What you seek is seeking you.

Today we want you to focus on the power of your desire. This power is so strong and so clear when activated, that it literally causes the stream of thought and things in the universe to shift course and adjust to the focus that you give it.

We are not so foolish as to think that you get every single thing you want. We do not see the universe as a giant hand in the sky that moves things around according to your whim.

But it is important to note that those desires that stay with you; those desires that get stronger as time passes; each of those desires is calling forth from inside of you for a reason. What you seek is seeking you.

There is a reason why you are sometimes able to become very, very clear about a desire. You make it the sole reason for the actions you take. You place it above all things. You feel driven, or compelled, or convinced that this course alone is the right one for you.

What you are feeling in those moments is the power of what you desire calling you. Just as you are a magnet for your desires, your desires are magnets for you. They call you forth. They wake you up. They tap you on the shoulder to get your attention.

As you go through each day, you seemingly have thousands of random thoughts. These thoughts are not random. Hardly. This is your interconnectedness with all life.

Each of these thoughts is your interaction with the fabric of reality. Some thoughts are yours and originate from your own personal field. Other thoughts are originating from people around you. There is no harm in this. Those thoughts and feelings that do not belong to you will not stay with you. They are just passing through. However, this is an example of why it is so important that you learn to focus your mind.

Mindfulness, observation, and inquiry are powerful tools that can help you stay focused on what is truly important to you. As you get to know your mind better, you will begin to discern what is yours and what isn't. You will begin to discern what is important to you – what is truly calling you – and what isn't.

Perhaps today would be an excellent time to begin or continue this practice of mindfulness. See if you can watch the stream of your thoughts from the riverbank instead of in the middle of the rushing, swirling flow. Take 5 minutes and allow your thoughts to be flowing without any judgment as to their rightness or wrongness. Just allow them to be. You will begin to notice that the seemingly random thoughts come and go. They do not stay for long. You will also begin to notice that those thoughts that are important to you will come again and again. Not because you are attaching importance to them but because they are calling you.

Practice this once or twice today and notice how you feel better and more peaceful once your 5 minutes are finished. Also notice if the seeming chaos of your thoughts begins to dissipate a bit.

By observing and watching, instead of avoiding or fixing, you allow the real you to emerge. And what you will see will be magnificent.
