Use your Imagination & Creativity to Create the Reality you Want!
Most of our physical friends really do not exercise their imagination very much.
Most people offer their vibration almost exclusively in response to what they are observing. (...)
The Universe is responding to your vibrational offering, not to your current state of being. So, if you are giving your attention only to your current state of being, then your future evolves much the same.
But if you are giving focused attention to these wonderful expanding ideas [using your imagination], the Universe now response to the vibrations of THOSE [imagined] thoughts.
The Universe makes no distinction between the vibration you offer in response to what you are living, and the vibration that you offer in response to what you are imagining.

Re: Creativity and being a Creator
If you were a sculptor on your first day of sculpting, you would not take your big clump of clay, and throw it down on the table and say, "Oh it didn't turn out right."
You would mold it.
You would get better at it.
You would get more clay.
You would get different colored clay.
You would find a way to continue to evolve in yoru creative endeavour.
And yet, when it comes to the creation that you mold with the clay of the Energy that creates worlds, most of you make no conscious effort to direct your thought.
In other words, it is as if somebody else took the clay and threw it down there, and now you spend your life just talking about how it look.
"Well, THAT didn't turn out very good.
My parents should have done something different about that." or
"The economy should be doing something different than that," or
There is injustice or unfairness" or
"I don't like the way somebody else dealt with that".
And we say, Get your hands in your own clay!
Summon the Energy through the power of your desire, and mold it through the power of your imagination.

Re: Creativity and being a Creator
Is it this, how Allowing works?
Question:
In essence, when we ask, it sets the wheels in motion to receive.
But can we only receive if we we're up to speed with what we are asking,
and we only get up to speed by being happy?
-Is this correct?
Abe:
The first part of it we are in complete agreement with:
We can only receive, when we are up to speed with what we're asking. You can't be a vibrational mismatch!
But you don't have to specifically be using your object of desire as the thing that you are focused upon.
You just have to be in the receiving mode.
So, you could use things that are easy to get you up to speed, like the game that we are playing where you are finding something that you would like to see, and then the universe is delivering it. Many of you sent in your experiences about that! And so, when you're doing something like that, it softens your resistance on a myriad of subjects. And often puts you in the place where other things that you have been resisting, begin to flow into your experience- did you get all of that? But this part... we want to clarify, start again: "in essence, when we ask, it sets the wheels in motion to receive." -yes, but we can only receive when we are up to speed with what we're asking. Well, we clarified that:
Just be up to speed!
Feeling good let sit in- no matter what your excuse is, for feeling good!
And remember, if you're not focusing on anything, your cork begins to flow!
So, just let go of the resistance, and you're golden.
..."And we only get up to speed by being happy, is this correct?" -well, you can call it happy. We want to use many different emotional labels, because when you're feeling satisfied, or when you're feeling eager, when you're feeling love or appreciation, and if you want to put all of those under the umbrella of "happy"- we think that's just fine.
But you can be very satisfied, or interested in something, you can be interested in learning something and be up to speed... happy is a good emotion, too.

Re: Creativity and being a Creator
Observing "what-is" tends to only regurgitate what we already believe.
(Reactivating resistance).
HS:
Is there some kind of a pre-destiny in following that inner guidance, that inner path?
Abe:
Only in this sense: It was decided, or known, as you were making the decision to come into this body, that
You're a creator.
And that through your exploration, you would expand.
And that expansion is necessary and delicious.
But we would call that predetermined or pre-decided by you, intentionality.
HS:
By me -me-, or me -my Inner Self me-?
Abe:
You, your Inner Self.
HS:
Both of us? Teamwork?
Abe:
At that time, there was no split in you, because you hadn't come into consciousness that could think independently. So you said "step one is: I will think independently. I will know what I don't want. I will know what I do want! And in my independent thought, I will discover things that I do not want, and in the discovery of what I don't want, I will simultaneously discover what I do want, because every component of the universe has
wanted and absence of wanted within it."
