Last week, I wrote about what to do if what you want isn’t here yet. Today, I want you to think about this question: What if it IS here and you just can’t see it?
We bought a new mattress a year and a half ago. It was a memory foam mattress we put on top of a sealed wood platform that Tim build.
Here But Hidden
We loved the mattress at first. Then it began to sag. It broke down within a few months. We called Costco and they said they’d come and get it (you gotta love Costco), and we ordered a different mattress to replace the one that didn’t hold up.
The day the pick-up company was supposed to show up, we took the mattress off the platform to move it to the garage. I was shocked to discover that under my side of the mattress, a huge wet spot was mildewing on the mattress and on the platform. Tim’s side was fine.
The reason for the spot isn’t really important—but if you’re curious, I was having major night sweats during those months, and memory foam mattresses generate more body heat. We think I basically sweated through the mattress.
For all that time, I’d been sleeping on a big, mildewed water stain. It was less than 10 inches from me, and I couldn’t see it. It was right there, but if you’d have asked me if I slept on a mildewed wet spot, I would have confidently told you I did not.
You Can’t See The Energy
All physical manifestations—experiences and things—exist in energy form before they take physical form. We can’t see that energy.
Just like we can’t see the radio waves that bring us our FM stations or the waves that bring us TV and cell phone service, the energy that creates our world is there but not visible. It’s no less real just because we can’t see it. Radio waves are real all the way from the station to our stereos even though they don’t seem to be real to us until the music hits our ears.
Every single thing you want begins to form on an energetic plane the moment you conceive of it. All you have to do is allow it.
It might be just inches from you, so close you could touch it if you knew it was there. But then you start asking why what you want isn’t here. You feel like the character, Anya, from the Buffy the Vampire TV series when she says, “I’m trying to be patient, but it’s taking too long.”
The second you ask that question … BOOM. Your creation, which could be seconds from taking physical form, retreats back into energy. Here but hidden.
That big wet spot has been a big deal in my life. Every time I’m tempted to say, “Where is my …….?” I remember that spot. I remember that what I want is RIGHT HERE. I already have it. I’m sleeping on it. I’m living with it. It’s here.
For those of you who care—I don’t have a wet spot under my mattress anymore (I checked). The new mattress (different brand) has been great, and I’ve discovered a cool herbal supplement that has left me night-sweat-free. And that was a creation that was in my reality on the nonphysical level far before it landed in my physical experience.

After devoting countless hours to the labor of love that is this blog, I have decided to redirect my energy away from it. Over the last few weeks, I have been maintaining this blog (marginally) along with my new site, Up From Splat, and my other hobby blog, The Joyful Springer. I have come to accept that this is more than I want to do.
