Dear Bob

I know that this quote has been used a lot on this forum, but it speaks to my soul. This quote is my dream/ my calling...

“Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness that most frightens us. We ask ourselves, Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, fabulous? Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of God. Your playing small does not serve the world. There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won't feel insecure around you. We are all meant to shine, as children do. We were born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us. It's not just in some of us; it's in everyone. And as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others.”

- by Marianne Williamson, from A Return To Love: Reflections on the Principles of A Course in Miracles

I have in the past few months had an "inner urging or stirring" (perhaps a crazy dream?) to play larger in life...to touch the lives of people on a grander scale...

The past few months I have also had a feeling that I am destined to do extraordinary things... For the last week I wanted to start a discussion titled : "Do you have a purpose in life/ What is your purpose in life?

Coincidence?

I know that with the LOA there is not really a thing like DESTINY, but I have a feeling, deep down from the core of my being, that I am supposed to do something BIG... That I am supposed to make some kind of major contribution to this world. Sounds crazy right?! lol

I also have no idea what that contribution will be, but I believe that it will come to me...

So yes, I have a dream or maybe more like a calling.

There is a book out called "The Magic of Thinking Big"by David Schwartz,that says"Think and dream creatively. Believe that it can be done and then the mind finds a way to get it done. Be open to new ideas and be progressive. Stimulate yourself with diverse ideas from diverse people. Capacity is a state of mind.

You are what you think. "The price tag you put on yourself, is probably the same price tag that the world will put on you."

I have many dreams. It's about how and where am going to live my life. I live very small country in Europe. Estonia, Tallinn. Maybe someone is heard of this country. In here is quite cold clime. Summer is warm but when autumn comes is windy and bad weather, no sun. In winter comes snow and sleet. First snow is great but it stay too long. So i want to go place where summer is year-round. Sun shine, ocean, palms around me etc. Cause when it's bad weather is depression easy to come. But i need money for this. I really want to win lottery. I have tried 2 weeks, but nothing. I have visualize this lifestyle and me on the beach. I 'm only 16 years old but i need it, i want and i get it. When the time is right. And then i want by ex boyfriend back. Really. We broke up 3 months ago. I miss him. We were like 2 years together. This is very long time at this age. My coevals is usually 2-6 months together with one person. I love him very much. I lost him cause this summer we were far away each other and i was scared to lose him. Over and over again i was thinking to lose him. And it happened. There was no reason. He just left me. Now i know why. But it's time to get him back. Right. Anyway my dream is go travel with my boyfriend a beautiful place like Mexico and USA. And be happy, free and feel the love.

I just can't wait. I want to make it happened very fast :)

“Excellence can be obtained if you:

...care more than others think is wise;

...risk more than others think is safe;

...dream more than others think is practical;

...expect more than others think is possible.”

“To dream anything that you want to dream. That's the beauty of the human mind. To do anything that you want to do. That is the strength of the human will. To trust yourself to test your limits. That is the courage to succeed.”

(sounds like something I would say.. lol)

I don't need or pine for big homes, because my dream is to only have the security of two small homes, and to use them as "bases" for traveling.

Ya' know those food and travel channel shows, where they compare BBQ's from different parts of the country, or they travel to Tuscany and find some abscure olive oil factory, or they visit the Jamaican coffee factory, or they go to the Chili cookoff in Wyoming....

I dream of being so wealthy that I can do all of this stuff, experience people and cultures, and subcultures, any time. I want to be wealthy enough to take whomever I want, whenever I want.... I want to be able to stop in Vegas and laugh about dropping a thousand bucks the night before I drive down to Cabo San Lucas and hang out at the pool with people I care about.

I want to enter the World Poker Tournament just to say I did it.... I want to eat Peking Duck, in Peking; eat Kobe Beef, in Kobe; do a wine tasting in some back country winery in France; I want to be on some South Pacific Island where no one lives; ....

lol ya' know... TRAVEL.

My Dream?

To have the peace and knowledge I won't have to worry about anything ever again. All my needs are supplied and my wants are satisfied.

CRAZY? To some, because some believe we can never be satisfied. I believe we can.

My dream is to be financially free. To sell 1,000 combo packs of our books and to pay off the business loan in full. My dream is to move closer to my family and for my husband and I to have jobs we love and are able to make to amount we are worth. My dream is to be able to provide for my teenagers the things that they want without even having to think about it. My dream is to have enough money to relax and enjoy life, to be able to go on our honeymoon we weren't able to take 20 years ago. To send my kids to college and not worry about student loans. That is my dream.

Mine is to establish an inspired media that always covers that which is uplifting, positive, supports and caretakes the earth and heartfelt projects & community groups creating a difference... so i've started one step at a time... knowing that one little ripple can affect the whole... www.lovecreateinspire.com :) Maybe it will eventually become a newspaper or on tv or a magazine... but mostly there is SO MUCH awesome stuff in the world to be shared that could fill every days news...

Much Love,
Sandy

Traveling and exploring every nook and cranny of the U.S. and Canada in a natural gas powered "laid out" R.V.!!!...and capturing the chronicles of the adventure via video camera!...

And to expand the adventure to Europe and Australia!

My dream is to also return to Hawaii...and to have that Amazing Place be my "home between travel adventures"...

Ahhhhhhhhhhhh...That feels so Incredibly Good!!!

This is a timely post. I have been getting the message to dream bigger. So, my response was to go with my gut.
I really enjoy helping people. I love it. I enjoy sharing, talking, writing, teaching, sharing in many different ways and through several mediums.

Out of this delight I offer this energy to everyone. That's right everyone. Sometimes we get so caught up in making money and getting rich, that we deny ourselves the absolute joy of helping for the sake of helping.

Don't get me wrong, I enjoy energy exchanges, it's just not always the energy medium that is right for this exact exchange.
Sometimes we do things just for the love of doing it. For the joy, the bliss of sharing, helping and lifting others up.

Believing that you have something powerful and life changing to share with others is a key to success. We all are blessed, share from that place. I realized the other day that if we all realized that we were always in the middle of prosperity, abundance, love, joy.. and started consciously sharing from that place.. we would quickly change our own lives and make a huge dent in changing the world.

During this present climate.. let's all focus on this energy.. and share from here.

Love yourself well,
Donna