And you knew that, and you said: "Sometimes it is necessary for life to show me what I don't want, before I can even know what I do want! Because it has to be personal."
So, when life shows you what you don't want, and then you know what you do want- you've launched that rocket of clarity. And you, and therefore we, have reached into a new place where we have never been before! And we immediately go there, because we have no resistance. You are slower in coming along, because you've got beliefs that keep you from immediately going there.
But when your desire for feeling good becomes stronger, than holding to a belief that you don't care about... The other day, we've been telling this story. We may even have told it to you directly! Esther was in Del Mar. She has a house there. She hadn't been there in months, she was sitting at her desk, looking out where the ocean should have been, and couldn't see the ocean. And she realized that in the months that she'd been gone, the trees had grown in, and the bushes from the side had completely obscured her view from sitting at the desk!
Which was why the desk was there. So her gardeners came later that day, and she said: "I'm blocking my own view. Could you guys trim this edge, so that I can see the ocean?" And they said: "Happily!" and then they said: "But there are trees down in the ravine, that might be part of what you're seeing!" and Esther said: "Well, I only own half of that ravine. Just be sure that it's on my property." and they said "We've got you covered!" -and off Esther went to lunch with her friend. They were gone many hours. They shopped and ate and explored, and when Esther came back, she walked onto her deck and went in and looked out the window, and the ocean was back.
She was so happy to see it! Then she looked out a little way on the hillside, up very close to neighboring property, and saw something that made her gasp: Two very large tree stumps. Cut all the way down to the ground. And Esther thought: "How in the world did that happen?? I thought i was so clear!" and then Esther began feeling guilty right away, and so sorry. And then she tried to make herself feel better, and she thought:
"Well, that house is under construction. Maybe it's new people, and they don't know those trees were there!" -so she worried about it for a day or two, off and on, whenever she thought about it.
And then one day, she looked out and she saw a man in a suit standing out on that patio- it's across the ravine, Esther's never been over to that house- standing in a suit, looking at the tree stumps. And then he took his phone out, and took a picture of them, and Esther thought: "I better go confess." But she'd never been over there before, so she didn't know how to get there. Is that a road down, that leads up? Or road up, that leads down? It took her a while to get there. And when she got there, he was already gone. But on her way over, she had practiced her confession: "I didn't mean to do that, and I'm so sorry! But I did do it. And I will make it up to you, in whatever way you want! I'll plant new trees. I'll landscape your whole yard- whatever makes you feel better. I am so sorry!"
-But he wasn't there. So she didn't deliver her speech. So she just went home, and continued to practice it. And then, a day or two later, she went with her friend off to lunch again, and when they got back she said to him: "Look what I did!" -took him out on the patio and pointed at the trees. And her friend said what? "Esther, your gardeners didn't cut those trees down, while we were at lunch! Why isn't the hillside all torn up? Where is the debris from the trees?"
And Esther thought: Hey! and then they walked out to the edge, and she looked up close to her property, and there was a very small stump with all the debris from it lying right there, where they had cut it. And all that had happened is, the gardeners had cut down a little tree that let Esther see things, she wasn't used to seeing. And Esther thought: "It's embarrassing that I believed something so dumb! It was completely illogical. It didn't make any sense at all, that those two men in three or four hours... they would have had to have a helicopter and a saw, and just cut it off at the bottom and carried the whole thing away!"
There was no possible way that that could have happened. But Esther believed that she had done that. The circumstantial evidence was such. The way it had unfolded in her experience- she believed something, that was truly illogical. It shook her up! Esther said: "I bet there's all kinds of really dumb things that I believe, like that, that are in my way! That I just keep carrying forward, for no good reason. Because circumstances just make that the path of least resistance, relative to the momentum that I've got going."
And so, you do- all of you- have many beliefs that you are nurturing, that you continue to keep active. that prevent you from your true reception of what's truly going on. Here's a very powerful statement:
If your desire is strong enough, any belief that's in its way, will fall by the wayside.
