Thoughts become things...

Aha! Laurel, do you know what your thoughts did last week?!

Oh, yes you do.

They became the things and events of this week. The things you thought would be difficult became difficult; easy became easy; boring became boring; and fun became fun. Where you thought there might be surprises, you were surprised. And where you thought there might be land mines, there were land mines.

Bravo! You can add this week to the list of your most creative accomplishments.

Now, can you guess what your thoughts this week are going to do?

You are awesome,
The Universe

Laurel, please, choose every single one of them as if nothing else mattered.

Power we possess..

Laurel, can you imagine me settling into a human body?

Oh, it would be a grand one! Not just any body! Only a gorgeous body, with all the bells and whistles that really count. Capable of BIG dreams to remind me of what I'm capable of, and the strength to spin the world in the palm of my hand.

That's why I picked yours, and a few others.

Laurel, if you knew of the power you possessed, at this very moment, you'd cry, and cry, and cry. And then, feel light as a feather.

Ommmmmmm,
The Universe

Laurel, how else did you figure I'd get another new, faster, fancier, lighter laptop, if not through you?

Whatever you focus on...

Laurel, whatever you focus on, you will experience.

When you talk about "what is" or "what was," even if you're just explaining to a friendly ear, you project more of the same into the future. If you ask more than you give thanks, you'll believe less in your own power. And if you insist that it's hard and that you're lonely, you'll find that it is, and you are.

Yet, always you can choose to focus on what's good.

Tallyho,
The Universe



Laurel... whatever you focus on, you will experience.

Teacher or student?

You know what's kind of wild, Laurel? At this very crossroads of time and space, more than ever before, there are so many billions of people yearning to awaken and understand the truth about themselves, their divinity, and the magic.

You know what else is kind of wild? Just as this need arose, simultaneously, all over the world, there have appeared the greatest teachers, though in far smaller numbers, who have ever graced your plane. Those who are actually living these truths, leading with the example of their lives, and healing those in need through simple conversation.
Want to know what's even more unbelievable? That you sometimes consider yourself more of the student.

All bow,
The Universe


Nope, don't worry, Laurel, it hasn't affected your performance. You're already a legend.

Seek understanding...

If you would see everything filtered through the light of truth, Laurel, you'd never, ever again know sadness, lack, or limits. You'd see that you are safe. Bathed in love. Surrounded by admirers in both the physical and spiritual realms you grace. You'd see only beauty, perfection, and meaning. And you'd realize that just as the stark contrasts of time and space and the illusions of have and have not imprison you, so too can they make possible wings that will lift you higher.
Seek understanding, or as it was once put, seek first the Kingdom of Heaven, and everything else will be added unto you. (Same thing, different audience, grossly misunderstood to this very day.)

Cawwww, cawwwwwww, cawwwwwwwww.... (Soaring bird sounds.)

Tallyho,
The Universe



Laurel, like my bird sounds? So life-like. Now just remember, "everything else will be added unto you," because everything else is a lot. Cawwww..

Be Happy with what you have!!

What if I told you, Laurel, that you couldn't have anymore of anything... No more friends, no more money, no more anything, until you first got happy with what you have?
Easy to change,
The Universe

Actually Laurel, I'd never tell you that, because frankly, it's not always true. But, if you're not happy with what you've got, it's hard to imagine that you're really thinking favorably on those things. And the thoughts that you are thinking, perhaps unfavorable, limited, and afraid, are the ones that will receive priority in the manifestation of tomorrow. Uck.

We see what we want to see..,.

One of the greatest paradoxes of your physical senses, Laurel, is that your eyes actually show you what you believe, not what you see.
Smoke on that,
The Universe


And fortunately, Laurel, it's easier to change what you believe, than what you see.

WHAT?!!!!!!!!!!!!

WHAT?!!!!!!!!!!!!

Laurel!! Of course you can! YES, this year! That and more! Easy, done, HISTORY. Just imagine it, feel it, and leap like your pants are on fire... I'll catch you.

I'm there now, waiting, and all I can tell you is that a new, faster, fancier, lighter laptop is just the tiniest tip of the iceberg.
Whooooha,
The Universe


LEAP, Laurel, wait not a second more.

Get ready for fun!

Laurel, to put this tactfully... If you don't start doing stuff to prepare for all the fun changes that are about to take place in your life, j-e-e-e-e-z, I just don't know what might happen. But I'm darn sure I know what won't. I'm not from the IRS, but I'm here to help.     The Universe

I'm also crazy about you, Laure

Thoughts become Things

The slate's been wiped clean, the past has released its grip, and before you sparkles eternity, yearning for direction. Laurel, all that lies between you and the life of your dreams is just one teeny, tiny, gentle, little rule. Only one condition, prerequisite, principle that matters. It's not love. It's not God. It's not fate, or luck, or karma. It's not complicated or esoteric, and you needn't sacrifice, plead, or pray to invoke it. It's the only rule that's ever existed, and it's the only one that will ever exist. No reality can exist in its absence. For its mere existence, you are. With its existence, the power, the light, and the way are revealed. It's your purpose to discover it, and it's your destiny to master it. It's the beginning, the middle, and the end. The Alpha and the Omega. The be-all and end-all of every wish, desire, and dream, and you are its keeper. This caveat of all caveats is that absolutely nothing can be anything until it is first imagined. Thoughts become things, nothing else does. And so, Laurel, it's the thoughts you choose from here on out that will become the things and events of your life, forevermore. It is written in stone. There's no other way. It's your ticket to anywhere you can dream of. Your passport to abundance, health, and friendships. The key to the palace of your wildest dreams. Your thoughts, and your thoughts alone, will set you in motion. Your thoughts will yield the inspiration, creativity, and determination you need. Your thoughts will orchestrate the magic and inspire the Universe. Your thoughts will carry you to the finish line if you just keep thinking them. Never give up. Never waiver, doubt, or ask. Aim high. That you've even received this Note, that you're able to read it through, means you are so close. So extraordinarily close. The hardest work has been done. The wars have already been waged. The lessons have already been learned. The journey, now, is for home. Ain't no Blarney,     The Universe

You're so deserving. You're ready. Laurel, it's all that lies between you and the life of your dreams.

