Careful what you Ask for!

Living your Dream - will you accept the gift?

Several months ago I put a wish out to the Universe that I wanted to live in a beach house on the ocean by mid- October, 2009. WaLa...I got my wish! I was sure it would be Australia and had my sights focused there. The Universe had a different plan. Although I was disappointed, initially that Australia didn't come through, I did get exactly what I asked for. On Vancouver Island!

When we put out the intention for something we desire and match it with how WE think it should look, we often miss the subtle signs of what it actually is.

Every time I ask, I always, always get. More times than not it's not at all how I imagined! The real gift is accepting what comes and being grateful. I am constantly challenged with being more specific with my wishes. In the meantime - I'm loving my beach house on the ocean!

Thanksgiving

It's Canadian Thanksgiving Weekend and I'm wondering what are you thankful for? See, when you're truly thankful for everything in your life, the Universe will bring you more and more to be thankful for! It's simple. Think of the all things you are grateful for in this moment. Write them down. Now feel how good it is to have these things in your life. It could be family and friends who love you, a warm cozy bed, food in your tummy, a special someone to cuddle with, fresh water to drink, a puppy at your feet, eyes to read your favourite words....so many things. When you're living in the now and you recognize how lucky you are to have all these things in your life the turkey tastes so much better!
