Do we sometimes fret when events beyond our control that are not to our liking happen to us? Most of us do. We start asking “why me?” or “poor me”. This may be hard for some to accept, but the fact is we actually brought it to our lives. Somewhere along the line we have made decisions and taken certain course of actions that has resulted in those events happening to us. The reverse is also true for all the good things that have happened in your life. Just think of all the good things in your life. Have we not at one point in time made decisions and taken actions that paved the way for such positive events to happen to us? I’m sure we did do something. If you understand how the law of attraction works, even a thought can bring in these events.
However I would like to state here that whether an event is good or bad is really our perception of it. How do we know if something is good or bad? The event is neutral. It is our belief system that results in us labelling the event as either good or bad.
There is an old Chinese folktale about a farmer who lived at the northern frontier. This farmer had only one horse, and one day the horse ran away. The neighbours came to condole over his terrible loss. The farmer said, "What makes you think it is so terrible?"
A month later, the horse came home--this time bringing with her two beautiful wild horses. The neighbours became excited at the farmer's good fortune. Such lovely strong horses! The farmer said, "What makes you think this is good fortune?"
The farmer's son was thrown from one of the wild horses and broke his leg. All the neighbours were very distressed. Such bad luck! The farmer said, "What makes you so sure this isn't a blessing?"
A year later the nomads came in force across the border, and every able-bodied man was conscripted and sent into battle. The Chinese frontiersmen lost nine of every ten men. Only the farmer's son, because he had a broken leg, remained. Only because the son was lame did the father and son survive to take care of each other. Truly, blessing turns to disaster, and disaster to blessing: the changes have no end, nor can the mystery be fathomed.
All events are neutral and even events that we perceive at that point of time to be negative may turn out to be blessings in disguise. The events that happen in your life are perfect as it is. You are in the perfect place on your perfect journey. You are right where you are meant to be, because you chose it. In fact, you could not be more perfect than you are now.
And now realize that you brought in all the good things into your life. Your thoughts and feelings moved the energies of the Universe to bring all those good things to you. You are a powerful being.
The law of attraction is precise, and when you do not get the results you want, it is only through your misuse of the law; instead of bringing what you want, you are creating not bringing what you want. But either way you are still creating. The law is infallible and it is always responding to you.
