Aren’t they all one package? When you feel peace in your life and joy in your heart you can feel at peace and when you are at peace with joy, abundance and prosperity easily manifest in your life. When you experience this you want that feeling always. Isn’t this feeling really love?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Our quest is learning how to attain these feelings every second of our lives. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We are part of a huge movement of people that feel the same. If you watch this trailer for the new movie called The Shift you will feel the excitement. See how this excitement allows us to more easily empower ourselves to attain what we choose.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We are flying and others are flying with us. We are reaching that point of collective consciousness when 51% of the people on earth will be feeling the same way we do and suddenly we will all be catapulted into joy and happiness and peace and prosperity. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If this interests you take a look at this clip. It will inspire you and help you realize this is happening! One of the more powerful aspects of this trailer for me is when U.S. House of Representative, Dennis Kucinich, states he has proposed legislation for a cabinet level Department of Peace, where compassion is integrated as part of the work of the government. I want to be part of that! Imagine, how powerful!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://theshiftmovie.com"&gt;Here is the link.&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Hope you enjoy it.

Turn off the news. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This is something to remember now. Tape this message to your mirror. Record it and make an mp3 out of it. Put it on your screen saver. Do whatever it takes. “My love, joy and gratitude, brings prosperity directly to me and I love myself.” Look into the mirror and directly into your own eyes and repeat this statement several times a day. When away from the mirror remember this statement. “My love, joy and gratitude, brings prosperity directly to me and I love myself.”&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Increase the amount of times you say “I’m Sorry, Please Forgive Me, Thank You, I Love You” daily. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I bet you can remember times in your life which were your lowest that somehow catapulted you to a new great level in your life. This is one of those times for the world and for every single one of us. We are right at the end of the catapult bar. It is about to be released and we will be on our way. Flying through the air and sent away in a great new direction. We must ensure that our direction is a spectacular one. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Now is the time we must really visualize the positive, breathe in the positive, act positive, see positive, live positive, be positive. Have faith that the universe will deliver because you are worthy. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Do not lower yourself to talk about the negative. State your positive intention to anyone who speaks negative. Do not be shy; speak out for the positive now. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Visualize the earth and its countries in great unified prosperity. See us all excited and joyous with great big prosperity smiles. We are all holding great big cashable checks! We have wads of cash in our wallets. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We are all getting along and it is evident in the great feeling of love all around us. It is unmistakable. Everyone feels positive and experiences it. Our life has now taken a shift and it really feels like we are living in heaven on earth. My gosh we are living in heaven on earth. See it feel it believe it. It is here. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I love you!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Maryellen V.

Many say that it is the message for 2008. In our spiritual journey many say this is the message the divine wants us to grasp this year.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I have often pondered this phrase. What in the world can it really mean? I wonder if you think about the same thing? Does it mean that we all have the same thoughts? Surely if we are all one then we must think the same. No, we definitely don’t think the same!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Somehow we are the same. What is it that makes us all one? We all look similar but I think the meaning of we are all one may also encompass animals and plants, (the earth). So really we don’t look the same or similar.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Our feelings, well they are similar but often at different times.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Let’s introduce love into this. Suddenly I start to understand. Perhaps we are all one and it shows up in our feelings and love for others. This must be part of it and it makes me quite sad. I try not to stay there for more than 17 seconds because I don’t want to create anything negative but it does make me sad. I say this because for more years than I can really understand many human beings have treated other human beings and animals and the earth as if we were separate from one another in feelings and love.