But most of you -because of your attention to other humans, and your desire to find mutuality with them, you choose harmony with beliefs that don't serve you- rather than upset them.
Rather than harmony with the beliefs that your Inner Being holds about you, that serve you completely, you don't want to be a freak. You don't want to be a pollyanna. You don't want to believe things that most people don't believe.
You want to believe the circumstantial evidence, because most of you are conditional.
We mean: You, meaning humans, are conditional in your thinking! So you keep observing what-is, and you keep bringing the vibration of what-is forward, even though your very existence means, you are here to create new.
You're not here to regurgitate what's already here!
You are here to become freer. To become wholer. To become newer. To feel better!
You didn't come to regurgitate what-is, and yet, most of those around you are true regurgitators.
And if you stand out not as a regurgitator, sometimes they want to call you weird or freak or pollyanna, or "not facing reality".
HS:
Aren't those regurgitated beliefs manifestations as well (Abe: they are!) ...from something, that happened when you were five or six years old?
Abe:
Something happened 20 years ago, and if you didn't keep thinking about it, it would completely be out of your vibration- within three days! But because you talk about it, you keep bringing it forward 19 years, 18 years, 17 years, 15 years... and so, here it is. Right here, still active in your vibration, even though it has no relevance other than the relevance that you've given it, because you keep it active in your vibration!
So it continues to be in the way of what you want. but your blessed Inner Being- even though your Inner Being knows that you've got things in your way, your Inner Being is always looking for a path of least resistance to call you around it! Over and under it. In other words, to show you that you can get to where you want to be, no matter what beliefs that you hold. But isn't it nice, when you are willing to acknowledge that you have beliefs that are in your way, that are not valid? And what we're saying to you, with this segment, is:
The less you try to find mutuality with the girls in the nail salon, because they're lovely they are lovely and there are positive aspects... Esther one day realized, we've been talking about positive aspects for as long as she can remember. And somehow she was thinking that what we meant was -in every situation, or in every individual, there are positive and negative aspects, so line up the positive ones, line up the negative ones, and focus on the positive ones... and all of a sudden, she understood what we really meant. We meant:
Focus upon any aspect that causes you to feel good, while you focus upon it!
It's not an evaluation. It's not a determining what's positive, and what's negative! It's looking for mutuality with your inner being. It's looking for what feels good when you find it, you see!
HS:
And what feels good- a positive desire can blast out an old negative belief!
Abe:
Because, you see, every individual is like the universe at large. Within every particle of the universe is wanted and absence of it. So, in every individual, there are aspects of them that you want to find mutuality with, and aspects of them that you don't. But most people want the other to change, to be mutual to you, rather than just looking for what is mutual. Or looking somewhere else to find it! Oh, you could be living such wonderful lives, if you would realize, that in every place you look, there is mutuality. And it's up to you, to find it. But when the first thing you do, is find something that's missing- then you harmonize with what you're mutual on, that takes you away from your Inner Being. And then, you struggle and need them to change, so that you can feel better. You got that, didn't you?
HS:
Yeah. Is that... is that mutuality? Because part of me attracted like, some negativity, and part of me attracted some positivity. and everything that I... I attract to myself.
Abe:
That's a perfect statement. Because you've attracted it all.
Nothing is coming to you, that you haven't attracted. But here's the thing: You could be in a place of true alignment. Maybe you've been meditating for a while, and you're tuned in, tapped in, turned on, and you are in alignment, and in that alignment, you attract someone to you- let's say an individual to you, who has that mutuality.
In other words, that person has that potential or maybe even that going on actively, right here right now, and even though they might have a whole lot of other things that you don't want to think about ,or that you don't want to be mutual with, doesn't matter. You are focused upon and active about the thing that does, until you get so nosy about everything, about that person. You meet new people, law of attraction brings you together, and the first thing you do, is: "Tell me about yourself!" and we're in the background, saying: "Don't do that!! Let the law-of-attraction- mutuality be what carries you!"
