More Positive Thought Required Please

We (that being Tim & I) are out on our daily walk with Marv. 

Marv is actually Martha but thanks to a 3 year olds inability to say Martha, we ended up with Marva and now abbreviated to Marv, it's what we do in our family, a quirk, a foible however you see it, but rarely does anyone retain the original name they started out with.  When on a walk Marve is really well behaved, she's 100% focused on chasing after and retrieving her ball.  She's a joy to take out, the only area that I would say is lacking is the minimal amount of time spent on a lead, where she pulls.  She's far better behaved off the lead in walking to heel, it's almost like she resents being harnessed and needs to make a point that this is a completely unnecessary evil in what is otherwise a great time for her.

 

That said between the park and the path to the river we have to negotiate a vey busy main road, with lorries, buses and white van man hurtling along.  This is the one point in the walk that we put Marv on the lead for her safety and for our peace of mind.  Today though was different, for some reason we found ourselves walking along the narrow pavement next to said busy road with Marv walking perfectly at heel WITHOUT the lead.  I'm following up the rear observing and mentally commentating on how well she's behaving when for no apparent reason, bham out of the blue, my mind is making pictures of Marv suddenly running across the busy road.  A picture where I see her distracted by something on the other side of the road which leads her to just belt across.  I am now feeling fear throughout my body as you can imagine, my mental pictures are bad enough, but I'm also now feeling my future guilt when she's maimed or dead. I can hear me berating myself for not having reacted to what I was feeling and get Tim to put her lead on.  As it turned out he was making similar pictures in that moment and he'd leashed her before I could get the words out.

 

Now, I 'talk' with someone, I don't know who or what it is and I choose not to declare it to be something specific as I truly don't know what or where it comes from.  What I do know is that I trust what it has to say, partly because it makes absolute sense once I have the answer, and secondly because the answers and actions that I may need to take are not always the easiest ones that I would like, but they are always the truthful evaluation of the situation.   I say potential as I know that I always have a choice as to whether I act on what I have learnt.  I am informed but never pressured, I am left alone with my thoughts and of course my freewill. 

 

I have conversations with this person/entity/my higher self/intuition, (call it what you will).  I say conversations, it usually goes along the lines of I ponder something, I then ask a question about what, why, where or when and I then receive what I refer to as a 'download' of information pertaining to the question/pondering that I've just had.  My answer/explanation comes 'down' all in one go and affects more than one sense; I am seeing it, hearing and feeling it all together as one experience. It feels like I imagine Neo in the Matrix must feel, when information is uploaded to his mind as he plugs back in to the Matrix again.   He learns all manor of things by having the relevant software programmes uploaded to his mind which enable him to know, mentally and physically the newly installed experience.  It's the same thing, this is just knowledge about something rather than a new ability, for now...no special powers have as of yet been download.

 

I digress.  This mornings information was about that which we attract in to our lives.  I am always interested in how to make things in our lives better, to live as our higher selves and experience the potential joy that is available to all should we choose it.  

 

NB: By Our, I am asking for everyone that is on a quest for the knowledge that I truly believe is the next step in Our evolution.  An evolution that will see Us changing through our spiritual connection to ourselves, each other and our environment.

 

I wondered why I'd feared Martha's potential demise when there didn't appear to be any real reason to think that way, she'd shown no signs of running off.  I then experienced the following:

 

"As you live now in this world, in this dimension, it is just as well that you are incapable of instant manifestation in your lives as you have yet to master your thoughts and emotions.  You are quick to let them run away with you and are quick to view a negative potential outcome before you view a positive one.  It is through your emotions that you create your lives. Fear is a powerful emotion as is it's opposite; Love.   Humanity has mastered feeling varying degrees of fear on a sliding scale, but the scale rarely moves back past the zero point, at best it musters up feelings of nice, which are not feelings of creation, for that you need love, love without doubt, a knowing and deliberate love."  

 

When we do apply love to our visions then things start to happen, and there are times that we have all done that, but in the world that we inhabit where fear is such a strong and powerful emotion, we are not encouraged to express the same level of love, in fact apart from the acknowledgement of love in regard to relationships and religion, love is not acknowledged of being of any great importance at all.  Little wonder we are not well practised in the art of creating feelings in order for them to be reflected in a physical manifestation.

 

In theory, based on studies of the Quantum Universe, we could be and should be capable of instant manifestation through our thoughts coupled with a powerful emotion. Luckily, for us, we are unable to do that, as very few are in complete control of the random thoughts of the mind.  I for one am relieved, as I understand this concept, yet still have been unable to quieten and control my mind at all times.  This morning being a classic example; where I may have found myself with one very flat dog.  Thanks to the time lag of instant manifestation our nightmares don't come to fruition either, not without considerable effort.  

 

There  are  those that will tell you that they always have bad luck and that if something awful is going to happen, it happens to them and they are right.  If you press them further they will tell you about their fears, the pictures that they make and the things the accompanying internal dialogue tells them could go wrong.  It is so deeply rooted in their belief system, it does, they get what they came for, without realising that they are the creators of these experiences.  

 

We have to learn to control our thoughts and keep them guided at all times towards that which we wish to create and experience in our lives, that, coupled with the strength of the emotion of love, which is what breathes life in to our desires.  It takes practise but that is part of the life lesson.  We have to work in creating that which we desire, but it is in that work, that once our creation has manifested, we feel so good about it and ourselves, that it will have been worth the effort that was placed in to it, a feeling that we would be denied should it just be handed to us on a plate. A feeling of our own power to create and design our lives as we would wish them to be, instead of being buffeted around on the whim of others desires for their lives, which is where most of us find ourselves at this moment in time.  

 

Next time Marv will go across the road with a vision of her being safe and at heel, accompanied by a big dollop of love whilst viewing the image.