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In reality if we are all one and it is most obvious in our feelings and love then what is all the fighting for?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If we are all one in our feelings and love then if you think of your supposed enemy, that person has the same feelings and love as you. That person shares the same love for their children and feels the same feelings of happiness and joy and loss and confusion as everyone else. If you think of an animal they have feelings and love too. They can’t express it exactly the same as humans but they have exactly the same feelings and love.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Our thought processes are different of course. This is on purpose to help us create. The feelings are the same. We are one because we feel the same feelings.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Surely with this knowledge we can progress toward peace.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A while back I watched the movie called The Moses Code. You can find it at &lt;a href="http://www.themosescode.com/"&gt;http://www.themosescode.com/&lt;/a&gt;. If this subject interests you then the movie would be a good one to view. I believe you can see it on line for about $6.00.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I especially liked the movie because some of my friends are in it. I will share with you more about them at another time.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;With Love,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Maryellen&lt;br /&gt;http://www.ItsMySymphony.com/&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.itsmysymphony.com/"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/5070653726815934869-1692889016638132472?l=itsmysymphony.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://itsmysymphony.blogspot.com/feeds/1692889016638132472/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=5070653726815934869&amp;postID=1692889016638132472' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5070653726815934869/posts/default/1692889016638132472'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5070653726815934869/posts/default/1692889016638132472'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://itsmysymphony.blogspot.com/2008/07/are-we-all-one.html' title='Are We All One?'/><author><name>Maryellen Vastola Little</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00839936644989417916</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='29' height='32' src='http://bp3.blogger.com/_IMObtfV00Ao/R3xUtB3VdRI/AAAAAAAAAAU/g8EhEDF44xc/S220/mom+2007.JPG'/></author><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5070653726815934869.post-3126197603137505755</id><published>2008-06-24T15:32:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2008-06-24T15:47:24.418-07:00</updated><title type='text'>World Wellness Weekend</title><content type='html'>Hi All,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I attended a World Wellness Weekend a couple of weekends ago.

There were a series of events that are the signs of something tremendously loving and giving going on in the heart of a young teen!I checked my email in the morning and found an unusual email from someone whom I did not recognize. I asked them to unsubscribe me. They responded telling me that they were members of my list, they had made a mistake sending the email and they were sorry to bother me. I told them that it was OK and to put me on their list. I did not realize that they were list members and that I would love to learn what they are doing. We got to exchanging several emails and we decided to talk that night over the phone.It turns out that this person is the manager for a delightful 14 year old actress/model who believes in the law of attraction. This young model was homeless but now is moving to California as her career demands all thanks to the LOA!This lovely young lady has organized a seminar for homeless and very poor teens. She wants to teach them the law of attraction! The seminar is called From Rags To Riches! Morris the Miracle Man from The Secret will speak at their event. They have asked me to speak too!Here is the significant part…….while we were exchanging emails today someone was out in front of my house loading a sofa/bed into their car that I had put out in front of the house for garbage. The Salvation Army would not take it because the fabric was ripped. The woman who took the sofa/bed rang the doorbell to make sure it was OK to take. It took her and a gentleman quite a long time to get it in her SUV. This was all happening while I was exchanging emails with the model’s manager. It was quite a noisy operation and as I typed I couldn’t help but be aware that they were outside loading the sofa/bed into the SUV.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I went outside to give them a rope to tie the back of her SUV shut because it stuck out the back. When I went out there, in between my emails with the models manager, the woman taking the sofa/bed said that she was taking it for an organization that gives furniture to people who have none and to people who are taking in foster children that need a place for them to sleep.