Happy New Year!

A new year, time to let all the SH** from last year go by the wayside for the last time!
A good time for new year resolutions. Whoever makes resolutions they keep, for real? I have, and will again. Maybe this year will be a fun one for resolutions.

Did I mention how it's a GREAT time to let go of the junk from 2009? I have to say, of all the years in my life...that one takes the cake for the most challenging, the most enlightening, the most demanding. And that's an observation, not a complaint.

I get daily inspirational notes from the website of Esther and Jerry Hicks. Esther is a channel for a group of spirits named "Abraham", for those of you interested. Yes, I believe in spirits, and yes, I believe people can channel them. Of all that I know in this life, I do know the "spirit" world is the most real of anything we have or do or can connect with. Most of us choose to be blinded by what is often thought to be reality, when in fact, reality is the biggest illusion of all.

Anyway, here is the quote for 01/01/10:

"Complaining about anything, holds you in the place of refusing to receive the things you've been asking for. Justifying about anything holds you in the place of refusing to let in the very things that you've been asking for. Blaming someone, holds you in the place of refusing to let in the things that you've been asking for. Feeling guilty, feeling angry, it doesn't matter what you call it, it is a refusal, not a conscious one. You're asking; you can't help but ask. The Universe is yielding; it must yield. It's a big question, folks: why aren't you letting it in?-- Abraham"

How appropriate for me personally to get this message. Following a week of sitting on the verge of depression, of happiness, of trepidation, of anticipation, of contemplation. And more. I believe I actually said the words, "I hate (the name of someone who I thought caused me grief this year)!" this past week. It's easy to blame, even when it appears that another person did make a significant contribution to the deliberate discomfort of another/others. In fact, she is not to blame for any of this. Rather, I should be grateful that I no longer have to deal with her negativity in any possible way. In the name of the law of attraction, nothing about her lifestyle, attitude, morals, intentions, etc., has any match to any part of me or my life, or my family. And, poof, that quickly...gone from our lives. Proof that the law of attraction works, albeit in a rather odd and unusual way for me and my family. I am thankful for the appreciation and knowing that "if" she were to ever re-enter our lives, it will be in a modified way, or it won't work. And that applies to her, and to several other significant relationships who have moved away from me in the past year or so. I'm not referring to those near and dear to our hearts, that are away due to our moves, but to those who have pulled away. There's a reason to pull away from someone else, and I'm grateful for all those who have...for it means the shift in my life is Working.

And she/that situation was just one of many odd occurrences from 2009.

So, for 2010, here is what I ask:

  • a healthy and happy family
  • a rewarding, fruitful, well-paying job in one of my areas of interest
  • financial relief, and then some
  • healthy relationships with my awesome friends
  • healthy relationships with extended family, at the levels in which they are able to participate
  • inspirations to come on a daily basis
  • spiritual growth and awareness
  • lots of love
  • more love
(and, I'm not going to curse anymore)

May you find all that you love and want!
hugs and kisses!
