In all of the books I’ve read on the law of attraction there is the same idea that ‘your life is what you consciously create.’
And it’s been a really hard thing for me to wrap my brain around. What about all of the people in poverty? Or all of the wars, starvation, sexual abuse, sex trafficking, etc. Did those people consciously create that?
“I’m not good enough”—it’s the root of all our toxic thoughts.
I started reading “You can heal your life” by Louise Hay the other day, though I’ve had it for almost 8 months. I guess I wasn’t ready to read it. The idea is that our thoughts create our reality, including disease in the body, with resentment, criticism, and guilt causing the most damage.

My friend has a post that you can read with 11 edible flowers to make yourself feel like magic). Anyway, after our trip to Arkansas, we came home and discovered the lilac bush is in bloom! Yay! AND […]
In an unlikely paradox, our neighbor hayed our field during national pollinator week. I don’t know if I was the only one conflicted or not, but I totally was. Our fields are full of clover, wildflowers, and healthy grasses, so it’s no surprise that every year he comes to hay. We get a good chunk […]
