| Additional Information | The message is a cheerful way of saying that “my goals are starting to come true”—acting as a boost of self-motivation or a playful humble-brag. It's a positive statement indicating that a person's ambitions and dreams are becoming achievable. This phrase can inspire hope and motivation, helping maintain an optimistic outlook on life. It also involves releasing old beliefs to make space for new, larger opportunities suited for the current phase of life. Achieving this requires openness to seeing possibilities, taking action, and welcoming new opportunities. I (heart) ORDERS POWERLINE likely refers to the slogans and the post-1977 “I ♥ …” style; it appears to be from a late-1970s/1980s catalog or mail-order button house. The maker/distributor was “Powerline,” and “I ♥ ORDERS … 7792” (or “77920 363/364”) was their ordering info/phone number printed on the rim. |
