[tranquility]

But felt it should go here too................

I always like to share the positive and not just the struggles. When I joined this site just a mere week ago I think, I was getting very deep into depression which had not happened for many years. I felt I was driven to this site but didn't know why.

Rick joined this group and introduced himself as a hypnotherapist. We have had many good chats and he told me about a movie called The Secret and said I really needed to watch it. So I ordered it on Amazon but had not received it yet.

Today, everything came together. I have a home group AA meeting and last Saturday I had a bit of a melt down and burst into tears. I had such an outpouring of affection that I just cannot describe.

Towards the end of the meeting, one of the group members came over and sat next to me to hug me. He woke up that morning and didn't plan on coming to the meeting but felt driven to do so. After hearing me share, he felt he there for me, not himself. He said that he always admired me and the things that I say and he was glad he could be there to help me. I was so flattered by the compliment and really was so surprised by it!

He was at the meeting today and I ran over to give him a big hug and thank him for his support the week before. He says he has a present for me and pulls it out of his pocket. What is it? The Secret!!!! I was stunned - I asked if it was really the movie and he said yes, that someone else I knew in the meeting had given it to him and that he and his wife liked it so much they had made copies. He thought of me after the last meeting and made me a copy - even with my name on the CD

I came home to watch the movie and what is it about? How you have the Power of Attraction and that if you ask for things, and act as if you have them and will receive them, it will happen. That if you think the negative it will attract more negative and if you think the positive it will attract more positive. It said so much more than that, it was an inspriring movie and made me feel so connected to the universe when watching it.

It can't be a coincidence that all of this came together in this way. Here was a perfect example of how I wanted to be better spiritually, be connected to the world and it all comes in to my life even with a movie that represents it!

My energy source is certainly involved in my life and I feel so blessed today to have been given this lesson. I wish all of you the love and light of the universe today.

While I prefer to utilize this through the power of God, quantum physics is proving this... included in the "observer effect?" What you expect (to see) is what you will see, and it will be real.

I also don't believe in coincidences. I do find that it is easy too limit the experience... and that it's important to not be short-sighted when synergistic things occur.

I was going to post this seperately, but I think it relates a little to what you're expressing tranq.
I read this in church today "Not only that, but we even boast of our afflictions, knowing that affliction produces endurance, and endurance proven character, and proven character, hope..and hope does not disappoint."
Thanks for the tip about that movie, I will get it.
Another of my favorites is "What the Bleep Do We Know?"
All these ideas share the same theme: there is no one, static real world, we create our own reality for ourselves.
