Hi

I hope it's okay to post this but I just got off the phone with my sister and I bloody love her! She's fantastic, she always backs me and she and I believe in the Law of Attraction so we can talk openly about that. I know she doesn't know I'm here and I'm sure she would still support, me but I want to thank her anyway. She lives far away and we don't get to talk all the time but when we do the magic happens :-)

That got me thinking is there anyone you'd like to thank, a friend or relative who always just says keep on no matter what, or always backs you?

I hope this is okay as I know there are people here who don't feel backed and I don't want to highlight that, or make anyone feel worse, I know its a fine line.

However I'd love to hear that some of you have someone, sometimes who says well done and urges you on, or even just listens to you.

I am bursting with gratitude both for my sisters and for my new found friends here, I am a very, very lucky gal, I do know that. And I know in my up times the Universe will work with me and I couldn't be more grateful. I hope thats okay, to share my good news ....in the hope it will rub off on you ....

Thanks, she's lovely we have a good laugh and like all good sisters we have had our scraps in the past but we are waaay too old for that now, so we are much closer. She has a very good sense of humour, both my sisters do. That said I belong to a very complicated family...lol.

I wish you the same Lucy, I know someone will come along for you too.

Hi Caroline, it's great that you have that connection and the world needs more of it ;) I used to practise affirmations a lot which is basically the same theory behind law of attraction in reprogramming your subconscious mind to believe that good things will happen, but I fall out of it during low times and give up. It just feels too much work and I get to the point of thinking where it's futile. I know should probably have kept it up. I was worrying that maybe it was making me feel worse by bringing on feelings of guilt, and I've heard of this happening... Just wondering how you practise the law of attraction procedures and how you keep it up when you aren't feeling it?

OOOOh Mindblank I listen to Ester Hicks who says its okay to be angry or depressed or feel stuck etc and she explains how the answer is to soothe yourself. Not to feel guilt and to move gently when things are going badly, ease yourself into a better feeling place.

My sister who introduced me to Abe and Ester, was laughing the other day about the fact that although we know all this LOA (Law of Attraction) stuff, we often forget. Obviously I don't have all the answers but it has often made things easier or more bareable for me.

I find when I can align, when I can focus on the good stuff, things do get better for me. I wont go on and on best you look her up if your interested she explains it all so much better than I can. However what I would say is she calls what goes wrong in life 'contrast' and she explains that without 'contrast' we cannot grow as people. I love the way she embraces everything in life and she often makes me laugh, you can hear her talks on you tube.

Im only saying because you asked, Im not peddling the ideas of Ester. She also has a great attitude to death and what happens when we die which I totally agree with.

So yes I often fall out of the 'Vortex' (a nirvana type space) and sometimes I forget how to get back to happiness, but I am better because of her at soothing myself and not going to that really dark place we all fear. On the odd occasion I do go there, I just hold my breath, minute my minute, hour by hour and ride it out, I know when I reach the other side I can and will cope, I never used to have that.

It is because of Ester I recognise the strength inside me and when i feel real fear, feel in danger ( which is mostly psychological) I can say to myself now and mean it 'no one can hurt me', it gives me some comfort and from there I can move forward.

We are a works in progress Mindblank and we need to remember we f*ck up all the time and thats okay.

However working on ourselves does allow us to build a new tool kit to deal with things that overwhelm us and you will be surprised when you sit and think how much your tool kit and core base has improved from when you were 15 years old. I move slowly my development is very slow it takes me years to add new coping attitudes, but I am and I have moved forward and I think its important to recognise that.

I am a very lucky girl, I know that and try not to always let the what is-ness of life cloud my judgement as to what might happen in the future.

I hope that helps, Im happy to chat anytime about LOA it is truly wonderful when you can get onboard and even when you cant...lol.

Anything you think is valid Mindblank is valid, you need not agree with me or anyone else remember that, it it your life and for that very reason you are right in everything you do....even the f*ck ups ...lol.
