Might be helpful to look at those books and such. Abraham say that the negative feelings are really helpful because they show you you are not on the way to attract that which you really want. You have a thought that is on the other end of the scale from that which you want. You can always fork off into another direction and choose good feeling thoughts. It isn't about blaming the victims, but I really have to admit that I find the thought that I am the only force in my universe an extremely calming and positive one. No one can attract or choose for me. I am the only one. That is a great thought and one I deeply appreciate and love. Nevertheless: Thanks for the great blogs. :) Hm, it seems that there is a slight misunderstanding: Law of Attraction doesn’t outlaw negative feelings – at least not the version of Abraham and Esther and Jerry Hicks.

Not that everything is a "victim" thing, but sometimes things just happen. I do think there may be many different reasons these things happen, and not just to make us stronger or to propel us toward our goals. I think there are a lot of forces at work in the universe, and we simply can't control everything. So I do believe it's good to make the best of the bad, even transmute it (or at times), although for me personally I feel I've weathered the worst, at least for a long time. I'm ready for more positive things in my life, and have seen them start to manifest. What sets me back (and what recently set me back) is often not listening to Spirit (the "quiet voice" within, gut feeling, or whatever you may call it). Thanks for this, Morgana!

Life happens. What is it that we are being told? What can we learn? We listen and pay attention to what is going on. Sometimes it comes back louder. I so agree with you. Life happens.
