I Google'd "Dirty Aura" and got this. Poor Patrick. You must've went to the same chick I did.
For Christmas, my amazing friend got me a 45 minute tarot card reading. To say I was excited to go is an understatement because I haven’t had much experience in that whole department. I mean, without getting all deep, I do believe that there’s a higher being and all of that jazz, but I try and keep that under wraps as not to offend.
I went to a psychic down in Atlantic City last summer and she told me in the 5 minutes I was in there, that I had been through a lot in my young age, I moved out on my own early, and that I would meet a man soon with the first initial of “D”. I took it very seriously and stopped every potential dating process with someone without a D in their name immediately. All that in a 5 minute reading. So, when I got a 45 minute one as a gift, my mind was all over the place with the possibilities.
First of all, I didn’t even get 45 minutes. It was about 20 minutes, maybe. Apparently, I’m getting married, having 2 kids and meeting my husband in the Spring. She knew little things that were creepy like my living arrangement, and my past, including a major breakup that broke me. She told me that “I feel broken, but I’m not.” That was nice. But then she dropped the bomb.
“…BUT”
I knew there was going to be a but.
“BUT, Your Aura is Dirty!”
“Oh.”
“Yes. You have a bright future, but you have a dirty aura and we MUST clean it.”
“Let’s do it. How much?”
“$200.”
“No. I can’t.”
“I can do a payment plan!”
“…Maybe I’ll come back.”
I walked out, called my friend and told her about my experience. I didn’t even think twice about the dirty aura part until that weekend when I got a raging toothache that rendered me incapable of seeing straight. I’m now getting surgery on Thursday.
Then, on Friday I fell down a flight of stairs in my house so now I walk with a weird limp and I take about 20 minutes to get into an upright position from sitting down.
I’m told on Thursday that I have a filthy aura, on Sunday I get a Toothache, and the following FridayI fall down some stairs. That’s a little more than coincidence. I told my roommates about this bad aura thing and they suggested that I just Google how to clean my own Aura. And I did.
Do you know what I need?! TURKEY FEATHERS.
There’s another method that looks like it might be good if I can get past the red font on the black background. Seriously, if any of you are Aura cleaners and are willing to make a deal, I can pay you in Nutella Sandwiches and Wine.
I spent a crazy amount of time looking into ways to clean my dirty aura, but then I was channel surfing and saw that one of my all time favorite movies was on.
I realized how far I’ve come tonight when I watched the Holiday. I dated someone with whom I shared a mutual love for the movie. After arguments and disagreements, after good date nights, just because we felt like it. It was our go-to-movie. I personally have loved the movie since I saw it in the theater when it came out, so finding someone who shared the love of the movie with me was a dream come true.
Until the dream ended.
I always had a hard time watching the movie without him. Even years after the relationship ended, I’d see the movie and take a pass on it, because it brought back old feelings. And feelings are icky. Plus, since everything has changed, I figured the movie wouldn’t be the same anymore.
I watched the movie tonight from (almost) beginning to end and enjoyed every single minute of it. My fear that it wouldn’t be the same anymore after 3 years was all in my head. I loved the movie before him. And I still love it. Everything about it. Even the parts that were hard to watch or brought back a few little twinges of feelings. Because that’s just the way life is. Ups. Downs. Tooth pains. Heart ache. But at the end, there’s always a feel good moment. A moment of realization when you know how far you’ve come and even though you have a far way to go, it’s totally doable, because, I mean, look how far you’ve already come, baby.
Once you get through the pain, through the tough stuff, it doesn’t seem nearly as difficult anymore. Eventually you feel that you’re on the upswing. You turn around and look at how far you’ve come and know that you are going to keep going just as you always have.
Even though it hurts to walk and my tooth hurts like a motherfucker at times, I’ll keep on pushing through. It’s what I do.
Maybe the chick mistook bad aura for the occasional negative outlook. And that’s something I can change, and that doesn’t cost $200.
