Gratitude and Service

The goal is to win, but for what? If our dreams are all self centered, and don't include anyone else, then what incentive does the universe have for sharing her abundance? To create more selfish people in the world? I think one of the missing pieces of the puzzle is to be thankful, and also to do some good with the spoils. Imagine winning enough to be incentived to creating something that helps relieve suffering. Imagine going to a place of misery and creating smiles, or better yet, clean water to drink. The goal has to include benefit to the source. The universe is not stupid, and doesn't share her wealth with just anyone. We have to create a plan of sharing, we have to already be thankful for what is to come.

Determination and Persistence

We are really keyed in on the target. Mickael does not shut up about it. We wake up each day and visualize before he goes to school. He is learning about things that I did not even hear about until my 30's. We watched the movie, "The Secret" last week and decided that we are going to watch it again and again, digging out those nuggets and putting them in a little book for reference. We talk about the different aspects of this and how we can make it happen. I am as excited about the prospect of manifesting something with the power of our minds as I am about the money itself. I am excited to be showing my son something of faith and of determination.

Two Rainbows - adorning the sky

Last Friday I heard a man on the radio say that someone had sent him a couple of pictures of rainbows. My Grandmother LOVED rainbows and considered them omens. She told a story of one time after a rainstorm, when she was low and depressed, of asking God, "If you hear my prayer, then show me a sign, let me see a rainbow." She did not see a rainbow and later told herself she was silly for even asking God for such a thing. My mother called her an hour or so later and said, "Mother, did you see the rainbow today? It was beautiful!"
Last Friday, after hearing the guy on the radio, I told myself that I would LOVE to see a rainbow since she had such a connection. I was talking to my mom on the phone and hung up to go inside the bank. As I exited the car, I looked up in the sky and saw the tail end of a rainbow, blocked by a building. As I walked along the sidewalk, I saw that it was complete, but something stranger, I saw that in the distance there was another rainbow, not attached as a double, but seperate as two. After leaving the bank, I called my wife to tell her and as I stopped at a redlight, I saw on the license tag in front of me, it spelled out "adorning"
What does this have to do with winning the lottery? I consider it an omen, that we are on the right path. And that my grandmother is with us...
