On Hope and Manifesting your Desires

By Lori Lines

Hope is the cherished desire of some kind of obtainment and, to me, implies just this. Desire. The more we "desire" we are in the space of "wanting" which tells the Universe we do not have what we "want." We step out of the space of co-creating WITH our Creator into a space of victimhood and waiting for that thing or circumstance to change - our minds looking out at something into the future, missing the NOW opportunities that lie before us at any given moment. Therefore, it keeps what we want in a suspended animation. It keeps us stuck in the abyss of WANT where we see nothing changing for or with us in our physical realm.

If we are able to think about what we want, then it is already done. The key is to break down the barriers, within us, to achieving that which we desire. If we connect to the present moment, within ourselves, break down the barriers, within, by releasing the fears and illusions we've created to obtaining what we want, rather than projecting those fears and illusions into the future with "hope," the Universe will conspire to make it happen.

Projection into the future only creates the barrier and, since everything is energy, that invisible barrier keeps what we want from manifesting into our present moment. In other words, think it within your own head, let it go, and then turn your attention inward to recognize the fears, the illusions, the negative thought patterns, the self-sabotaging behaviors and break them down. Then open your eyes to see all you've attracted. And, by all means, give gratitude for what you already have created every day.

​Peace, Lori
