I told the story recently about how I had decided to manifest olives one day (because somebody had been talking about olives around here). And the entire day there was never a sign of an olive or anything to do with them. Nothing. The next day, I decided to manifest for magic. And I started seeing stuff out and about, like a book with the word 'magic' in the title, and then I heard a couple songs on the radio with the word 'magic,' and then I got home and the Super-Nanny mentioned "a little bit of magic," and immediately after I went back to a novel I was reading and the word 'olive' was in the next sentence. Which made me laugh.

One day when I was in the car all day, I was trying to conjure up Elton John's song "Daniel" on the radio. And I was getting all sorts of other stuff, like songs from the same timeframe, another song by Elton, a song by Dan Fogelberg, a song by Dan Seals, you get the idea. I never did hear "Daniel." Then the next day sure enough, that song came on the radio in the car.

There was a protest on this forum recently from somebody who didn't like connecting the LoA to quantum physics, but it reminds me of that -- something about how you can't look at an atomic particle directly.

But this doesn't make sense when connecting the idea of intentionally manifesting something by focus, desire, action etc.

I'm sooooo confused.

Believe me, I am just as confused as you are. I wish it were possible to better control the time frame of my manifestations.

Just relax and you'll see the red hat.

I love your blog! Still, I don't quite understand what you mean when you say it works in an odd and hard to rationalize way.

You could set another intention to see that LoA works (remember to focus on outcome, not process, red hat is a process to proving IM is accurate). The third point is to relax, let go and be detached. Relax, you deserve it.

Thanks, this is some good advice. I actually have seen other things manifest, which only adds to my confusion, of course.

Eh, you must be the resident troll. Every forum's got one.
