Something Better Is Coming

Monday, March 15th, 2010

Tim and I were playing Scrabble. I have a Z. I saw a spot where I could put the Z on a triple word spot and make the word, “zoo.” It would have given me 36 points, which wasn’t bad.

But I thought I could do better.

Something told me to wait. So I held the Z and used my other letters to play someplace else. I figured if I got a better place to play the Z, that would be fine. If not, that was okay too.

Tim took his turn and put the word, “flout,” where I was going to put my Z.

Darn, I thought. I missed my opportunity.

Then I looked at the board again.

I looked at my letters.

I smiled.

Tim’s F in “flout” was two letters above a double letter spot, which was two letters from a triple-word spot. I played the word, “froze,” putting my Z on the double letter spot and getting the whole word tripled. I got 81 points for the word.

I thank the universe for the reminder that the way I want to do it may not be the best way. If it looks like I missed a chance, the law of attraction is going to bring me something better. I just need to relax and allow and align with my nonphysical self and expect it.

Not One Single Complaint

Monday, March 15th, 2010

Tim and I have made a pact. For one week, starting today, we are not going to complain about anything, not one single solitary tiny thing. Not out loud and not in our heads.

Complaints are, of course, negative energy. Complaints aren’t vibrationally aligned with anything we really want.

Abraham-Hicks says:

“You have in your vibrational escrow all those things you want, and you could pick any one thing on the planet that’s going wrong or in your life and give it your undivided attention, and you could keep all of those things that you want from happening because you’ve activated such a vibration of lack over this one thing. Isn’t that interesting? Because whatever it is that you use as your excuse to offer your vibration, sets the tone for your point of attraction.

“Haven’t you noticed that the the worse it gets, the worse it gets for awhile, until you come to your senses? And the better it gets, the better it gets, until you fall back into your old habits? In other words, haven’t you noticed that you can get on a run where you’re feeling really good and things just get better and better and better and then some old person shows up in your life or something happens and you get re-focused or you watch CNN or you go to the movie on Global Warming and you have sort of a Resistance Relapse?”

In other words, every time we turn our attention to complaining, we activate resistance that keeps us from moving toward what we desire.

But we spend a lot of time complaining … about really silly stuff, generally.

I find it funny, actually, how someone like me and others I know can talk about the law of attraction and how like attracts like and how we create our reality and then two seconds later complain about something.

It’s like my friend and I are looking at a fire. I say, “If I stick my hand in that fire, I will burn my skin, and it will hurt.” My friend nods sagely and says, “That is so true. We must keep our hands out of the fire.” Then we both put our hands in the fire.

Well, this week, my hands are staying out of the fire.

Complaints don’t serve me. If I see something I don’t like, I will use the contrast to help me determine what I do like. Then I’ll think about and talk about what I like.

If others are complaining, I am no longer going to stick to the social convention of, “Oh, yes, I know what you mean,” which is generally followed by another story of complaint.

I will listen and then find a positive aspect and mention that.

So if you are someone who plans to talk to me this week or communicate with me this week, be forewarned. I’m off the complain-chain.

This is the week for comMENDing, not comPLAINing.

Let’s applaud life instead of jeering at it.

Want to join me in a complain-free week? Leave a comment and state your intention to join us in our pact. Let’s see what we can create together by commending instead of complaining.
