This little game taught me so much!

I had somehow always known that we as people must be more powerful than we are, the universe is so unlimited.
I had always thought how great it would be if I could blink my eyes or wiggle my nose as Samantha and Jeannie did in Bewitched and I Dream of Jeannie. So, when learning about Law of Attraction I was soooo happy, yes, I knew it, I knew we are all more powerful than we know.

I was so excited about Law of Attraction, I wanted to test it out for myself. This was the very first thing I did when I learned about Law of Attraction. I thought I would play a game with the Universe. I thought about what I could ask the Universe to show me to prove that I have the power.  Kind of silly, but fun. Well, actually not so much fun at first, I’ll tell you why.

I thought about what I could ask for that I didn’t think I had any resistance around. Something that I felt would be an easy test because I believed it could happen. Something that didn’t seem so out of reach. Being that I have had bird feeders and have been bird watching for years I thought this would be a good test

I told the Universe that I wanted to see Blue Jays and Cardinals.  Easy enough right?

Not so easy. I wanted to see those birds so badly to prove I had the power to do it.  I was looking everywhere trying to spot one of the birds.  I kept looking, looking, looking and not seeing. Well, that was a major lesson. In looking so hard for those birds I only noticed that I was not seeing the birds. The harder I looked the longer it took. You see all I was focusing on was that I wasn’t seeing the birds.  So, the Universe gave me more of what I was focused on, no birds.

When I realized that I only needed to think of seeing the birds.  Feeling the excitement of actually seeing the birds, even thought I had not seen them yet.  I started playing the movie in my mind of actually seeing the birds and how excited I would be that the Universe gave me what I asked for.  The first bird I spotted was the Blue Jay, that was great, I was really excited.  But the Cardinal had not shown himself to me yet.  I found myself looking hard for them again. I had to remind myself not to look so hard and not to pay attention to not seeing him.

One night as I slept I dreamt that I saw a Cardinal. He was on the ground behind a bush. There he was bright red and looking beautiful. This was just in my dream, but it felt so real.  I remember feeling such an overwhelming feeling of joy.  Just from seeing this bird in my dream. It was only days after that that I spotted one for real.  Wow, that little game of spotting those birds gave me so much joy.  Real joy from such a simple thing that many people take for granted everyday as they see Blue Jays and Cardinals flying around.

To me it was a huge accomplishment and a gift from the Universe. Now, I see Blue Jays and Cardinals a lot.  But my connection to the Cardinal is really strong.  Now the Cardinal sightings are directly linked to my higher vibration.  If my vibration lowers and I’m not feeling as great as usual, I don’t spot my favorite bird.  When I am vibing high, I see them everywhere.  Always a great indicator from the Universe as to what might be manifesting for me next.

So, try it, find something to use as your game to play with the Universe and see what happens.  Remember don’t focus on the lack of what you are wanting to manifest. Just keep your focus and imagination on exactly what you want and how you want to feel when it arrives. I’m sure you will enjoy the game.

Wow, I have to add to this post, the Universe was still playing.

Earlier today I wrote this post you’re reading now. Playing a game with the Universe, choosing to see my favorite birds.  Well, I had forgotten that I also, just a few weeks ago, asked the Universe to bring some Eastern Bluebirds to my backyard. They are the NY State Bird. I live in New York for three years now. I have bird feeders out in my backyard and watch the birds often. I have not seen one of these birds since moving here. I had to rush out to go somewhere and could not post this to my site before leaving.

Then as I was heading for the back door, I see right out the back windows, there were two Eastern Bluebirds sitting on the line for my dog run. Right there in plain site, shinning brightly in the sun as if to say Hello!  The blue color was amazing. I was feeling such joy. Just from something so simple and carefree.  A couple of birds sitting on a line.  That joy came from the Universe letting me know that it is there for me, always answering my desires.  And all I have to do is keep my thoughts positive and things will show up in my reality, not just in my mind.

Funny how I didn’t get to post this earlier. Seems the Universe sent me a distraction so that I would be able to add to this post. Pretty amazing when you think about it. So, now I’ve asked the Universe to send some Hummingbirds to my yard. I have not seen any since the first summer I moved here.  I’ll let you know when those guys show up.

I’ve been playing little games like this for a while.  It really keeps me learning and understand Law of Attraction more and more.  I would love it if you would send me a comment on how the game went for you. Maybe you have done this before and would like to share your story. Or even if what you are asking for has not shown up yet. Post a comment and I’ll send you a tip on how to help it along it’s way.

Have fun playing with the Universe, Enjoy!
