Beauty

Truth is, Laurel, we cry over here, because of the beauty over there.

"There," meaning, where you are.

"Beauty," meaning, you.
Wahhhh,
The Universe


You also crack us up, Laurel, a lot.

...connections...

You deserve all the love, Laurel, in the world.

Done.
Helps to have connections,
The Universe

Just a small perk, Laurel, for sharing all the love in you. I notice these things, you know.

Hear the music?

Some just hear the music their entire life long, Laurel.

It's playing right now.
Dute da dute...
The Universe



You bobbing, Laurel?

Don't resist

Don't resist, Laurel.

Don't resist.

Don't resist.
Love you,
The Universe

You can change your mind, find another way, or shop for a better deal, Laurel, but don't resist what you know to be yours.

Whatever you give, you get.

To empower another, is to empower yourself.

To celebrate another, is to celebrate yourself.

And to free another, Laurel, is to free yourself.
I say empower, celebrate, and free them all,
The Universe



See the trend, Laurel? Whatever you give, you get.

I do what I want to do....

My own personal policy, as The Universe, Laurel, is to only do those things that I want to do, with whom I want to do them.

That's part of the reason I'm always hanging around you.
Hungry?
The Universe


The other reason, Laurel, is because your imagination never ceases to amaze me.

Steadfastly hold onto a dream!

Throughout the hallowed ages, Laurel, those in the unseen have always marveled at the accomplishments and creations of humankind. Whether a sandcastle or a skyscraper; a painting or a poem; they're humbled by your ability to reflect, to engineer, to craft, and to create something that has never before existed within time and space.
But it's not the creation that impresses; these all exist here to the nth degree. It's the persistence and determination of the seemingly mortal dreamer who steadfastly holds a new thought in mind, either of the creation or of its inevitable success, and moves with it, even while the rest of the world is content dreaming their father's dreams.

This is what is admired, Laurel; not just because it's so rare, but because it is so, even when such innovative potential lies within all.

Cool, huh?
The Universe

Laurel, just follow your heart.

Think...choose....focus....

You know, Laurel, you have many gifts, extraordinary gifts. Gifts of perception, insight, and creativity. Gifts of preferences, leanings, and inclinations.

But there is one, ah yes, just one, that while often overlooked is the most sublime and profound of all, availing you of wonders beyond wonder, and the power to wonder some more. It is, of course, to think; to choose a focus; to see the world however you like... and live to see it so.

I mean, what else do you give someone who wants it all?

The Universe

Can you feel it, Laurel, right now, spinning in the palm of your hand?

What really matters?

What really matters? What's really important? Why bother? Who cares? What's it all for?

Laurel Stone. You, Laurel, it's all about you. What you like and dislike. What you want and don't want. What makes you smile and laugh. What makes you learn and grow.

Selfish? How else could you shine your light? How else could you possibly hope to lift the world? How else could you be all that we dreamed you might be?

Selfish of me -
The Universe

Laurel, it's our turn!

Plant a new image in your mind.

Laurel, in the time that it takes you to read this short Note, you could have planted a new image in your mind (anything you like, ideally with an emotional charge); I could have reacted (realigning planets, people, and the sort), and the floodgates would've begun trembling violently as we'd have been drawn infinitely closer to manifesting the vision you'd chosen.

Fortunately, there's still time.

Hot dog,
The Universe

It doesn't have to be hard, Laurel, or take a lot of time.