Don't look around for other things that you might be mutual about, because you might find all kinds of things that neither one of you want to have active in your vibration, that you're mutual about! Because you have all kinds of things within you, that you don't want to be active in your vibration right now. Helpful?
HS:
Yeah, that makes sense, too. Yeah! Yeah, yeah!
Abe:
So, what is life, really? What is it?
Life really is you, seeking alignment with who you really are.
You, seeking alignment with who you really are, you seeking alignment with who you really are, until you discover:
You know when you're satisfied. And when you're not, then moving out and let law of attraction bring to you things that are important to you.
HS:
Well, that's what brought up that predestination I was thinking about. Jerry, manifesting through his own questioning a lot of this, right here... (Abe: yes!) ...and was that like, his Inner Being, calling him into it? (Abe: No question!) ...This is where he's going to, and he just had to... (Abe: No question.) ...allow that to happen and go through his experiences, to get in line with that?
Abe:
Sometimes, when you really want to know something, your Inner Being calls you right through contrasting experiences, in order to inspire you to ask for the thing, that you most want. It's also good: Everything is always working out for you!
from the youtube- clip "Is Pre-Destiny Real | Abraham Hicks | LOA (Law of Attraction)"
(Reactivating resistance).
HS:
Is there some kind of a pre-destiny in following that inner guidance, that inner path?
Abe:
Only in this sense: It was decided, or known, as you were making the decision to come into this body, that
You're a creator.

And that expansion is necessary and delicious.

HS:
Yeah, that makes sense, too. Yeah! Yeah, yeah!
Abe:
So, what is life, really? What is it?
Life really is you, seeking alignment with who you really are.
You, seeking alignment with who you really are, you seeking alignment with who you really are, until you discover:
You know when you're satisfied. And when you're not, then moving out and let law of attraction bring to you things that are important to you.
HS:
Well, that's what brought up that predestination I was thinking about. Jerry, manifesting through his own questioning a lot of this, right here... (Abe: yes!) ...and was that like, his Inner Being, calling him into it? (Abe: No question!) ...This is where he's going to, and he just had to... (Abe: No question.) ...allow that to happen and go through his experiences, to get in line with that?
Abe:
Sometimes, when you really want to know something, your Inner Being calls you right through contrasting experiences, in order to inspire you to ask for the thing, that you most want. It's also good: Everything is always working out for you!

Re: Creativity and being a Creator
"I don't want to work for money. I just want to have it!"
Abe:
Relative to your... we're going to take four categories.
Relative to your body, what do you want?
HS:
Dynamic, radiant health, and...
Abe:
We feel that. We feel that clearly! No misalignment there. Relative to your home, what do you want?
HS:
Um, functional, paid for, a beautiful and, um, oh, yeah... I can feel myself all right...
Abe:
That's really a mess there. All right. Relative to your money, what do you want?
HS:
Um, to be in a place of pure choice. Where, um, I need to pay little attention to it. Where there's all right!
Abe:
That's messy, too. And relative to your work, what do you want?
HS (laughing gently) None at all!
Abe:
Well, there is hope for you! Not a lot, but some! (laughter) We're just playing with you, here. Now let's go back to the subject of dollars, which seem to be everywhere in there, and a a big source of the contradiction and vibration, that we feel from you. So- do you think that the things that you want will come primarily through the vortex of dollars? (HS: primarily.) And do you think that dollars will come primarily through the vortex called work? (HS: Work. Yes.)
You do- and there inlies your problem, because you have all of these things that you want, that you believe come through the vortex called dollars. And you believe that the dollars come through the vortex called work- and you don't want any work. And so, you've sort of got yourself in this place where you can't let it work for you! Because your desires are all sort of contradicting one another. So we want to begin by saying to you, first of all, that
all kinds of things that you want, can come easily to you!