Take Risks

Do you know what they all have in common, Laurel? You know, the billions and billions who came before you, who used to live in the jungles of time and space. Their adventure is over. You know what else? Given another chance, they'd take more risks. Not because they'd always succeed, but because from where they are now, the glory of knowing they at least tried, far exceeds any regrets of never knowing what might have been. Tallyho,     The Universe

Laurel, it's NEVER too late to try something new.

Expect to Achieve

Those who achieve great things, defeat long odds, and become legends, Laurel, didn't have anything you don't have. They just kept showing up, expecting a miracle, long after everyone else got practical. Here comes one now...!     The Universe

And, oh, we love when that happens, Laurel. Great excuse for a rainbow, a snow day, or a shooting star...

Baby Steps

Great big, innovative, world changing ideas... are plentiful, Laurel. People who take tiny little baby steps towards them, are rare. You are so acing this life,     The Universe

Take the baby steps, Laurel, they summon angels, unleash energies, and are the number one cause of millionaires, not that the latter necessarily matters... just sayin'.

You can do it!

You can do it, Laurel. It's why you're there. And it's why I'm here -     The Universe

Though, Laurel, I have to admit that the view here totally rocks, too.

Together we can do anything.

It's working, Laurel! Every day you're getting closer! Everything you've ever wanted is being pressed toward you. Everything is clicking. Don't let the illusions trick you. Don't let the events of today dampen your spirits. Things couldn't be any better than they now are. You couldn't have more reasons to celebrate. Now! Do it! The hardest work is done! Just show up, be present, open every door and let events unfold. Life is your stage. This is your parade. Together we can do anything. I love it when you're hot,     The Universe

Together, Laurel, also means we share your new, faster, fancier, lighter laptop! Cool?

Do something for someone!

I bet you could do something for someone today, Laurel, who'd remember it for the rest of their life. In a good way. On your mark, get set... The Universe

Actually, Laurel, you do it all the time.

When something painful happens...

When something difficult or painful happens, Laurel, always look to see what it makes possible that wouldn't have otherwise been possible. Like a new adventure, a closer friendship, or chocolate in your peanut butter. Everything makes you better, The Universe

Clever of me, huh, Laurel?

Remember Birthdays

Never underestimate the immense importance of someone's birthday, Laurel, to that same someone, on that very day.

It's like, really, really HUGE.

Especially when you appreciate that they chose it, probably one million years ago, surrounded by the wisest of the wise, scared to pieces by rumors of tigers, volcanoes, and cough medicine. Yet encouraged, nevertheless, by tales of romance, adventure, and... you.

Really.

No, really!
Thanks,
The Universe

And, Laurel, not that it should matter, but never underestimate what good may befall you when you remember that special someone, on that special day.

What comes back....

No one loses anything, Laurel, that doesn't eventually come back.
Love, grins, and horseshoes -
The Universe

And usually, Laurel, it comes back bigger, better, and zippier.

Think Highly of Yourself

What if, Laurel, the coolest person on the planet didn't know they were the coolest person on the planet? Just because of a few self doubts, a few trace fears, or the occasional twang of inadequacy. Or because they somehow thought fame, or wealth, or popularity mattered. Or because they just didn't know the effect they had on others.

It would be a pity, huh? An absolute travesty. And of course, telling them wouldn't achieve much because they'd never believe you. Never. They'd be too modest to accept it. Too naïve to believe it. And too cool to think it mattered.
So... well... ah... let's just leave it at that -
The Universe


Please, Laurel, think as highly of yourself as you possibly can. Because no matter how high that is you will still undershoot the truth... it's just a time-space thing.

Chill....

Of all the things that matter, Laurel, that really and truly matter, working more efficiently and getting more done is not among them.
Chill,
The Universe

And, quite accidentally, Laurel, such an appreciation leads to greater efficiency and more productivity. Not that that really matters.

A "Kodak Moment."

It's pretty much always been the same, Laurel: First there's the life review, then there's the homecoming parties and happy tears flowing like Niagara Falls, and finally... the sudden and profound realization that throughout their entire life all things were, indeed, possible, and that such a concept wasn't just wishful, part-time, feel-good thinking.

It's quite the "Kodak Moment."

Whoops, here comes another one. Tissues everyone!
Tallyho,
The Universe

Of course, Laurel, these Notes are beginning to change things considerably.

Talk about magical rendezvous

Talk about magical rendezvous, Laurel...

Right this very moment, on a distant farm, there basks a fig, a nut, or a berry, whose very life force will soon be your own. But that's not all...

Right this very moment, there's a gorgeous home on a splendid property with a spectacular view, whose roof will someday give you shelter. But that's not all...

Right this very moment, there are beautiful souls on your beautiful planet, whom you do not even know, yet through your meanderings and theirs, paths will cross, love will be shared, and eternal friendships will be created. I'm still not done...

And nothing you do, or don't do, can prevent these serendipities I've just shared, and so, so many more.
Amen, hallelujah, rock me Amadeus -
The Universe

Oh, Laurel, you make me look so good... and not just the "basking nut" part.
