Lottery?

Ever notice who buys lottery tickets? People who cannot afford to throw away money tend to wish and hope.

Does that method ever get you what you want in life?

Last time I looked wishing and hoping were not strategies but pipe dreams. People who wish and hope fail to take action to create the future they want.They want to reap the harvest when they never planted the seeds. Hmm. Intriguing, to say the least.

I think most people know that lottery winners (not all) tend to wind up even more broke 3 years after their windfall than they were before the big win. And we all know the reason – you attract what you are. If your subconscious mind’s programs set you up as someone without money then it does not matter how much comes to you. You will lose it in some fashion. Spending it counts as losing it since it disappears from your bank account.

Lack currently forms the pervasive thought form on this planet. If you fail to consciously run your head differently by thinking thoughts of abundance then you will, by default, find yourself caught in the fear and trap of not enough.

Your unconscious focus on lack keeps you stuck. Counter that mindset with conscious thoughts of abundance. Not about money in particular but about what money does for you. Where will you live? What clothing will you wear? How about education? Spending time playing and enjoying life?

Do you know that people do not hesitate to spend $50,000 to recover from a heart attack yet they could have prevented that trauma by spending maybe a couple thousand dollars taking fun vacations or enjoying hobbies that reduce stress.

Focus, with very conscious intention. on how you want your world to look. Know you cannot do it two or three times each day. You gotta do it all day long. If you do it now and then your subconscious mind will replay 95% of your thoughts about lack from the day before. That 95% will cancel out the 5% of conscious abundance thought immediately.

Got it?  Now do it. You won’t have to monitor your thoughts forever. Make it an automatic happening. Do it daily for 28 days and your new habit will keep you in abundance – whatever that term means for you.

Consider this: if you are reading this then you have internet access. You live better than most of the world. Whatever your current circumstances you already won the lottery of life because you live where you live.

Is Change Scary?

Most people tell you the thought of leaving their comfort zone is scary. I think the opposite. Staying stuck in your comfort zone, especially when you do not feel happy (or even safe) is downright terrifying.

I was stuck in a marriage where we had not stopped loving each other but our lives had gonw in such different directions that we no longer enjoyed doing things together.

For years we tried to make the relationship work. But the bottom line was that both of us were unhappy.

After 31 years of marriage we mutually decided to part and had a very amicable divorce. Each of us now lives individually in  happiness we had lost as a couple.

Was it scary to go out on my own for the first time in my life past the age of 50? You better believe it was. But the thought of staying in deep unhappiness was way more scary.

Oreo’s Healing Journey

To be clear, back when I didn’t know if I would ever get my life back following the brain i jury I realized that healing has nothing to do with recovering the life and body/mind one had prior to whater trauma happened.

Healing is about accepting yourself exactly as you are in the moment. And healing is also about letting go of a body if staying on this Earth plane no longer serves your spirit.

Yesterday as night came on Oreo started slowing down. Suddenly, for the first time in his life he acted and looked his age. I have no clue how old a 20-year old cat actually his. We know a dog’s life equates at 7 years for each human year.

He seemed to sleep okay last night. Started out with me. Got up and asked for food. But then he started following me around. He never did that before. His body jerks now and then. I didnt think much of that as mine does too – at times.

He spent yesterday in his before-traumatic event spot on the couch. Last night he actually asked for the energy bed to be placed in my bedroom and though he started sleeping on my bed he moved down there at some point.

Today Oreo asked for the energy bed to be placed by me where I work. He spent all day, so far, lying on it.

Here is what is so interesting…

My friend Mary told me Oreo wanted rose quartz by him. And I placed a good sized raw rose quartz crystal by him Sunday when she told me to. Oreo lay on it, most surprising because it is quite jaggard, Sunday and Monday.

Today he started with his paws against the crystal. Then moved so it was right at his third eye. T hen he turned so it was at the base of his spine.

You want to know that Oreo is no ordinary cat. Just like my first cat, Samnatha ( maybe I will share the book I wrote about her some day) he is a super spiritual being who happens to live in a cat suit right now just as we live in human being suits.

He knows exactly what he isdoing. He is bathing himslef and his chakras and meridians with the love energy of the rose quartz.

So I don’t really know if he is staying with me or getting ready to go.

HE just went into the corner behind the infrared heater. Now back on the energy bed–which, BTW, the Universe gifted us with for an extra 2 weeks.

