Today's daily e-mail from The Universe prompted a bit of contemplation:Would it be as much fun, Parthena, if you never stopped laughing? If there were never any clouds? If you were never challenged? If you were never alone? If you never heard the whole truth when it hurt? If you always knew what would happen, what to do, and where to go?Or would you be like, "Beam me down, Bro!" Abraham-Hicks also brings this up when referring to the Art of Allowing Both are elaborating on the concept that difficult times make us who we are. "That which does not kill us makes us stronger." I agree with this to a large extent. I've survived many challenging experiences and have been able to draw upon them not only to get through present challenges but also to help others personally and professionally. My experiences with physical disability and grief have given me an understanding of what the hospice patients I work with deal with so that I am better able than someone who has never been there to empathize with them. Some of these challenges have also turned out to be "blessings in disguise" and a great deal of my writing is based on these experiences. Without them I'd have a bit less to write about, especially since I'm not a fiction writer!I do see one pitfall - the danger of becoming jaded or indifferent. For instance, the person who consistently gives to others but does not receive the same in return when they themselves are in need may eventually isolate themselves emotionally from other people, refusing to trust and enter into friendships or relationships. A negative cycle of belief is created when one works toward changing this expectation only to have yet another hurtful experience come along that proves the original belief "right."This leads to very deep negative beliefs that are very resistant to change even with concentrated effort and then of course, the Law of Attraction would continue to bring this type of person into our lives. I'm at a loss to determine what, other...

"I Can Set My Own Standards for Financial Well-Being. . .Once you are able to achieve and consistently maintain your personal alignment, a great deal of money will flow into your experience (if that is your desire).Do not let others set the standards about how much money you should have—or about what you should do with it—for you are the only one who could ever accurately define that. Come into alignment with who-you-really-are, and allow the things that life has helped you to know that you want to flow into your experience."From: Money and the Law of Attraction - Learning to Attract Wealth, Health and Happiness by Esther and Jerry Hicks.I'm looking forward to this new book by Esther and Jerry Hicks. "Abraham" has graced us with much of his profound wisdom on the law of attraction, the law of allowing and the power of deliberate intent. I can't wait to hear what new insights will be shared.I've been listening to The Secret in thecar regularly for about the past month now. One of the phrases that really stands out is that it's just as easy to manifest a million dollars asit is to manifest just one dollar. It is the concept of our minds seeing one as so much larger than the other that trips us up. Our belief system is locked into seeing a million dollars as a huge amount and a dollar as nothing, especially these days.Another area that this gets into is our perception of how much we really want or need to have in order to live comfortably. Some want millions to spend on toys and cruises and homes and cars. Others, like myself, just want more than enough to pay the bills, keep things in good repair and most of all, to be free of worry about money.Yet, we don't have to have money to be free of worry about it. I've been investing my energy into working with this lately. My mind knows that there is a constant flow of money and that I've always been provided for - but it insists on trying to dwell upon difficult financial times. The economy is its partner in crime altho...

Fearless Friday will be a little delayed today due to the holiday. The majority of readers enjoy these on the weekends anyway, so enjoy your holiday Friday and I promise a special treat when you return.

Whether you're a member of a church or a follower of the Law of Attraction, you're aware that freely and regularly giving opens the way for you to receive blessings from the Creator and the Universe. It is especially easy to give when we have received some extra blessings and want to say "thank you" by passing them on to others - but what about those times when things are tight and giving makes us nervous?When we are hesitant about giving freely, we are not just implying lack but also confirming our belief in it. Giving our attention to lack chokes off the flow of blessings and can shut it down completely. The next time you're faced with these feelings, remember that money and material goods are simply energies that must be circulated and that by contributing to this process, these energies will also circulate back to you.There are also times when we tend to judge whether the receiver is "deserving." I've heard many people say that they will not give to people who stand at the roadside with signs for help because it's a scam or that the person will spend the money on beer and cigarettes. Is this really any of our business? That person has been placed in our path to teach us something, and maybe their purpose is to cause us to question how "giving" we really are.Due to a recent incident, I do feel that I must include another situation that should be considered. One of the pitfalls of the internet is that it leaves a path wide open for true scammers. Any organization or individual that refuses to be specific about where the money is going should raise your hackles and should not get your money. If it's too late, then rest assured that Karma will deal with them and will do a much better job than you can.I've learned over the years that when making money is my focus, my business is not likely to do well - and worrying about when I'm going to make some sales or have some paying customers is not going to bring in an income. This time, I'm focusing on what I can give. ...

“Expectation indicates the juncture between where you are and where you want to be… Where you want to be, is your desire, and where you are, is your Set-point or habit of thought. And somewhere, in there, is what we would call expectation. Expectation, whether it is wanted or unwanted, is a powerful point of attraction… Your expectation is always what you believe. But the word expectation does imply more what you are wanting than what you are not wanting. It is a more positive word than it is a negative word, but of course, you could expect negatively—and whatever you expect, you will get!”