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I thought of the connection between me exchanging emails with a woman organizing a seminar for homeless teens and the woman taking the sofa/bed in front of my house. This must be a sign, because we are all becoming more and more aware that there are no coincidences.Now for the clincher! The manager and the model are holding their seminar on June 6, 20008, in Toronto. They have the hotel lined up and speakers and donations from people such as Oprah and law of attraction books to give away. They need to find a sponsor. They need $60K for seminar costs.They are doing this with the LOA faith that something will come through for them any minute now.{!firstname}, if you know where they may find $60K or part of the $60K for this please let me know and I will connect you both. I will post more information on this young philanthropist as she sends it to me. In the mean time please contact me if you have a suggestion how they may raise the funds!Here is one of her web sites: &lt;a title="http://www.freewebs.com/madisonlindstrom" href="http://www.freewebs.com/madisonlindstrom"&gt;www.freewebs.com/madisonlindstrom&lt;/a&gt;  and another &lt;a href="http://www.madisonlindstrom.com/content/"&gt;http://www.madisonlindstrom.com/content/&lt;/a&gt; .If you do a search for her you will find a lot of information her name is Madison Lindstrom.What a great miracle that is still developing!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;{!signature}&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.itsmysymphony.com/"&gt;http://www.ItsMySymphony.com&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.prosperitychecks.com/"&gt;http://www.ProsperityChecks.com&lt;/a&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/5070653726815934869-7750489392149689053?l=itsmysymphony.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://itsmysymphony.blogspot.com/feeds/7750489392149689053/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=5070653726815934869&amp;postID=7750489392149689053' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5070653726815934869/posts/default/7750489392149689053'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5070653726815934869/posts/default/7750489392149689053'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://itsmysymphony.blogspot.com/2008/05/was-it-meant-to-be.html' title='Was It Meant To Be?'/><author><name>Maryellen Vastola Little</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00839936644989417916</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='29' height='32' src='http://bp3.blogger.com/_IMObtfV00Ao/R3xUtB3VdRI/AAAAAAAAAAU/g8EhEDF44xc/S220/mom+2007.JPG'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5070653726815934869.post-1203061226240219682</id><published>2008-04-05T06:08:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2008-04-05T06:21:07.259-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Hurry to be a part of this today or tomorrow</title><content type='html'>Dear Friends,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;There is a wonderful movie premiering throughout the world today and tomorrow.

This is the city where I was born and lived for over 40 years. This is a view from the side door of my home. I lived on a corner. You can see the 2 streets. One on the side and one in front. This amount of snow is mild for us. I miss the snow now that I am living in San Antonio, Texas. The snow can be so beautiful and peaceful, perfect for mediation.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://bp0.blogger.com/_IMObtfV00Ao/R-pnWjF6z2I/AAAAAAAAACA/Tep9in8Gw1c/s1600-h/Tonya%27s+yard.bmp"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5182067958318026594" style="FLOAT: right; MARGIN: 0px 0px 10px 10px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://bp0.blogger.com/_IMObtfV00Ao/R-pnWjF6z2I/AAAAAAAAACA/Tep9in8Gw1c/s320/Tonya%27s+yard.bmp" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A friend and list member sent me a photo of her backyard from a storm just about 2 weeks ago in Arkansas, also March. She says she meditates back there. What a beautiful place to free yourself from thoughts and memories. Thank you Tonya! Here is what she says about her spot:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"This is a picture of my "ESCAPE" I have a glorious pond in my back yard that I get to go out in the summer and lay in the soft grass and just listen and float away.. of course I live pretty close to the lake too.. so when I really need to "get away" I go down there and lay in the sand and listen to the water hit the edge of the sand. It's magnificent."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Meditation is the best way I have found to help free my subconscious of limiting beliefs. I highly recommend it. You will find many great meditation CD's downloadable on MP3 or for your IPod or CD's and tapes.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The most important thing is to remember that you are deserving of all the wonder that life can bring you.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I'm Sorry, Please Forgive Me, I Love You, Thank You,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;With Love,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Maryellen&lt;br /&gt;http://www.ItsMySymphony.com&lt;br /&gt;http://www.ProsperityChecks.com&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/5070653726815934869-8141538057751160987?l=itsmysymphony.