Taking massive action

Taking massive action on massive dreams amidst massive uncertainties, Laurel, is pretty much where everyone had to start.

 And then things got way easier.

 Massive love,

 The Universe

 Massive uncertainties, Laurel, are normal. Whoohoo!

What might have been

While it's often fashionable to dwell upon what might have been, Laurel, what's usually overlooked is that really and truly, it couldn't have.

 Because, invariably, any romanticized versions of how things "might have been," are based upon fictionalized versions of the past.

 Un-hun,

The Universe

 You see, Laurel, most of the time when people think the present could have been different than it is, it's because they think the past was different than it was. Happily, the future can still be anything, when you surrender to the details (and who has to do what).

Cupcakes, Ding Dongs, and Ho-Hos

Detours, challenges, and crisis, Laurel, are simply covers for miracles that had no other way of reaching you.

 It's all good,

 The Universe

 Cupcakes, Ding Dongs, and Ho-Hos, Laurel, are just plain old miracles.

Having a dream

Having a dream, Laurel, is more important than having it come true.

 Just a little oddity to spin the wheels of your mind.

 Ciao,

 The Universe

They all come true, Laurel, eventually, only to be replaced by others. Until then, they turn you on, give you hope, and bring you closer to home.

Including Thursdays

There are absolutely no worldly circumstances, Laurel, under which you can't or shouldn't be making the very best of things.

 Including Thursdays,

 The Universe

 And desserts, Laurel.

So easy to forget

It's being alive, Laurel, that makes you rich.

So easy to forget,

The Universe

 And no matter how you spend them, Laurel, each day makes you more.

What if

What if every unexpected delay, postponement, or redirect, Laurel, only meant that at the very last second, right before the scheduled manifestation, I had an even better idea?

It happens.

 The Universe

 Way, way better, Laurel... We're talking, like, pajamas with built in feet.

Yeee-haaaa!

If you're at least visualizing enough to wonder whether or not you're doing it right, Laurel, you're doing it right, and you're way, way ahead of the game.

Yeee-haaaa!

The Universe

 And if you aren't visualizing, Laurel, that's perfectly all right. Lots of people still succeed the hard way.

Ever wish for do-over days

Ever wish for do-over days, Laurel?

You know, hit the reset button and give 'er another shot?

 Cool. Will today work? It's never too late,

 The Universe

 Laurel, they're all do-over days, you're a forever being, and whatever you once dreamed of for yourself, I still dream of for you.

Each challenge

Laurel, each challenge adds to the suspense, adds to the mystery, adds to the chaos, adds to the possibilities, adds to the romance, adds to the adventure, adds to the joy.

 And I say anything that adds to the joy should be embraced.

 Cool? The Universe

 There's nothing challenging that has ever happened in your life, Laurel, that one day you won't look back upon with deep gratitude.

Rebel yell optional

Once one passes through the entry gates of time and space (Laurel, this applies to you), it may be handy to know that simply dwelling upon joy, abundance, or anything else involving people, will literally draw complete strangers into your life, as if they were puppets on marionette strings.

Creating new and totally unpredictable circumstances that will bring you more, more, more of whatever you were thinking about.

 Rebel yell optional - The Universe

 And, Laurel, they don't have to be that strange.

Even proud..

Usually the most beautiful people, the most popular and loved, the "in" and chic, cool and hip, are the last ones to ever wonder about life, how it really works, manifesting change, and making a difference. Laurel, you beat the system.

 Ever proud, The Universe

 So proud, Laurel. I tell anyone who will listen that I knew you before you were even a "wispy-wisp." And they're all like, "No-o-o-o way!"

Say it with love...

Whatever you have to say, Laurel, say it with love.

 Love you, The Universe

 And whatever you have to hear, Laurel, hear it with love.

Acres of diamonds, baby -

Don't get me wrong, Laurel, I'm an absolute zillionaire many times over, and I thoroughly enjoy the freedom it gives me.

Yet I can't help but notice that for many, if they spent less time gainfully seeking opportunities for abundance that might one day pan out, and more time doing what they already know, with what they already have, from where they already are, they'd have a lot more of the stuff.

 Of course, the best barometer of any pursuit's likely windfall is happiness with its journey, which in every regard overrides what I first said.

 Acres of diamonds, baby - The Universe

 And believe me, Laurel, I started with nothing.

Do you know ...

Do you know how most people get jobs they love, Laurel? They first loved the job they had, and everyone noticed.

 And I do mean everyone. The Universe

 The same goes for most people, Laurel, who get cars they love, homes they love, people they love, and bodies they love.

When you see things

When you see things that pain you, Laurel, that sadden you, or that make your heart ache, remember... you're not seeing all. I hope you never need this one.

 All love, The Universe

 Yeah, Laurel, and I do hope you "need" all the abundance ones I've sent. If you're down with abundance, and all.

All things are...

I hope you know how important you are, Laurel, in contributing to the "all things are exactly as they should be" concept, on this very day. Because without you, they wouldn't be.

 Big hug, The Universe

 Not even a little, Laurel. Same for tomorrow.

What if I told you?

Laurel, what if I told you that your every conflict, disappointment, struggle or challenge, with others or yourself, was merely a manifestation of what's going on within your own thinking...

 would you go there first to fix, mend, and allay?

 Yeah, you might miss the drama.

 The Universe

 Would you, Laurel?

See the difference?

Be there, Laurel.

Go there now and never leave. Imagine that your dreams have already come true. Live your life from that mindset. Predicate your behavior on that reality, not the illusions that now surround you. Filter every thought, question, and answer from there. Let your focus shift and be born again - because dwelling from, not upon, the space you want to inherit is the fastest way to change absolutely everything.

 See the difference? The Universe

 All together now, Laurel, "Because dwelling from, not upon, the space you want to inherit is the fastest way to change absolutely everything."

From time to time,

While you might, from time to time, envy others, Laurel, it's precisely during those moments when you might ask yourself whether or not you'd actually like to be them.

 Envy cured. Huh?

 The Universe

 Personally, Laurel, I think you and I have it made.

Dream on and dream big

You've got your agenda. I've got my agenda. OK... so my agenda is actually your agenda. You do have an agenda, Laurel. Right?

 Dream on and dream big -

 The Universe

 Whatever you want, Laurel, dwell upon the end result and move. I'll connect the dots.

You're alive!

It's true, Laurel, sometimes when you've had a difficult day, or met difficult people, been let down, disappointed, or heartbroken, it's easy to completely forget the most important thing of all... you're alive.

 Without even trying.

 Who loves ya? The Universe

 You're alive, Laurel, and you will be really happy again (if you ever wondered)
