hello Charles,
there is also a much more mundane and practical method for getting what one
wants... it involves careful consideration about all of the details
regarding that which you are trying to attain... and then giving careful
thought to what are the various ways to attain it... you then analyze the
various possibilities for the route towards that goal which makes the best
sense for you... you then focus your energy one doing what it takes to
follow your plan, even if it means starting out by sticking with doing some
boring work that lays the groundwork for getting what you want...
this worked well for me when a chronic illness made my life fall part... i
lost my career, was denied my disability benefits, be pleaded my savings and
borrowed against my pension, had my fiance breakup with me, was in
excruciating pain, and saw most of my "so-called" friends gradually
disappear... after seeking counseling to help mourn the death of my previous
life, i finally decided that i didn't want to spend my life alone, and the
first priority of my new life was to find a new lover and life companion...
since i couldn't go out places to meet people, and it was before i got on
the internet, i started studying the personal ads in my local papers very
carefully... then i thought about what i was looking for in a woman and how
to describe it, and also considered how to describe myself honestly, but in
the best light... i got 20 responses my ad, and after meeting three of the
best possibilities, there ended up being two women who i liked very much
that wanted to go out with me... i chose carefully between the two, and have
just celebrated my ninth anniversary of being married to the woman i
chose... i also had similar success in carefully pursuing my career goals in
a similar manner...
while this method does seem to be very practical method for attaining what
one desires, there are other things to consider... perhaps Mystress's
comments about " wanting creates wanting" deals with desire on a deeper
level... for example, just because i did find a woman that loved me very
much, and who i wanted to marry, this did not keep me from wanting other
things that my marriage was not providing for me... and even though i
attained some of my major goals for my career, in many ways i found that it
was not what i was really looking for... and also, my career was cut short
just as i was becoming very successful by an unexpected illness...
so in this way, both approaches makes sense in their own way... although,i
have brought more happiness into my life by learning to surrender to
God-dess's will (thank you, Mystress Angelique), than i have from using my
own will power to attain the things that i thought i wanted...
good luck, Charles... choose well, and learned to find happiness in what
life brings your way...
warmly,
percyval
