while, you just get tired of feeling bad. That is true regarding the conversation
that we had with you about your father, and it certainly is true about how Esther
felt when Jerry made his transition into Non-Physical. And we don’t think the
stakes should have to be that high. We don’t think you should have to let so
much bad-feeling momentum mount before you recognize that you could have it
another way.
So sometimes it’s like to be in a state almost of gratitude for the
hardships?
Staying in a state of appreciation would take care of everything because
appreciation is the way the Source within you feels all the time, about
everything. So it would be constant, continual, chronic alignment.
And it was because of those moments of despair, when I began to be
grateful instead of feeling sorry for myself, that I became a much more
compassionate person. And my writing took on a whole new flavor. In fact,
it was when I wrote The Power of Intention —which probably 50 percent of
it was impacted by your teachings, by the Teachings of Abraham; it’s all
over that book—that I was very deep into not allowing myself to continue
down the path of despair.
And when people are in relationships, or in places or in jobs or whatever
it is that nothing but despair is showing up, they feel the risk about
changing, getting out of it, moving along—
But once you understand the correlation between how you are feeling and the
thoughts that you are thinking, which are the reason you feel the way you do,
then you can change the way you feel by changing the thoughts you are thinking.
And then events change, too. Then you are off and running. It is just a matter of
practicing your thoughts on purpose. Think and feel. Think and feel.
It’s almost as if different people start showing up in your life, different
circumstances. Carl Jung called it synchronicity.
It depends on what vibrational disc you are on. If you’re on the ornery disc,
ornery people show up. If you’re on the high-flying disc, high-flying people
show up. If you’re on the feel-sorry-for-me disc, feels-sorry-for-me-disc people
show up. Law of Attraction never gets it wrong.
