For instance, my fascination with anthros (particularly anthro wolves). I feel a connection with them. And it is something I desire greatly. Sometimes I obscess about it. At times anthros are all I really think about.
But that's how Law of Attraction is supposed to work. You focus on what you desire. And then, you let it go.
I get excited when talking about it, because I thinik if it really works, and if anything is possible, then I can attract my greatest dream.
I don't know how long it will take. But I'm ok even if it's after I've died. I'm willing to spend my whole life seeking if that's what it takes.
But I don't go about it with that mindset. I'm going to probably start scrapbooking or something to help me visualize more strongly my desire. And I am passionate about my desire. Probably moreso than most people who aren't even sure what they want.
But that state of no desire was an interesting experience to have because I didn't have to worry about whether or not I will achive my dream. I trust the Universe, and that my dreams are out there, and that I am worthy enough to receive them. The guy said it's the law, just as if you throw a baseball in the air, it will fall down.
Though honestly I sometimes think the phrase "be careful what you wish for. You just might get it." is overrrated. I'd love for the Universe to prove me wrong there.
I mean what could explain such a deep, profound fascination?
GW, thanks for a very interesting post. Often, in spiritual circles, desires seem to have a very bad press. However, I think desire is at the core of all of infinite creation itself. What is infinite creation but the desire of the infinite mind to know and experience itself?
Desires can either edify and build one, or get into a self-destructive mechanism. As with most things, the power of desire is neutral. However, its effects upon individuals depend on the content, purpose and purity of the focus of the desires, I think.
