How can I love everyone?
What is love?
Who is the face of God?
How is God love?
My personal journey for the rest of this month, and the month of may will be to understand love.
Love is probably one of the most fascinating discoveries I have uncovered so far, and I want to understand it deeper, I want to feel it.
My personal definition of love is now this:
Love is the allowance/acceptance of all things.
So is it true that all we need is love? Well, maybe it is true-if love is the allowance and acceptance of all things, how would the world change if this definition of love was taken to heart? Or better yet, forget the world, how would I change?

Everyday questions?
Are there people out there that just have everyday questions that they need advice on? Ever day frustrations that they want to discuss? Basically, everyday anythings? Well if you do, please talk to me! I really want to know what people are thinking, what people need help with, what people want to know because I find that I forget what people really want. It would help enrich my life as well as yours! Thanks!
Love, love, love?
I have been away from this blog for about two months, just figuring things out, and I have had some amazing discoveries! Most important, I have been enjoying my life-creating things I want-and finding the peace, love, friendship, and prosperity that I have always wanted.
In fact-my two month journey has been so inspiring to me that I am working on two seperate projects. One is a fictional book, and the other is a handbook about creating what you want.
The handbook is fun to write, and inspiration, and is actually being written on post it's at the moment so the ideas can move around easier! Its great!
One note....I think that two months ago, my "spiritual" journey changed dramatically when I challenged myself for one month to answer this question "HOW CAN I LOVE EVERYONE UNCONDITIONALLY?"

Financial Alchemy
www.abundanceandprosperity.com
January is almost over...which means my month of specific money exploration is coming to an end...well technically it is supposed to end, but that may or may not happen (I probably just wont write about it as much).
I cant believe where the journey has taken me. I started off not understanding money, hating money, loathing it, and needing it all at the same time, to coming to understand how important it is to have a loving caring relationship with money.
Around two day's ago I went to a website I found called www.abundanceandprosperity.com where a woman named Morgana Rae talks about financial alchemy.
She said to list the reason why you hate money, what money has represented to you, your underlying beliefs about money, then she stated that you should create a money villain-what would the money villain look like, smell like, taste like, feel like, does he break you down emotionally? Write it down, create that character that completely repulses you.
Then divorce the money villain.
After the divorce create your money honey....if money were a person, the love of your life, how would they be? What would they look like, feel like, taste like, act like? How would you act around this person? Fall in love with the character, fall in love with your new money honey.
I did the exercise, and you know what-it was awesome! The next day I found $26 which means alot to me! The exercise is great because you create an automatic new relationship with money, you can start to ask yourself what your money honey would like-you start to also realize that money desires you just as much as you desire it, and that it loves you just as much as you love it.
I suggest to everyone that they check out Morgana Rae's website www.abundanceandprosperity.com where Morgana Rae offers a free ebook and mp3 interview just for signing up for her free newsletter.
I will post examples of what my money honey, and money villains were like just to give you guys an idea!

Lucky for me I dont Like Money
These are three journal entries I wrote over the past week that involve money. This month I vowed to work on my relationship with money because I'm tired of being controlled by my negative thoughts about money-it was getting to the point of driving me crazy! I like to ask myself now, "if money was your boyfriend/girlfriend would you want to still be in the relationship?"
January 17, 2009
Today my money was not stable. I knew it was going to start coming
out of my bank account, so I braced myself for it all day. First, I
only used nickels dimes and quarters to take the bus today thinking I
could possibly avoid going to my bank and taking out the crispy
twenties.
Honestly, I hate to see money go. I want it to stay, to stick around
longer, and to keep on piling up.
(some might say, "what does money have to do with happiness? I
thought true happiness came from spirit or self, or some other far out
place." Well, that may be true, but for now I know this is true for
me: all of my relationships, the good and bad are teaching me
something and the bad relationships are especially helpful because
they give me an opportunity to open up. Lucky for me I have a bad
relationship with money, and I am happy to keep on working on my
relationship with it, because each time I do, I understand it more,
and I begin to understand myself.)
I hate to see money go
I want it to stay
I am afraid money won’t come back
I want money to keep piling up