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://itsmysymphony.blogspot.com/feeds/8141538057751160987/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=5070653726815934869&amp;postID=8141538057751160987' title='4 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5070653726815934869/posts/default/8141538057751160987'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5070653726815934869/posts/default/8141538057751160987'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://itsmysymphony.blogspot.com/2008/03/hi-all-i-wanted-to-show-you-photo-of.html' title=''/><author><name>Maryellen Vastola Little</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00839936644989417916</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='29' height='32' src='http://bp3.blogger.com/_IMObtfV00Ao/R3xUtB3VdRI/AAAAAAAAAAU/g8EhEDF44xc/S220/mom+2007.JPG'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://bp2.blogger.com/_IMObtfV00Ao/R-pi0DF6z0I/AAAAAAAAABw/pWHo4ObKGUw/s72-c/Buffalo+Snow1.JPG' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>4</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5070653726815934869.post-8252457543722581013</id><published>2008-03-19T13:34:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2008-03-19T13:43:06.884-07:00</updated><title type='text'>In Giving We Receive</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://bp3.blogger.com/_IMObtfV00Ao/R-F6BjF6zxI/AAAAAAAAABY/qZuRy2nxu0s/s1600-h/Robert+Foster.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="float:right; margin:0 0 10px 10px;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="http://bp3.blogger.com/_IMObtfV00Ao/R-F6BjF6zxI/AAAAAAAAABY/qZuRy2nxu0s/s200/Robert+Foster.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5179555213471305490" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I received this deep thought message from a friend and list member Robert Foster and  I wanted to share it with you. My guess is this is what is in your heart as well.  Just a little food for thought. Thank you Robert!&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;Well, today while reading the e-mge that was greatly enjoyed as the many I have received from you, "you asked the question", what would I, me, myself like for you Maryellen V. Little, to write about. Wow! If only, the entire planet understood the power behind this offer you've extended.  Because as thoughts become things, you have offered "All"...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We'll here is my heart, my soul, my spirit, me, at the very core of me, the very desire I have! That is greater than anything else I know of. I desire to be a Giver of every resource needed, desired, wanted, hoped for, yet to be realized, lost and or hoped to be found by and to mankind.  "if a region would benefit for an economic structure to be established if a community that is producing all that we enjoy here in the US, then I desire to be a giver of this, if a young man or women desires to the next DaVinci, Einstein, Picasso, b.Franklin, Henry Ford, Gandhi, mother Teresa, or whom ever, then I desire to be a part of contributing to making this happen for them. Give land, give resources, give money, give hope, give ideas to build better communities, give cars, or trains, or planes, or boats or ships "or my favorite-tug boats", ahahahah lol, &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Each day for the next 100+ years, be a Giver, of joy, laughter, MUSIC, oh yes, build schools for those that desire to study any ART, give, give, give. Give all that will be the tools to mankind, that will catapult them into walking into their deepest dreams, desire and goals....  And along the way, Maryellen V. Little, give a hug to a stranger wrapped in, what I could see they so desired and needed that very day', from a cold ice-cream, to a hot cup a-Joe, to what ever they desired.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Well, if you can write about this, you are truly gifted, and more than I already knew, because then you will have then captured into words, what I am fumbling with an attempt to describe the dream within me....Thank you for what you do,   Robert Foster, friend&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/5070653726815934869-8252457543722581013?l=itsmysymphony.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://itsmysymphony.blogspot.com/feeds/8252457543722581013/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=5070653726815934869&amp;postID=8252457543722581013' title='2 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5070653726815934869/posts/default/8252457543722581013'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5070653726815934869/posts/default/8252457543722581013'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://itsmysymphony.blogspot.com/2008/03/in-giving-we-receive.html' title='In Giving We Receive'/><author><name>Maryellen Vastola Little</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00839936644989417916</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='29' height='32' src='http://bp3.blogger.com/_IMObtfV00Ao/R3xUtB3VdRI/AAAAAAAAAAU/g8EhEDF44xc/S220/mom+2007.JPG'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://bp3.blogger.com/_IMObtfV00Ao/R-F6BjF6zxI/AAAAAAAAABY/qZuRy2nxu0s/s72-c/Robert+Foster.JPG' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>2</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5070653726815934869.post-8152184311167085028</id><published>2008-01-30T20:05:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2008-01-30T20:26:49.943-08:00</updated><title type='text'>One Minute Shifts</title><content type='html'>Thank you to Amy of All About Energy for sending these One Minute Shifts.

