    Angel Numbers

    All of my life, I’ve been one to think about and analyze things.  I am deeply philosophical by nature.  I plan things and I have been skeptical of the mystery surrounding the metaphysical world.  I have, in the past, been one who needed to see to believe. I don’t know when this changed or even how.  One of my mantras now is “believing is seeing”.  Even so, when I first heard about the book Angel Numbers by Doreen Virtue and Lynnette Brown, I again was skeptical that the numbers I was seeing as I went through my daily life held any meaning.  I could get on board with basic numerology…

    If We Are Patient

    I’ve waited for things before but guess I never thought about how the Law of Attraction works with it.  My family recently decided to undertake a small construction project to repair a shed and do some work in the garage.  I belong to the local FreeCycle group and posted a request for the items I would need.  I’ve used the list before, but mostly I list things I’m giving rather than things I’m needing.  Lots of folks are looking for construction materials so I wasn’t sure anything would materialize.  Imagine my excitement when I received an email that someone had some things and also had a dumpster sitting at their…
