What was I thinking.....

It's scary that the old saying "be careful what you wish for" really does happen especially in light of certain things I have been practicing; such as positive mental manifestation. A very simple concept that has been working out very nicely for me and this life of mine. Take for example finding a parking space in a busy downtown setting all I do is get a mental picture of my truck in a spot and boom I turn the corner and there one is and oddly it looks a lot like the one in my head. I realize that some would say well thats just a coincidence that there happened to be a parking space free and you just happened upon it.... ok that's fine with me but I still got the parking space. Then how about this for an example I needed a place to live for the summer so I think about it don't get stressed about it and just imagine a place somewhere in town that can house me and my stuff, what happens I run into a guy start a conversation about real estate and boom he has a two bed room apartment that he is willing to rent with no security deposit and cheap rent at that. Is it a particularly nice place... no but it works for the summer. Finally the next story happens that next weekend. My uncle John comes down to visit and in conversation says that I should be exercising more and what equipment do I have to do that with "an old bike" I say, so we talked about what fun it would be to have a kayak and a bike for him. The next day the widow next door gives me her husbands old guitar, a cannondale road bike and another guy that night gives me a kayak.
So I encourage you all to start thinking positive and imagine all or one of the things that you want either immediately or in the future and see what comes of it. I for one think that you will be happily surprised at what the outcome will be.

Now


The passage of time sometimes becomes merely an active distance between you and a negative event in the past. Imagine for a moment an anchor dropped on that date and time when said negative event occurred and the time that has past since then has been marked with a link in a chain fixed to that anchor the other end of course is affixed to your self. Now picture in the eye of your mind that every day is like the fold in an ever growing accordion of paper and the the anchor on the end of that chain that is attached to you is dragging every day that has passed you by towards you from behind, in the past. There you are pulling the weight of days along with the weight of the anchor and chain moving forward slowing ever so slightly day after day passes and adds to the "accordion anchor" tugging at your insides. I don't regret but I must get stronger if I want to continue to make life decisions that impact the future.
If you wondered why I have stopped running a business in carpentry its for this simple reason I don't want to loose a finger while pondering instead of concentrating on the task at hand such as operating a saw or router that could quickly and cleanly take off a limb or digit. Enriching my life and putting things in order are now the main goal not to mention also pondering the meaning of life. This blog is to be a sort of journal into my everyday study of the power of positive thinking and the manifestation of all things good