Thanks for continuing to send energy and lots of love to both of us. And if you have some hugs to spare please send them too.

I love and appreciate you all.

Happiness Levels Make All the Difference

I know I would have been completely devastated by Sunday and Monday’s events with Oreo (see post below) if I did not live at a high level (frequency) of happiness. I know I can’t be all things to all people in teaching happiness so I occasionally recommend the work of my colleagues who I respect. I use those products myself. Hey. I am still growing and learning too.
.
I cannot recommend Natalie’s program highly enough. And her price shows her true compassion for helping others achieve their dreams the same as I. Please look at her program while she still has this unbelievable offer going.

I create products all the time. I know the true value of what she is giving away today. At the very least take a look. Do it for you. Love yourself first. It is not selfish. It is mandatory.

So you know, to be totally up front, I do earn a bit of money when you purchase her products. That is often the case when we help each other get the word out. I use her products, including this one. I had to buy it too. It is worth the price.

He Collapsed – Devastation and Miracles

He screamed and collapsed. I thought I lost him. It was so terrifying. I don’t cry easily. My nose is sore from all the wiping.

I was certain I would awaken to his lifeless body this morning. He had not eaten for two days and yesterday stopped drinking water. And all I could do was love him and do all the energy work and prayer I knew to do. He seemed to hurt too much to be touched.

The vet said his heart is weak, that he has a murmur and could go at any time.

The vet? Yes. I am talking about my closest dearest buddy–the one who welcomes me when I come home, who warms my office chair for me and my bed at night, the Soul who gives me unconditional love and lived through some nightmares as I changed my life – and his – over the past 17 years.

If you never owned a cat or some pet who taught you about life as mine has done then maybe this note makes no sense whatsoever to you. But if you ever lost someone close to you then you know how I feel.

I am sorry I did not put up a new Take 5 Tuesday for you today. I could not write a song or make a video. I need to hold my little guy..my very little guy who is down to 6 pounds.

Here is the thing…I hope maybe you can learn something from what happened to us on Sunday. When my cat came to me and screamed then fell over limp I burst into tears and felt so filled with anguish and loss that I pleaded with him not to leave me.

Yeah, that was really selfish. Took me a while to calm down (like until the next day when I saw him hanging on but with little life in him). I spent most of the day lying on the floor next to him telling him to take the energy I and my friends were sending to either heal and recover or to take it and leave his body.

You see, I learned, ten years ago, as I assisted my mom through the transition process out of her body to the next plane, that she stayed in her extremely pained body because she was worried about me. She told me that when I asked her why she wouldn’t leave.

I told her I was okay and I would be okay – terribly sad but okay. Since she left I learned no one ever dies. In fact I know when she comes to visit me. But that is a story to put on my blog not go into now.

Anyway, Oreo seemed to get what I was telling him. He is deaf but I know (also learned this with my Mom) the Spirit hears every word. So when he seemed so calm last night I prepared myself for his departure.

Only this morning he is still here. He purred a soft gentle purr for which I really had to listen. Then he asked for and ate a bit of food and drank some water. He is walking around and looking out the window.

No not his usual self but hey, yesterday I spent all day watching to see if he was still breathing.

The Universe is conspiring – I mean you would not believe all the things that happened in the past 12 hours – to bring peace to both of us.

I don’t know if Oreo is feeling better. The last thing I ever want is for him to stay here in pain because I don’t want to lose him.

What I definitely know is he and I are okay and always will be. Know when I speak the following words they come through me from the HIghest Source that is pure love, pure energy…

“In every moment of every day we are each held with Love in Light.”

All that I share with you comes from my personal and professional experiences with real people and real animals. I do not teach theory or maybes. I live in the truths I share and walk my talk.

And I thank you for reading what just poured out of my heart. Mostly I thank you for joining me on this magnificent though oft’ times supremely challenging adventure we call life.

If you do this sort of thing, both Oreo and I welcome your prayers, Light, energy and love. I will be posting to my blog to keep you and my friends informed of Oreo’s status – and mine.

I live out in the country. My friends live 25 miles away. Oreo is sometimes the only one who talks to me or cuddles with me for days. We all need touching. And that was part of my initial outburst on Sunday. I felt I would be alone. Duh! I know I live in that I am never alone – ever.

In a crisis as emotions flare up intelligence takes a nose dive.

Respectfully,
Ali