That is him with his fiance Alma in the photo to the right. We became friends because of our love for the law of attraction। He owns the most terrific, uplifting story about his life and how he used the law of attraction principles to literally change it। As he told his story at a law of attraction (LOA) meeting we all listened to every word he spoke filled with grateful belief। He explained that he was born with severe juvenile rheumatoid arthritis। He spent his childhood and teen years in a wheelchair। He often became very ill with fevers as high as 107 degrees। He took all sorts of prescription drugs and he suffered many physical side effects as a result of the disease।&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;One day Paul had a great inspiration, you'll never guess what it was, and a tried and true belief that if he really set his mind to it, he could walk. In his story he describes how he did this and began the process of learning to walk no mater what. He saw himself walking. He felt it and he lived it. He practiced every day and was determined to make it happen. He took inspired action, believed in himself, and kept his eye on what he wanted for his life. As Napoleon Hill says, if the mind can conceive it you can achieve it. Paul is the prefect role model for this motto. Read his story here to inspire you to do that which you want. Remember Paul and how he never stopped until he was able to walk. Just as he applied the law of attraction to his life you too can achieve anything you set your mind to. Read his full story below and become inspired. I mean really inspired!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Thank you so much Paul, for sharing this।&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;With Love,&lt;br /&gt;Maryellen V.

I am 41 years old and I live in San Antonio, TX. I feel that we are all good at our own specific things. One of those things, for me, is using the Law of Attraction to help me get bigger than my circumstances and bring to me my most cherished dreams. Through an intense desire, I found within me the belief that if I took consistent inspired action and never gave up, that I would eventually see my desires manifest. I hope my story inspires you to realize that by using the principles of the law of attraction you can do anything you desire. Please feel free to send feedback to me at any time &lt;a href="mailto:studio@paulallendesign.com"&gt;studio@paulallendesign.com&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I believe that the more attention we bring something the greater change that we help manifest in ourselves and others. I want to bring attention to my past only so that you will understand how I used the law of attraction to manifest my dreams. I ask you not to put too much emphasis on my painful past but to celebrate my accomplishments and be inspired by them. It's OK to address an issue if the spirit of doing so is to help yourself or others.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;You see at the very young age of 15 months old my joints were stiffening and locking up. I fell a lot and even though young children fall a lot something was not right. In my parent's quest for a diagnosis we traveled from city to city to get all the help we could. Finally I was diagnosed with severe juvenile rheumatoid arthritis. Before long I spent all my days in a wheelchair.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;My only memories were of being in a wheelchair, always. I was in a wheelchair through kindergarten, elementary school, middle school, and high school. I was in a wheelchair in the mall with my 3 sisters, at church sticking out on the end of the aisle, and with my friends playing. I spent half of my life in a wheelchair and in physical pain. This is how I grew up and honestly, it sucked. I had fun like all kids should but I was the only kid who had arthritis in common with their grandparents.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Luckily my grandparents didn’t have to endure the high fevers that often accompany the type of arthritis I had. These fevers and fever spikes always came at night and the best remedy for them was to be immersed into an ice cold bathtub. I also spent many days in the ICU of the local hospital. Once I was there for 31 days. This was way past the normal stay time in ICU, for anyone to leave alive. My nurse's name was Angel May. I will always remember her. I saw her staring at me one night in disbelief, almost fearful that I wasn't going to answer her when she asked me how I felt. I had a fever of 107 degrees. As true with the law of attraction I learned from a young age that the best medicine is to look on the positive side of situations. So when she asked me how I felt I actually said, "I'm a little warm." She said that at a fever of 107/108 she was glad that I could even answer her. I didn't know that such a fever can often kill or cause brain damage.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I could feel the heat radiating and rushing off of me. I remember opening my mouth to breathe in the cold air faster. One time Angel tried to get me out of bed and into ice water. When she touched me, her hand involuntarily jerked back as if she had just touched a hot stove. I suppose the temperature difference was enough to do that. I apologized. She was in tears. It really shook her up. By then she had great difficulty keeping her emotions out of the way of doing her job.