to occur. This book looks back on these times and relives them with the goal always in mind of letting go, forgiving and knowing that something really good is going to happen soon.

David and I are true twin flame soul mates and we seem to have the same life lessons. Of all the achievements I have had in my life, I have to say that succeeding in a loving relationship is the biggest one. I wish this success for everybody. If I can do it so can you!

Why not read this, be inspired and try it yourself. If you believe, like we do, that anything is possible, then someday your prince (or princess) will also .com.
