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.
Sometimes you have to be a bit gutsy and take the opportunity when it presents itself, even if you can't see how the opportunity will lead to the complete fulfillment of your specific intention. You just have to trust that the universe will take care of the rest of the details, once you take the plunge.

Not saying that you SHOULD have done it in this case. But just for example, suppose you had just gone anyway .... You might still have met someone who would give you a lift home; or perhaps a friend would have said you can stay over at his/her place; or you would have ventured home safely at 3 am by yourself, or whatever.

Not saying that this is easy for me. By nature, I can be quite a cautious scaredy-cat myself. In contrast, my wife is quite intrepid. When half an opportunity presents itself, she grabs it in a matter-of-fact sort of way, and more often than not, things just work out in the end.