In other words, the only thing of all those topics that are the major topics of your life, that was really lined up, was a subject of your physicalness. And the reason that that was lined up, is because money isn't hooked into that, you see? And money and work are not hooked into that! And so, as you think about anything that has to do with dollars, it sort of confuses the issue here for you! And that's why so often we say to our physical friends,
-Let's take dollars out of the equation, all together, and
-let's focus- just for a moment- on the fact, that Source knows what you are wanting, and is yielding it to you! And,
-that well-being can flow to you in lots of different ways. And one of those ways is dollars. But it's not the only way! In other words,
-There is abundance of clarity. And there is the abundance of stamina. And there is abundance of energy. And there is the abundance of fun, and there is the abundance of love.
There's all kinds of abundance that you are experiencing, that does not have anything to do with the abundance of dollars.
Dollars is just another avenue, or another subject through which abundance can flow.
Now we have a series of questions for you, and we think think- as we ask them, and you answer them, that things will begin to line up for you, just a little bit. So just relax and sort of enjoy this, if you can!
-Are there things that you enjoy spending your time, doing? (HS: yes!)
-Have you ever enjoyed anything that brought dollars? (HS: oh yes!)
-As a physically focused being, do you enjoy the experience of action? (HS: oh yes!)
-And as you offer action, can you imagine being paid for it? (HS: oh yes.)
-Does the idea of payed action mean the same thing to you, as work?
HS:
Ohhhh... [Laughter] Oh boy. Well, knowing that I have, uh, so much charge around the word "work", um, I'm thinking that it doesn't.
Abe:
Well, then we would leave the word "work" out. In other words, we would start saying:
"There are all kinds of things that I love doing. And I like the idea of doing things, that I love to do, and I like the idea of dollars flowing, in response to what I'm doing." And now you've sort of circumvented that vibration, that is your Bugaboo!
We visited with a woman one day, and she said "My mother is so unhappy. And I would would like to help her be happier, but I don't think that I can!" and we said, "oh you're in such an uncomfortable position, because you believe that your mother is unhappy. And it's hard for you to be happy, while she is unhappy- and you believe that she needs you, to help make her happy. But you don't believe you can make her happy- and so, you're sort of in this place where you can't line up your energy with anything!"
And we're feeling a similar thing with you, as you say: "There are all of these things that I want. I want a house that is paid for. I want experiences that dollars can flow through. I just don't want to do anything that would bring dollars to me!" and what we can feel from you is: "I don't expect dollars to flow without the work! And I don't want to do the work!" -and so we think that your sincere answer to these questions... we think that there are a lot of things you like to do. And we think that you accept that dollars can flow to you, in response to the things that you like to do. And so, we think that you have circumvented that vibrational... um, "obstacle" is too strong of word, but "contradiction", that was keeping you from it.
So, now as you asked your first question to us: "How am I doing?" -we say, we can feel that something just opened. And we can feel that those things that are lined up outside your door, are beginning to move toward you. And our encouragement to you is:
Don't shy away from action! Just don't call it "work"!
HS:
Okay! ...Great. Interesting! Because I do... um, things that bring me money, yes, and that I think I enjoy! So, I... uh...
Abe:
Very boldly you said to us, you don't want any work!
HS:
Well, yes. And I was joking a bit and I do know that, um... it would be my ultimate choice to not work. To just have! Yeah... well!
Abe:
So, there it is! See, there it is- and that will never work for you, because what you're saying with that, is something that is so defiant of... because, you see. What you've come forth into this environment: You came forth to be inspired, to desire, and then you intended to align with the desire, in order to allow the expression of it. In other words, that's what creating is!
Creating is identifying the pathway, through thought. And then coming into vibrational alignment with the thought- in order to allow the manifestation.
That's what deliberate Creation in this physical format is, you see! And so, we think that what you're saying to us is, what so many say: "Abraham, it's not been very much fun: Trying to make things happen without lining up energy. And so- it's been so much not fun trying to make things happen without lining up energy, that I've decided, I don't want to play the game anymore!"
