What blooms from beautiful seeds of thought becomes a symphony of colorful abundance. ― Jazz Feylynn
Suddenly, I saw out of the corner of my eye a car roll up to our house. I wasn't expecting anyone, and it wasn't the usual UPS or mail truck. It was a lady I did not know, getting something out of the trunk of her car. I had to head upstairs to do a couple of chores. When I came down, I was shocked and delighted by what she had delivered to our home. On my 100-day journey of exploring abundance, this was a welcome surprise!
It was a beautiful flower arrangement with evergreens, pinecones, red roses, and more! The bouquet was all tied up with a festive gold ribbon and planted in a beautiful vase. I was in awe! My sister in law had sent me this lovely gift in honor of the holidays.
As I placed it on our table, I still felt little shocks of joy come over me. When I gaze upon it today, I still cannot believe it. It is as though the seeds of my thoughts and dreams were now a reality.
The past few weeks, I have had the best time looking at photos of beautiful flowers. I love to collect these pictures and look at them often. I imagine them in my home. I believe this is one of the reasons that this bouquet came to me.
Much to my delight, I am so much more allowing than I used to be. I never used to make miracle lists or dream boards. In the past, I only thought I had to keep working hard and toiling away for my dreams to become a reality. Now I know there is so much more to it than that.
Part of me has always known that the more fun that you have with dreaming, the more will come to you in the form of beauty, surprises, connections, and opportunities.
One of the things I am very good at is winning prizes. At every event, when there are raffle prizes to be won, I win at least one of them. I go into the building talking about how fun it is to win gifts, and then I have the best time looking at all of the prizes.
The key to helping dreams come into your life experience is to have fun. Follow your bliss by allowing yourself to dream. Collect photos, watch videos, imagine your travels to other places. It is all in the allowing.
My prayer and my intention for you is that you allow your dreams to come true. Plant those daily seeds by having fun with whatever you are imagining. You never know when it will just show up on your doorstep!
