What
does it mean to be truly abundant? Are
we all looking for the pot at the end of
the rainbow? And well, what's in that
pot? And for that matter, where is this
rainbow? Is it truly money we want and
need or are other forms of abundance
important too? If money were no object
what would you do? How would you choose
to be in the world? These are all
questions that can actually give us a
greater understanding not only about our
abundance, but about ourselves.
It is
true that abundance comes to us in so
many ways and it is important to be able
to see the abundance already all around
us. For if you do not have the eyes to
see the abundance of this world, it will
be very difficult to get and stay in the
flow. It is important to understand the
process of flow. It is why we say, "Let
the circle be unbroken." For if we are
aware of the flow and the power of the
circle and how resources and money
actually do circulate among us, then we
understand how damaging it is to break
the circle. The reality is that we do
not have to pray for money or abundance
of anything. Everything here that is
necessary for us to grow and thrive is
already energy in motion. Our role is to
CHOOSE what we would like to co-create
or manifest in our lives.
This
can be a difficult notion for some of us
to wrap our heads around, especially
when we have been so unaware of the
power of our own being and have spent a
lifetime controlling and forcing our
lives, or being controlled and
manipulated by others. The jig is up,
however, and more and more of us are
coming out of the cocoon and growing up
and into our creative abilities and our
power of choice. Some of us are seeing
and proving to ourselves that
manifestation is a result.... of the
Holy Trinity of our thoughts and
feelings, which create our beliefs as we
take them to our heart... and then
become our life... and manifest and
outpicture into the world for all to see
and share.
The
truth is that there is all abundance,
all possibility, all the time, and the
only thing that is blocking everything
from manifesting at once is our power of
choice. Have you ever been to a concert
or a busy shopping mall and been
overwhelmed by all the choices and the
energy of the people and the place? This
is a hint at what is pressing upon us
all the time. Knowing this, do you see
how important limitation and lack could
be to the process of discovery of your
own desires and preferences? It could be
said that lean periods are times in our
lives when we are sharpening or
developing knowledge of what we will
choose... a kind of lesson that
creativity involves a letting go of what
we do not want in order to lower the
"noise" on the rest of it, so that we
can bring forth into high relief what it
is that we choose.
One
of our main skills in life is to develop
the eyes to see, to get into the stream
of what we do want, especially
after we have found out what that is. Of
course we want the intangibles such as
peace, joy, creativity, belonging and
love to be the baseline for our
creations. But we do live in a
manifested world. And so by and large
what we take into our hearts, what we
believe is what will be the result of
how we experience our life and what is
created into existence. This is great
news after the initial shock when we
find out we are responsible for our own
experience of life... for this means
that we have the power to make a
different choice and create something
else.
This
brings us full circle to one of our
opening questions that can help us
determine and discern what is in our
hearts. The door where there was once
only a window may not become visible
until we at least have a preliminary
answer to these questions. For the
answer is what causes the door to
appear. Ultimately, even after we have
seen the door, we must continue to
exercise our own free will and power of
choice to walk through it and engage in
our life with intent. If money
were no object what would you do? How
would you choose to be in the world? To
answer these questions, to even get
started on an answer has the power to
bring us into abundance being.

Abundant Being Affirmations
I see the abundant nature of this creation.
I get into the stream of abundance by focusing on my desires and preferences.
I focus on what I want to create and experience in my life, not what I don’t want.
It is my focus and my intent which creates my life.
I journal, divine, pray, meditate and relate for self-discovery.
I seek to know myself so that to my own self I may be true.
When I understand my own nature, I can work joyously with others.
I find my place in this world.
I belong to the world.
The world is waiting for me to share my gifts.
Right now, a golden opportunity is hidden in plain view.
I become the tracker to see the abundance of my life.
I see with the eyes of love and re-interpret all the events of my life through the eyes of love.
I declare my intent and see the means to begin immediately.
If I want more love, I give more love.
If I want more friends, I first extend my friendship.
If I want more money, I invest in myself.
If I want more abundance on all levels, I tithe to the All.
As I am kind and loving toward myself, I put this energy in my field and radiate it to others.
Even as manifestation is a natural result of my intent, I understand that I may be asked to perform an act of power to give birth to my dreams.
The universe is conspiring on my behalf.
I am a creator God in the making, awakening to Abundant Being.