What’s Money Doing?
-It’s coming and going
-It’s steady
-I am feeling less afraid of it
(I have found some wonderful blogs that discuss money that I happened on by chance. They are beautifully written, and I really love reading them. )
-I am starting to learn that there is nothing to fear about money….that it comes back
-Now, if I replaced the word money with boyfriend-how would I feel about this guy I’m dating? (My boyfriend is coming and going, he is steady, and I am feeling less afraid about him because I know that he comes back). Wow, it sounds like I’m starting to fall in love with my boyfriend, it even looks like a relationship worth keeping!
January 23, 2009
Money is more fun than I thought it was. Yes, it comes and goes. But
without the thought that it shouldn't go, or the thought that it wont
come back, then everything changes. Imagine telling your boyfriend,
or your best friend that they shouldn't go, or thinking they wont come
back-it hurts alot, doesn't it?
It also drives the other person crazy. It is most likely that the more you cling to a person the sooner they will become irritated when they are around you, and your
relationship is less than fun, and more of a burden. It’s the same
with money-I'm starting to learn that everything is a reflection of
every relationship in your life.
In fact, I’m starting to really love having my bad relationship with
money because it is giving me an opportunity to learn how to give
unconditional love in all of my relationships. It is teaching me to
let go in all of my relationships. It is teaching me how to have fun
in all of my relationships.
Wow!
Lately, even though money has been going, my account has still been
full. It leaves, and then somehow gets filled back up. It's nice to see
the growing number-then I spend it.
Recently I read a really beautiful article, and it made me think of my
relationship with money in a way I never thought of before- How would
money like to be treated? Whoa. Mind blowing. I was only thinking
about me (I want money to treat me nicer, I want money to stick
around, I want money to love me, I want money to be more abundant-not
only do I want it to do those things but it SHOULD be doing those
things). But I never thought about what money would WANT from ME.
How money would DESCRIBE ME in a relationship.
It would probably describe me as controlling, and stingy. While I am making it stay around me, there is no love but only tension which is obviously stressful and no fun-so when money gets the chance to leave it never wants to come back (this is how I would feel if I were in money's position).
So, with all of my rambling I think I have come to this. I have to be
the change I want to see in the relationship. I want to treat money
nicer, I want myself to stick around (I change when money isn't
around, i get more stressed, not as open, not as giving), I want to
love myself and I want to love money, I want myself to be more
abundant. It seems like alot to ask of myself-but if I thought money
SHOULD do it, then why not me first?

The Kernal or the Kobb?
I love to see people so enthusiastic about our new president. People say that he gives them hope, something to believe in, and a breath of fresh air. Yet, there is more to the story. People are feeling hopeful not because of what are president is doing (what has he done yet?) but they are feeling hopeful because of what they are doing for themselves.
People are giving themselves hope because their thinking is changing. People are giving themselves hope because they are changing how they think of themselves, of their world, of who they are. In fact, they were the only one with the power to make themselves feel better, they are doing it.
I personally feel it is important to make this distinction because if you don't, you are giving all of your power away. It is like saying "my happiness, my well being, and who I want to be all depends on....(place name here)" but when something goes wrong, or does not go your way, what will happen to all of those good feelings?
It is important to realize that "I have started to change the way I think. The way I think is starting to give me more hope. I no longer think that I have no power. I have always had the power to make me feel good."
I wanted to point this out because I want people to be able to keep their power. I want people to understand what it feels to completely live inside of themselves. To feel the wholeness of themselves.
The new president knows how to do this. He knows what it takes to be a whole person. He does not allow outside influences to dictate his personal power. HE moves along effortlessly through the world and does amazing things because he is strong within, because he is a whole person. The same goes for other amazing people that we marvel at each day, such as Oprah (a personal favorite), Gandhi, Pop stars, Movie stars. These people have personal power because they have come to understand how to utilize their thought power, and how to live completely inside of themselves
Could you imagine, just for a moment, if there were more whole people out there? Could you imagine if there were more people not giving their power away to other people, but realizing it was always they who were giving themselves hope, love, freedom, and power? Could you imagine if there were more people out there that minded their own business, that focused on themselves, that delighted in themselves, that knew that they were the only ones with all of the control in their lives. How would the world be different? Wouldn't problems be easier to solve?
If you really want to learn how to give yourself power, begin to observe. Observe when you become happy-was it the outside influence, or was it you changing your thought pattern? Remember it is always you, this whole world is about you right now because it can't be any other way-you are the one living inside of your body, and living life from your perspective.
I remember once I was down because I had no money, I only had five dollars (I guess I did have money). I took the five dollars out of one pants pocket, placed it in another pants pocket, and then left my room to go to the kitchen. I came back to my room, and reached into the pants pocket I transferred the money to, but I forgot I'd placed the money in that pocket. I was sooooo happy for a moment when I felt my hand feel the money because I thought I'd left some money in there from months ago. I didn't know it was the same money I just felt five minutes ago-I was thinking I was going to be a couple of dollars richer. Well, it turned out it was the same money-but for that split moment I became happy just with the thought I had more money.....Who made me happy in that moment, the money itself or the thought of having more money? And if I can have the thought of more money that makes me happy, and if I can manipulate my thoughts, who has the power-ME.
It's time we start giving ourselves some credit.
(Okay, so when I write it is alot of me saying *you you you. Well really, I am not trying to tell you to do anything-I'm really writing for me just as much as anyone who reads this. I really take my articles to heart. I want myself to be a more of a whole person, to have personal power, to not give it all away-why?-because I love myself.)