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The love she showed me really raised me up and gave me the edge I needed. My body was simply inhospitable. I would disconnect from it and go deep down inside myself where it was calm. It was like being in the eye of a hurricane. I wondered about that story in the Bible where they say that Jesus perspired blood due to the duress of his impending crucifixion. I started to think I understood how that could be possible. Whenever my fever would break I'd actually check my sweat for blood or I'd look to see if the ice water had turned red. Of course it never did. To me it was a good sign that I hadn't reached my limit. God never gives us more than we can handle but I'm thinking that I came pretty close.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;There was so much rheumatic activity during my formative years that x-rays showed fusion of a few of my joints and two vertebrae. Eventually all of the small bones in each wrist fused themselves together. Each wrist x-ray looked like soft lead weights, which were heated and then melted together into one piece.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Somehow I found humor during all of this. I didn't realize it at the time, but I was using it to shift my energy so I could keep a higher vibration. The alternative of sadness and worry would surely have made me more ill. I’d joke with my doctor and say, "I'm just lucky I guess.” When someone asked me how I was feeling and I'd say, "I feel like 100 dollars." I still say, ala Rodney Daingerfield, "When I die, they're going to donate my body to science fiction.” The nurses and doctors always laughed at that.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We can pick our outlook and attitude from moment to moment. Our spirit is always completely separate from our body. I believe our spirit will always be perfect and our mortal bodies will always be imperfect if we believe it to be so. We are not our results. We are not our car or our house. These things are just results. Most of us wouldn’t tell a child that someday they'll be loved if they just get the right job and a gold watch. Wouldn't that be sad? But what do we tell ourselves? Isn't it just as sad when we believe this of ourselves? My parents gave me tons of love and support. I really hit the lottery with them. I understood my value from within from them.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I want to share with you that you should be sure to distinguish the performer from the performance. This is a crucial distinction. Distinguish God made from man made. The God within every one of us has the ability to make perfection through love. God doesn't make junk. And in the big blur of eons of time, a Saab with ski racks is not what it's all about. That’s the performance not the performer.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Then, one day, my life of putting up with my arthritis and living with its after effects went out the window. Physical comfort no longer had the same level of importance. I was 20 years old. High school came and went without a date or a girlfriend. I attributed this to my physical condition. The consequences of being in a wheelchair took on an entirely new aspect for me. Now, was there a girl out there somewhere who wouldn't have cared? I'm sure there was but who, where, when?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I got it in my head, I believed, that being able to walk would change things. There came the question of what was I willing to do? Was I willing to wait? No, this was just too urgent. Talk about taking inspired action. I was oh so motivated. I was willing to do anything. I was committed in the full sense of the word. The saying is that the hen just contributes to breakfast, but the pig is committed, and I was. I was ready to put my bacon on the line. For the very first time I really really, really wanted to explore the whole walking thing. My desire to find out about it far outweighed my desire to be comfortable. That is when I learned about getting out of my comfort zone to get what I want and how to get bigger than my circumstances.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The law of attraction is more a formula, not a belief system. This is just my take on it. The LOA says that your deck is always stacked, by you. Like the law of gravity, it's happening all the time whether you like it or not. Gravity makes it clear that unless you like surprises you shouldn't put your bowling ball on top of the refrigerator. While the LOA is more subtle and organic, being familiar with it can also reduce other kinds of randomness to the point of having predictable outcomes. As the lead actor in your life, you have more input than you realize. The LOA says that our thoughts, feelings and beliefs combined with our actions are what determine our results. God has put us into a cause and effect universe. We reap what we sow. Becoming aware of the LOA get us more consistent and desired results. It's not like hitting a bull’s eye with a dart. It's more like getting a water balloon through a third story window. That actually takes more practice. If you plant a rock in the ground you could pray for an oak tree to come up, but you could also just plant an acorn in the first place and move on. You have a wealth of creative control over whatever sprouts up, including the absence of an oak tree.