And we say: Then play a different game!
Line up energy, and enjoy the deliciousness of the action that is inspired from that alignment!

Re: Creativity and being a Creator
Don't get limp! Don't get overboard with "chilling out"!
Instead, explore the delightful path of specifically and deliberately CREATING what you desire. And only soothe yourself in overwhelmed, tense times with the much less passionate "letting go and letting God"
HS:
I know that I've got huge amounts of great things stacked up around the door (Abe: yes!) and I've been working with the tapes for about 10 years and so I know that I'm not allowing all that I could, so I'm...
Abe:
Well, it helps to know that you never get it done. In other words, there'll always be more and more and more!
But we can feel- and it is... we're playing with you in the way, (...) what we've been talking here today: We talk about this all the time! About how your life experience causes you to ask. And that the Universe hears it, and lines it up for you. And sometimes our physical friends have this confusion- in fact, it came up a few times today, about
"Well, which is it? Abraham, am I the deliberate creator of my experience?
Or shall I just let go and let God?
Am I the creator of my experience or do I just pet my cat, and relax and allow?"
...And you heard us say to our friend just now, that everything is lined up. And that you're really wanting to work on letting it in! And while we want you, all of you, to focus more on reducing resistance- because, as you said so clearly, you have got enough lined up for 20 or 30 lifetimes, and so the work really is in finding the... finding more ways to be less resistant. Or more allowing, in order to let in what you are wanting. There is nothing more delicious than to be specifically focused upon specific things, that you are wanting, while you are letting it in! And we think that this is most what you're wanting to hear from us. And we'll be very clear about this, it will benefit all of you!
So for example. To say "I saw a new car, and I love the idea of it. And it costs a lot of money, but it feels good just to think about being in it. And whatever will be will be. And so, the universe knows I want the car, and I've wanted it for a long time. And now I'm just not going to think about it anymore! Because the universe has got that handled."
-That's one way of approaching it.
And if you were really feeling negative about the car, that's the way we would encourage you to approach it.
But we think that it is ever so much more Hands-On, and delicious deliberate creating, to think about the car, to pretend you're in the car, to talk about the color of the car, to smell the leather of the car, to pretend you're in the car, to imagine being in the car, to go test drive the car, to look at the car, to think about driving the car, to imagine having the car in your garage, even to making a place for the car! To telling other people about the car... in other words, we think that
...the more specifically involved you get energetically with the car, the more satisfying the unfolding of the car can can be!
Unless you have convinced yourself that you don't get what you want. And we can sort of feel that from you!
We can feel that from a lot of you! -Where you have sort of shied away from getting too specific, for very long, about the things that you want, because you get tired of wanting things that don't come. And so, you don't let yourself focus upon them very much. And the result of that is, you sort of feel limp.
Where what we really want you to do, is to get into this sort of cocky, arrogant attitude where you begin to believe that the universe will give you anything, and everything that you want, and see yourself as the Maestro that is directing the energy toward the specifics of things!
And you want to start with things that you already believe. That you can achieve, because, lining up that energy light will give you instant manifestations on some things. And then, every day, just add more to your list, and add more to your list, and add more to your list! we can feel that you understand very clearly the principles that we have been expressing, for a very long period of time. And we do not feel a big disconnect within you, about worthiness! In other words, we don't feel that you're deliberately holding yourself apart from things.
But we can feel not just with you, but with a lot of, a LOT of our physical friends, that you've stopped being very deliberate about things! Because you are feeling the discomfort. You're tired of feeling the discord of wanting things, that don't come easily. And so you decided, that you would sort of just take another tact in it. And you got really heavy on allowing, now. This is really a great deal of fun for us, because as we begin to interact with our physical friends, and we talk about the science of deliberate creation- many of you get very clear:
-You start thinking about what you want.
-You start setting goals, and you start sucking in the thoughts that don't match to what you're wanting.
-You worry about talking negatively!
-You're afraid that the universe will take off with you, on something that you don't want.
