Where's Waldo?

I thought I would post this entry because I was touched by my experience earlier today. I will call the person who lived in my house before me "Waldo." Since I moved I seem to run across his name all the time.

Today I went to Half Price to get a new Julia book. She appeals to me for so many reasons. I was directed to the Creativity section and was staring at The Sound of Paper and The Vein of Gold, unsure which one to add to my collection (which includes The Artist's Way, Walking in This World, and Floor Sample). I was about to pick The Sound of Paper but then I opened The Vein of Gold. There was a beautiful note inside to Waldo. It made me laugh to see Waldo emerging again. I get his mail every now and then almost 10 years later.

It read:

September 1999

For Waldo,

An invitation to remove the obstacles of the indifferent ordinary to uncover the exhiliration of miracles emerging from your creative heart!

Best Wishes,

"Dad"
