A New Way of Life?

At this point I'm not sure what to 'call' what I started last night. It was like a prayer, a ritual, a practice, a process - all of them, and so much more. A very wise woman (that none of you know, and I'm not saying who) shared this with me. Once started - you never stop. It isn't religious specific, however it is a very spiritual experience. It is singular to each individual and what that individual believes - and needs.

After watching the movie, The Secret, I spent a lot of time studying some of the individual people. I also found the writings of Wallace D. Wattles (the author of the original book that The Secret was spawned from) and read each of his books. As fascinating study always does - one book lead me to another, and another. But the question of 'how' still eluded me. They were ALL saying it - I just wasn't getting it! I began working on bringing the understanding to myself. I rearranged my thoughts to make them a positive request for this understanding - and took away the words that only bring more of what I didn't want.

Side note: What are those words? When you focus on, "I want ..." you are only bringing more WANT to yourself. When you focus on, "I need ..." you are only bringing more NEED to yourself. You actually have to make your needs and wants a statement of fact and only focus on the fact. For example: If you need a new home - DON'T focus on, "I need a new home." Focus on, "New Home," or better yet simply, "Home."

When I finally put down all of the books (and stopped trying to 'find' the answer) - the Universe delivered my request in a simple conversation. And, that conversation led to what I experienced last night.

It is truly amazing what happens to a person when they stop focusing on I - Me - Mine and open themselves up.
