Thank you for this series! I’ve been getting stuck mentally with thoughts/fears/worries an unusual amount recently. This post has helped me for the moment - and I will continue the journey… to be continued:) sending all of my love.

Got the smiley face yesterday! I did start seeing pictures of them immediately after my March 31st post below, and yesterday I was at an estate sale and found a large (18” diameter) bright yellow, smiley face pillow for $1. As soon as I saw it, I knew it was for me! I wish I could send a picture…

Well, no wonder I was confused! I had started reading your original post where you were talking about, and defining abundance, but I never finished. I’ve been really busy lately and must have been interrupted and meant to get back to it later, but forgot and I guess I thought I had read it all. But I went back to make sure that you had NOT clearly defined “abundance”, as I thought, and realized that you had. My bad, sorry! You said in a subsequent piece to read that one first or it might not make sense, and you were right!

So, yes, now I can say that I want very much this abundance that you describe! And I will go back to the 3 articles that you wrote and re-read them, knowing what you’re talking about now, and looking for help in my own journey from scarcity to abundance. I do see one question I will probably have after re-reading everything, and that’s where the Ursula K. LeGuin quote comes in and a question on free will. But I have to study it all first and will get back to you about that.

And by the way, the improv on the mountain with Rose was breathtaking! It brought tears to my eyes, it was so beautiful. I understood a little of what you meant by abundance, listening to it and getting lost in it…

Thank you so much for taking the time to write all this down and share what you’ve learned so others can benefit also, it is greatly appreciated!

Whoa, I’m kinda lost now. I’ve been confused about the term “abundance” since the start of this series and now I’m even more confused about the whole program you’ve been describing. I’m going to have to read and re-read this over and over to try to sort things out. I did see smiley faces this past week and noted them, but I’m not sure what I did to “summon” them (for lack of a better term), or how it relates to cultivating feelings that i want in my life. And I do have a quote I would like to share from “A Wizard of Earthsea” by Ursula K. LeGuin, after I read your post over a few times. It has to do with free will and choosing what we want, and I think it’s relevant to my confusion. So I’ll be back after I sort things out.🙃

This brought me back to earning gold stars - literally! In my sixth grade science class we had a chart with our names and we got a star sticker each time we answered questions right. It became highly competitive.
