Feeling gratitude means you’re letting in the good stuff that you desire.

Appreciate Something

By Abraham-Hicks: “All day long, every day, you are launching vibrational desires. And Universal Forces are receiving that and answering that. And Law of Attraction is managing all of that. You are being answered, steadily.

As Jerry and Esther drove across the Golden Gate Bridge, the city was so beautiful. The sun was beginning to set, and the light was shining on the buildings in the city, and there was a fog muting everything; and the combination of the grays of the background of the city with the lights in the windows, that the sun was reflecting, and the pink in the sky… Esther nearly stopped the car on the bridge to savor it. She said, “Have you ever seen anything so beautiful?” She said, “I’m going to remember this always, always, always.”

In that moment, as she found something to appreciate, she was in the utter state of allowing, so that every desire that she had ever uttered, vibrationally or verbally, was being allowed fully, in this moment. She did not have to think about the building projects. She did not have to think about the computer projects. She did not have to think about the CD projects. She did not have to think about the book projects. She did not have to think about the water garden project. She did not have to think about the new grandbaby on the way. She did not have to specifically think about any of these things that she wants to be perfect in every way. All she had to do was admire the beauty of a moment and hold herself not in resistance to what she’s been asking for.

You do not have to hammer anything into place. Universal Forces know how to make it happen. Universal Forces know how and where and who — and when. All you have to do is not be in the place of disallowance. All you have to do is not be in the place of doing that thing you do that doesn’t allow yourself to receive all that you’ve been asking for.

With each moment of bliss, more of that which you’ve identified as your desire flows to you, until another moment of bliss comes and another, and another, and it seems as if the entire Universe revolves around you — and it does.

So, a very short seminar would serve you, if you could hear it. And it would go something like this: Find something to be happy about. Goodbye!”