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I had the thoughts and feelings and beliefs, so I began taking action. I began a process of just trying to stand up. Physical therapists always wanted to pull and stretch and flex me. All that seemed to do was hurt. Actual walking, which I tried on my own at home in my room, was unbearable. I couldn't put any weight on my legs so I worked on my muscles. I worked at it every day. I'd try to stand but couldn't get to my feet. After a while I could stand but then I’d just fall to the bed or onto my wheelchair. I had no joints or muscles for this. It was the agony of self-inflicted pain, but it was purposeful and focused. I told my parents and three sisters what I was doing and they supported me always. Still, as the saying goes, if it's to be it's up to me. Over the course of several months I could stand for almost an hour, but taking a step demanded so much more and my progress slowed. My joints had to move and flex and falling down was guaranteed. I finally got to where once a day I could get across my room before I caved in.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Then one day I surprised my family by walking from my room to the dinner table. It was hurried and awkward but I did it and my parents were just in awe. I was proud and they were too. It took a while for me to make that a full round trip but I was definitely on my way. It was scary to go out in public so I waited until I was sure I could stay on my feet. I learned to recognize whenever I was thinking from a place of fear and I'd ask myself, “What would I do if I wasn't afraid?” So I ventured out in public. The answer to that question always tells you what to do. Fear is just the ego tricking you. I learned how to trick it back and go around it. That one question continues to show me which way to go when I'm at a crossroad.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;When I ventured out I kept at it and finally came to the point where my wheelchair was just taking up space in the car. There was basically no way I'd ever allow myself to use it again. I was done with it. During this time I had my weekly doctor's appointment in which my doctor was much more interested in a particular blood test than he had ever been in the last 18 years. This blood test has to do with measuring inflammation in the body. It’s called a sedimentation rate. My sedimentation rate was always off the charts. My doctor came in shaking his head and said to me that my sedimentation rate was zero! Wow! The trial by fire was over and I had risen from the ashes. I attracted to me what I wanted. Through my belief and my inspired action and unwavering faith in myself and love of those around me I was able to manifest this. What a thrill. I was unstoppable!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;That was a powerful moment then and even more so now looking back on it. I had dispelled or chased away the illness. My thoughts, feelings, and actions had all been aligned in a way that demanded the healthiest conditions. In order to reach my goal of walking there was simply no place for all of the negativity of illness in my system. It wasn't serving me or supporting my goal. I had created a vacuum where the arthritis was and it was replaced with things that served me. I took a long time to master this. I like the saying, "The wind and waves are on the side of the ablest navigators." Wind and waves are just circumstances and they're never going away. The only solutions are to either master them and turn them into assets or allow them to knock you around. Wind and waves are even required if you want to discover new lands. They can sink you or propel you, whichever you choose. Circumstances aren't the issue. It's a matter of our awareness of them and of ourselves and how we engage the two.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So after a while I was dating, woohoo! Mission accomplished. The pain was still there but the intensity was different. Now I was dealing with the damage that had been done from the arthritis, not the arthritis itself. After reaching my goal, I cruised along, happy to be alive, going to college and making up for lost time. But my life wasn't automatically awesome just because of what I had done before. One of the worst things of all happened. I got comfortable. It really seems like true progress and comfort don't really mix. I was uninspired for a new goal or a new passion. I could get the girl but couldn't keep her. I finished college and did a year of law school. I couldn't see myself filing briefs or litigating for a living. There are others who are truly called to do that, but it wasn't a match for me. It just didn't feel authentic. I was drifting in relationships, spirituality, work, and health, all of the big ones.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Then one day it was "game on" again, just like when I was so driven and inspired years ago. After taking 2 transformational courses, I had some revelations and epiphanies about how I came to view myself, and the world, and very interestingly how I had formed a belief system that served me in some ways but did me a great disservice in others. I began to appreciate even more what I had accomplished so long ago and what I did to make it happen. I uncovered some limiting beliefs and I found my authentic self. Just like the slow burn that started when I first tried to walk, I started a new slow burn and began to step all the way into my power.