One of my bucket list items was to meet Wayne Dyer and I did it! I went to the Hay House "I Can Do It Conference" in Vancouver and had a picture taken with Wayne. It is such a bad picture of me, but I didn't care, I was thrilled to be there. It was a double pleasure, as I also got to spend some time with my son who lives in Victoria. First about the conference, every speaker was so good, there was a spiritual and weight loss theme about the event, which I liked. My only disappointment was the seating arrangements, I thought that people attending this conference would be of higher consciousness and would not create such havoc every time we left the room. Unless you held your seat, someone, in their infinite wisdom would try to get closer to the stage and would take it. Which of course caused a ripple effect. To me it seemed so simple, stay put and everything would go smoother and less chaotic.

My love of Wayne Dyer started in 1998 when I was sent a set of tapes (yes I said tapes) about Manifesting Your Destiny. I had just gone through a major back surgery, and did not have much to do but read, watch TV and listen to music or tapes. And there is only so much I can take when it comes to daytime TV. My sister-in-law, in her infinite wisdow, knew I was going through tough times and sent me the tapes from California.
