How many times do you think you might have talked yourself right out of something you wished to create with, "Yes, but ...?" It happens all the time. Even to some who are experienced in using universal energy to create their desires.

Perhaps you have decided that you will bring about a transformation in some area of your life. You may use any - or all - of the creative techniques you ever heard about. Your desire is deep.

Seems to me I've spent quite a lot of time "on the edge" this year. So, I might as well see 2004 out the same way. Yeah, I always was an adventurous sort. (Grin)

In October, I got my knuckles rapped for having the audacity to publish a political statement. I didn't bother to fight that one, but, rather, just sighed. And gee, I never even got started. I *could* have said the last time people listened to a bush, they got to spend 40 years in the desert. But, I guess "Freedom of Speech" applies to everyone but me.

How strange that we relate being in love with "falling." Or that it's often thought of as "losing our hearts." Yikes! Who needs that?

Entering into a relationship in an effort to fulfill something we think we don't have is self-defeating. Believing that another person will make us
complete is doomed to failure. We must work through our own issues and come to a place of being a whole, emotionally healthy person within ourselves. Only then will we attract other whole, emotionally healthy people.

You've probably heard that your words and thoughts create the situations of your life. Not true.

Words are nothing more than the vehicle of energy. They carry energy out into the universe to find like energies. The only creative power of words is in the feeling behind the words.

Words spoken without feeling have no power whatsoever to create anything. Words spoken from fear - or from joy and expectation - carry all power to create the spoken situation.

People often limit themselves when using creative techniques. We sometimes tend to have linear thinking when we need to "spread out."

We limit what the universe can bring us when we are too specific. We also bring about limitation by deciding what can be appropriate for us.
Sometimes we limit our possibilities by clinging to old ideas and beliefs.