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It took getting out of my comfort zone, again, and taking inspired action, again, along with some whole new ways of seeing and being. Feeling good is fine, but if it is a constant underlying theme of your life then you are limiting your opportunities to grow. Avoiding challenges and discomfort is like rowing around on a calm little lake. Playing it safe is playing a small game in life. Give me some wind and waves.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;After learning how to play a bigger game, I slowly created a relationship that has lasted. It hit me one day that my fiancée is the very woman I used to pray to meet when I was about 14 years old. I manifested my thoughts from so very long ago. I visualized very specific details about her and found her when the time was right. Had we met at any point before my transformation I would have messed it all up for sure.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;You may have heard the law of attraction expression that we create our own reality. On that belief the only common thread in all of our relationships is our self. We create our relationships with others. We must work on ourselves for the relationships with others to work.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I created the health that I deserved by eating food that I believe honors my body. I became an entrepreneur which literally has allowed my thoughts to become things. I have taken my ideas, filed patents on them and created them. I have finally become spiritual in a way that feels authentic.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I'd like to leave you with a recommendation of a list of certain books and movies but I prefer to recommend a live self realization course. It may cost more but for me they had far more dramatic results. I am partial to courses that address subconscious limiting beliefs via experiential exercises. All of the LOA masters talk about this. We all have hidden limiting beliefs. To this day I have never experienced or heard of anything as exquisite and as divine as this type of self-work. With all of the love and understanding in my heart, I suggest you go do this type of self work with the greatest urgency.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;For myself, I have learned to quickly recognize limiting or negative beliefs, break them up, and replace them. My mind, body, and soul have all hit a new stride. I take no prescriptions of any sort. My medicine cabinet remains empty. Minor pain and discomfort are a total deal compared to drug side effects. I use my hands a lot now and they are as true as ever and they don't hurt anymore. I've restored 2 cars that I still drive. I became qualified to captain and maintain up to 80 foot yachts and did that for a while. I also target shoot pistols very well. Lately I've done a lot of woodworking because a new patent idea calls for it. That creation actually lives here &lt;a href="http://www.paulallendesign.com/"&gt;http://www.paulallendesign.com/&lt;/a&gt;. The strength and dexterity required for any of this isn't very evident looking at my hands. It's all about believing and knowing. I learned to believe again like when I was young. Beliefs are the key difference between the person who wants X and gets it, and the person who wants X and doesn't get it. The person who got X did more than just want it, they also believed it. We never actually get what we want. We are actually just getting what we believe. If you have any recurring undesired results, try accessing and addressing your subconscious limiting beliefs. Challenge yourself here. Be willing to face yourself. This is how we eventually come to step completely into our power.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Finally, there is the saying that, change is guaranteed but progress is not. After I could walk I was still changing but I stopped progressing. I was just surviving and playing a small game in life. I discovered that if you're wanting an extraordinary life, merely surviving, especially in the middle of a developed country, is hardly remarkable. Survival here is as uninspired as breathing. Move on from that. Play a bigger game. Among many other hidden beliefs that I uncovered, I used to believe that my body kept me from getting what I wanted. Of course it was my beliefs that determined my results. In fact, I was getting everything I had ever wanted and then some, but some old beliefs told me it wasn't good enough or that I didn't deserve it. I found myself judging others because, after all, they were staring at me in my wheelchair and judging me too. That was what I thought was happening. I was really just judging myself and hating myself. Nothing outside of me was ever going to help. No amount of love from another person could ever make it all right or snap me out of it. It all originates from within. I also realized that I could never love another person without judgment until I first loved myself without judgment.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Love,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Paul&lt;br /&gt;© 2007 Paul Allen.&lt;br /&gt;Published &amp;amp; Edited - Maryellen V.
