Law of Attraction

How many of y'all follow the theory of law of attraction? 

I am a follower/believer... But I still sometimes ask for confirmation that it's real. And lately, since I've been trying to harness more focus in the practice of it, I find more coming my way--more of what I'm seeking. The experiences come even sooner and better than expected when I visualize in a calm manner--that's made a big impact on my recent perception of it. 

Truly beliving in the miracle of this law, it takes a particular confidence to let oneself trust in it without doubt. Doubt would be a barrier to what we want to actually happen. 

There were two instances last week that has strengthen my belief in the power that I truly have in my life (among a few others that we'll get into that during another post). 

As I'm writing this now and reflecting on the last couple weeks, I think I will practice more meditation in order to initiate more calmness and fluidity in my life. 

What kind of experiences have you had with law of attraction and/or meditation?

Please share!! I'm curious to know! :)

XOXO...

Negative Turmoil

I came across this... I truly believe in it, I do! But while in a heated moment, it can be SO challenging to keep one's mouth shut and just walk away or not say anything!

And I've often wondered... when we suppress our angry emotions, is that truly healthy for us? Aren't we suppose to release that anger? I suppose we could go to our rooms and pound the crap out of the pillows, right? But what about those initial reactions of wanting to hurt back? Why shouldn't we?? Cause then our world would just revolve in a endless cycle of hate and anger? I guess... Sometimes, it just feels so good to react and let our anger be released the way we would like it to. Just in times of joy, whether one wants to scream at the top of their lungs or jump up and down, the feeling is in us and we want to release it. It'd be like me telling another not to jump up and down and, rather, go take the dog for a walk.

There's also that comment of not stooping down to another's negative level... well, why would I want to spend extra energy to be the bigger person towards a negative-doer when they clearly don't deserve it?? They deserve to be treated as they are treating others. It's like letting others punch me and I should just stand there and let them... WHA?? When, instead, I could have the satisfaction of releasing my reaction and pushing their buttons as well. I'd rather much spend extra energy on somebody else who deserves it.

Co-parenting Can Suck!!!!

Especially when the other parent is a retard!! Don't get me wrong, there's been plenty of times when I've committed retarded acts; but the difference is that I eventually learn from them... I'm not in denial!!

What is wrong with this guy??? Going by his words and way of thinking, he obviously doesn't take responsibility for his own actions and is in the habit of blaming others. And this is my daughter's father... sigh... great... 

The guy is about 10 years older than me... is it so much to ask that he act like he's older?? 

I also think of what it says about myself that this was somebody that I was with back then... but nobody's immune to stupid acts of conduct. The positive side of mistakes is that we can learn from them and they make us into better people... hopefully! In his case... not so much...

At the time, I was caught in the all-too-familiar comfort zone... even when I was miserable, I was more afraid of the unknown. But when a comment was said to me that hit my heart (because it involved my daughter), I knew in that very moment, that I HAD to leave that toxic/miserable situation I kept myself in. Soon after that, I made a plan and it was set in motion. I remember it like yesterday--once I started that ball rolling, it was not going to stop... each day that passed, it was like the ascent on a roller coaster--I was nervous, anxious and (unlike a roller coaster) wasn't sure what kind of reaction to anticipate... I just knew it was going to have that same feeling as when the roller starts it descent. 

I have another 13 years left that I have to be in contact with her dad o_O As time goes on though, I'm hoping that I have to deal w/ him less and less since my daughter will be older and she will be able to make certain decisions on her own.
