Allowing

The law of attraction always works; it’s a law. But how come is doesn’t happen right away for everyone, fulfilling all dreams immediately?

Well – if it did, we would have a new understanding of what high and low are. Our new lows would match our old highs.

So we need to look at how to renew ourselves, steady our thoughts and emotions, knowing that they change all the time, knowing that being off-course is natural and normal as long as the goal is firmly held.

We allow, not attract. And allowing is not resisting what doesn’t seem to fit. Focusing on the future allows time and space for everything else.

The only thing we know about time is its inexorability. Learning is constant and corrective. Have gratitude for your life and your circumstances. How can we not?

Useful Quotations

You have to allow a certain amount of time in which you are doing nothing in order to have things occur to you, to let your mind think.
Mortimer Adler

And I think that when I finally decided to let go and let God and allow that to happen, I became a lot more successful than I could have done if I had planned it all myself.
Clay Aiken

As you look back at your life, there are just a million different things that have happened, just in the right way, to allow you to make your dreams come true. And you know, someone has all that under control.

Rafting

It was rubber, too thin, it seemed
Unsturdy
But the water’s calm,
We even have to work to move us all
But up ahead, the sound is
Not the rustle of the leaves
In the small breeze of summer,
It is the water, speaking loudly
And now I see it turning white
I never did this quite this way before

And this we learned, Nancy and our daughters
We could not steer the raft,
The whitewater way more powerful
Than our oars
We could only use our oars
To push against the rocks
Allowing waves to rock the ride
And bring us safely home