-And so, you get very... sort of, worried about directing your thoughts at all times.
And then, we notice that in your attempt to be deliberate creators, that you are not relaxed and allowing as much.
So, then we began emphasizing the "Art" of Allowing. We begin saying to you that- yes of course, it's important that you want things! And it's nice to set those goals. And it's nice to write it down what you are wanting.
But the universe already knows what you want!
The universe heard you the first 100,000 times, that you said that you wanted it!!
And it's already lined up for you now!
Your work is to relax and let in.
What you've been saying- you want... you've gone overboard, on relaxing and letting in!
In other words, in the same way that we began expressing the "Art" of Allowing, in order to calm people who were very analytic, who were focused very specifically on what they'r wanting- now we' sort of like to get you focused more upon your goals. And we think that now, this time when you do it, we think it will go very well for you!
-Because you've done enough relaxing.
-You've come into alignment with who you are!
-You're beginning to expect good things to come for you, you have evidence of that.
-You have knowledge of the law of attraction!
-You don't misunderstand the correlation between what you're thinking, and what you're feeling, and what you're getting.
-You're beginning to understand, that the Universe is always consistent.
And we think, that even though you have launched desires and the Universe knows what they are, that a little bit of attention to what you are wanting, would net you some big results right away.

Re: Creativity and being a Creator
Karma, or our Fascination in Creating?
HS:
What does Abraham think of Karma?
Abe:
It's misunderstood by most humans!
Law of Attraction says, "you get what you think about, whether you want it or not." But it's not something that you pass on, from Lifetime to Lifetime! When you reemerge into non-physical, you leave behind all doubt and fear. And your desires, that were developed and embellished and focused into being, while you were in this physical lifetime, are who you are! And it's from that vantage point, that you would make a decision to return!
There is none of being born again, to make up for something that you didn't get, right before. Zero.
And if that's what people mean by Karma, which sometimes it is what they mean, then it's not what we know to be.
But is there a Continuum in you, certainly! Do you have life experiences where you expand, and then you want other life experiences, where you have more opportunity to have more? -Of course you do!
Is there a vibrational thread that runs through all that you are? Absolutely! You are eternal! Your Source energy, coming into physical experience, wanting new experiences for new expansion, because creation is so delicious from your non-physical perspective- nothing is more delicious than to understand the laws of the universe be, in a physical environment, where there are tactile choices!
Know what you don't, want know what you do want. Make your choices. Focus on what you have chosen, and then watch Universal forces and laws bring into manifested beingness, what you've chosen. That's what a Creator is all about! Humans tell the story, that God created the Earth.
-Well, you still are doing it! You are still doing it: YOU are the Leading Edge of all of that!

Law of Attraction says, "you get what you think about, whether you want it or not." But it's not something that you pass on, from Lifetime to Lifetime! When you reemerge into non-physical, you leave behind all doubt and fear. And your desires, that were developed and embellished and focused into being, while you were in this physical lifetime, are who you are! And it's from that vantage point, that you would make a decision to return!
There is none of being born again, to make up for something that you didn't get, right before. Zero.
And if that's what people mean by Karma, which sometimes it is what they mean, then it's not what we know to be.
But is there a Continuum in you, certainly! Do you have life experiences where you expand, and then you want other life experiences, where you have more opportunity to have more? -Of course you do!
Is there a vibrational thread that runs through all that you are? Absolutely! You are eternal! Your Source energy, coming into physical experience, wanting new experiences for new expansion, because creation is so delicious from your non-physical perspective- nothing is more delicious than to understand the laws of the universe be, in a physical environment, where there are tactile choices!
Know what you don't, want know what you do want. Make your choices. Focus on what you have chosen, and then watch Universal forces and laws bring into manifested beingness, what you've chosen. That's what a Creator is all about! Humans tell the story, that God created the Earth.
-Well, you still are doing it! You are still doing it: YOU are the Leading Edge of all of that!
