Orphan Blog

This has been my orphan blog for some time now. It seems everyone is on the "manifesting abundance" bandwagon and I don't feel the need to get the word out so much. However, I wanted to tell my "followers" or anyone else who may be listening/reading how much I am grateful for the knowledge of this process.

Today, I am more than halfway to my goal of savings that will allow me to get some laminate floors for my house. Last year, I thought it would take another 5 years to save for what I wanted and this year it has happened!!! Focus, attention and emotion are the best ingredients for manifesting what you want. Thank you source. Thank you me for allowing source to work through me.

I have been blessed to get beyond my doubts and fears this year and commit to continuing the work of clarity of purpose. Stay tuned!!!

New Ways To See This

This blog is much less defined that my others. I am rethinking it's purpose. Is this to be another "manifesting" book? Will it be a journal of my own journey of manifesting for myself (and the world)? I haven't decided, but am committed to exploring these questions. Stay tuned.

Pleasures

I'm not sure if this entry belongs in this blog or my other of life thoughts and meditations, but I'm starting with it here.

One of the pleasures I get in life is that of pleasure for pleasure's sake.

Each move I make

Each Visual I see

Each Taste I savor

and every choice I determine brings it's own pleasure.
They then all translate and are combined as the art of life.

I experience pleasure in the NOW and the NOW is where manifesting occurs. A sense of gratitude is intertwined with experiencing pleasure. Think of the ahhhhh moment of slipping into a hot tub. Each time I do, I say thank you, thank you, thank you while the warmth spreads through my body.

Since pleasure(being in the moment) and the gratitude of that pleasure is closely linked to manifesting what you want, I'll leave this post here. You'll know it when you see it!!

Everywhere

This is my least visited blog. It's also my least defined blog. I know I don't want to make it into another "how to" or "Principles of" kind of thing, so I guess I'll just ramble along until it takes more shape.

I had lunch with my sister today and we talked about Turning Points and Generational phenomenon. We are almost four years apart in age (I'm the younger) and so have similar memories of "history" especially as it relates to shifts and changes in society, culture, world views, etc. It's nice to have someone with that continuity.

Anyway we both remembered when we received the "New Age" message about how our Selves contribute to the "good" of the world. That each moment we can choose to add good and that that choice can make a difference in how our world becomes worse or better.

It was of course, more complicated than that, but it was interesting to remember when the idea was way out there and how now there is a whole generation of young people who know and understand it as a natural way of being.

It is a frightening time for many people, myself included. I do, however maintain a positive outlook that we can stave off the worse of our tribulation by keeping our noses clean and contributing in positive ways in all we do.  I have hope and faith in the human spirit. I will maintain it as long as possible and am glad to have comrades to support and join in the effort.

Many blessings to all.

Questioning and Being Real

When one is manifesting (or whatever you want to call it) there are certain "givens" that exist. Most books and speakers have outlined them well. But, you know me! I have to try out everything. Of course, I know I really don't HAVE to, but I really like it.

One of the experiments I've observed for some time now is the experiment with experiences. Experiences are the drug of the conscious being. It's been well documented in the Vedas and various other "holy text". Yet, I play with fire. I still have that little daredevil in me that jumped off the 30 foot platform into the pool. I like experiences.

So I question if feeding that little daredevil with "experiences" is a good choice. It is this act of questioning that begins the manifesting process. In the above case, it is the manifestation of a better life.

Questioning is one of the very basic qualities needed to manifest. . This is how our brains were designed. To question seems to come naturally to human beings.

Moreover, it seems to me that it is only through questioning that one can gain clarity. And clarity around anything is the other basic element of manifesting. When we are clear we manifest better.

It seems to me to be a great gift. This ability and desire to question feels very sacred to me. I have mentioned before, gifts can be underused or overused and luckily neither way is productive when it comes to manifesting. Manifesting requires one to be "real" with one's gifts. This realness is what creates reality.

I have always loved yoga because it has helped me maintain an energy balance when I most needed it. The strength and beauty of the asanas have always spoken to my personal needs. I do believe each of us needs to find their own energy in the method that is best for them. Being real is as easy as blinking your eye and as difficult as passing a kidney stone! If you are on this path, I'd love to hear from you.

Many blessings

Seeing is believing

I wrote a post in my other blog http://lifethoughtsmemoriesandcontemplations.blogspot.com/ with this title. I think it also belongs here.

Why, I ask myself does it fit in both my blogs? How then are they related? Should I indeed combine them. Do I even need to define one and the other as different? If so, how?


Many questions. I'd love some comments. Do you have a place you put your meanderings, thoughts, comtemplations? Do they then begin a "thread" of creating your future reality? Is that the answer?

Is this blog, then for posts about technique and implementation, the other for thinking and dreaming up ideas to implement. Yin/Yang??

Comments?

So Where Is It?

I've been "upping the ante" for about a month now. At least that's what I keep telling myself that's what I'm doing. So why hasn't a million dollars shown up in my mailbox? Where is the man of my dreams? And, most importantly, "Why do I not feel happy?"

Well, today, I received another sweet gift. A few years ago, a friend of mine gave me a free cd introducting a "prosperity" expert. I had already heard about this particular expert. I even agreed with the principles and tools. But I wasn't interested in delving into it any further than I had. I had the book, it agreed with everything I'd learned many years before and so I never really listened to the cd until today.

I was doing the dishes, cleaning up the kitchen and wanting some music, so put on a favorite cd. When that one ended, I looked through my box of cd's and pulled out this particular cd. I don't even know why I had it my box with the music. But there it was. So I played it. Great stuff. Loved listening to it. It actually was just what I needed to hear to integrate quite a bit of what I'd been "upping the ante".

So, it was a sweet gift and I appreciate it. A million bucks? A handsome dude? Happiness? None of them come close and happiness is always there anyway.

It made me think. I am showered with gifts everyday. A breath of fresh air before it rains. A bird singing. Friends dropping by. Good food to eat. Fun and laughter. The list goes on and on. A million dollars? Would be ok, but can't buy what I already have. A handsome dude? Sure, I know there will be one in the eye of my beholder. Whoever I fall in love with, and when, he will always handsome to me. There truly is beauty from within.

I am secure. I fool myself out of it from time to time.
