After posting this morning about money (again, as usual), I needed to run to the grocery store. Got in the car, turned the key, and the radio was on, playing "Money for Nothing" by Dire Straits. 
On the way home, I was listening to public radio, and thinking about how I have such a talent for creating coincidences. I thought, I'm going back on that forum and ask how come I can conjure up songs about money, but not money? How do I turn this talent into cold hard cash? At that moment, the host was telling how to order a copy of the program and the last letter of the program number was, he said, "C, as in cash." ACK!
But these are not alpha reflections. This stuff happens to me CONSTANTLY. And it appears to have no practical value whatsoever. I just keep slogging away with that ceiling above.
I said when I first found this forum, that I was looking for an epiphany. I want an answer that really resonates, and I simply cannot find it. |
It's like you are reading my mind! I am so glad it's not just me, you are articulating what I've been feeling for ages - "having no practical value whatsoever" is exactly the way to put it. For example on New Years I wanted to manifest a night out - and someone called! All good - but they couldn't give me a lift home - and i didn't have enough money for a cab at the time and I didn't want to venture home alone at 3am in the morning for safety - so my manifestation had no pratical value whatsoever. I am actively waiting for the ah-ha moment when my intention is exactly what I wanted in my visualisation.
I've read so many books by Tolle, Chopra, Dyer, etc. sought comfort in the words of Buddha and Jesus but after a while you need to see practical action instead of reading yet another book or listening to another tape. It's like having a convo and no one is responding - after a while it'll get to you.
Nb. I am not trying to be negative about this experiment because I think collective support is great and what ALG is giving is so nice.
