You Light up my Life!

We were doing research on crystals in the bookstore and library yesterday. We found an interesting stone, which has a combination of colors: it appears white with black spots in the photo. This stone has unique qualities. It lights up the dark and conversely, darks up the light. It's a rare stone, called Merlinite. I would venture a guess that the name has something to do with the famous wizard, Merlin.

Words are things

Does everyone think in words? I think so. Please post a comment or send an email if you don’t.

I do believe thoughts are powerful things. And we do have control over our thoughts to some extent. I believe we have more control over our spoken words than our thoughts. Because we usually think the words before we say them. And I have many thoughts that I do not choose to continue. I deliberately change them. I don’t dwell on sickness or injury or the worst that could happen. I choose to think about health, vibrant health and energy.

I am actually conducting an experiment right now. I affirm every morning and several times per day that I have so much energy, and lots of time. I always have time. I always have energy. I do schedule enough time for sleep and for meditation and self-hypnosis every day. I think that they are essential for me to have boundless energy. I don’t believe I can keep going beyond exhaustion if I don’t take care of myself. Affirmations and self-hypnosis are good, but not enough if I don’t take care of myself. I use affirmations and have had success with them before.

I got the idea for this experiment, because Mike Dooley issued a challenge for his audience to try, which was to keep saying, ”I’m so tired; I just don’t know why I’m exhausted all the time!” Even if you are lying. But I have no doubt that that would succeed and I prefer to create boundless energy, rather than exhaustion.
