A few days ago, I was leaving  a workshop I had just given on the power of thought to create what you want and what you don’t want. A friend was carrying a big vase of flowers to my car. I was thinking about where to put them and concerned about the water spilling. Then, I thought “I think it would be a good idea to pour out the water first.”

Just at that moment, my friend stumbled and the water and flowers dumped out onto the parking lot. Problem solved!  He was horrified and so apologetic. I said, “Don’t be. I was just thinking that it would be best to dump out the water.” We scooped up the unharmed flowers and put them back in the vase for the short ride home. I think the universe was showing me just how quickly our thoughts can manifest.
