Law of Attraction

The Law of Attraction simply says that you attract into your life whatever you think about. Your dominant thoughts will find a way to manifest.

But the Law of Attraction gives rise to some tough questions that don't seem to have good answers. I would say, however, that these problems aren't caused by the Law of Attraction itself but rather by the Law of Attraction as applied to objective reality.

Excerpt from this blog:

Why in the world would I add an excerpt like this to a recovery blog???

Because: the main problem with surrender with respect to a 12 step program is the same problem most Americans are agnostic... they kinda sorta believe in God, but it's so confusing that they just ignore it, bury it deep somewhere... cause it's kinda irrelevant to their every day life.

and...
the issue that most Protestant's have over what they always call: Obey God.


let's face it, as codependents we've got power issues, we're control freaks, either we Control OR... we take issue with Being Controlled.

I personally prefer the eastern, new age approach, rather than have issues over weather or not we're Obeying... look at it like this:

Why would you WANT to swim upstream?
Why would you WANT to ride the horse in the opposite direction that he's going?

Doing what is best for everybody just seems natural, once you've gotten your head screwed on straight!

more coming, I'll make sense of this soon- tie it in with the rest of the blog's ideas...
