I just want to share my little manifestation experience and how the Universe showed me the importance of surrender and non-attachment.
For the past two weekends, I have been taking long walks in different forests looking for fallen pine branches. Fortunately, I live in an area where there's a lot of forests, mountains, and different kinds of pine trees.
I never buy a Christmas tree - I don't want to be a part of killing trees, but I like to have a few branches over the Christmas season to get in the spirit. So I didn't find any branches and gave up and decided to just buy a little plant in a pot that looks like a little Christmas tree. Very cute, by the way. So I did that on Monday, and yesterday I was walking my shelter dog - also in nature - and there was a huge cut Christmas tree right in the middle of our path, blocking it. I was amazed - sorry for the tree of course, but I could take as many branches as I wanted!
I think you get the idea - right after I made my peace with not finding the branches, I got the whole huge tree!
Amazing how it works.
I'm trying to give up my desire to find $150k (I need exactly that amount of money to pay for my citizenship and will take out a loan next year in February). But what if this money can come from different areas without taking a loan? How great would that be!
Like the branches of a Christmas tree.
