The Law of Attraction is a spiritual law every bit as real as The Law of Gravity or a heart attack! A simple analogy is, whenever one faces into a mirror, for instance in a bathroom, he gets an exact return image. This image is a non judgmental, non altering exact reproduction of what faced it. The Law of Attraction is the same with life. If I put love into my life, I get love in return. If I put joy into my life, I get joy in return. When I put anger in my life, I get anger in return.Then, if I put resentment in my life, I get resentment in return.
The law does not guarantee that the emotion will be returned by the original object of my emotion, but it WILL come back from somewhere.
There have been times when, for no known reason, someone has gone off on me or done something very nice for me “out of the blue,” so to speak. A shining example of this Law of Attraction in action was when I was in the madness, I thought that most people were really rotten. When I started sobering up and learning to treat people better, I was amazed at how nice most of them seemed to become. The rest of them at least became tolerable.
As I continue working on my program, I no longer feel threatened or defensive about anyone. This does not mean that I like everybody. It just means that, if I just accept them as ‘it is what it is,’ I can continue to be Happy, Joyous, and Free in my own life, unencumbered by negativity about others.
We have discussed The Law of Attraction and Divine Oneness or We-ness before and, by now, probably know that we need each other to succeed. Patterns are repeated throughout the universe. Like the ripples in a still pond when you drop a pebble into it. Think about the thoughts and ideas that go through your head about a myriad of things. “Ah-ha, I have an original idea!” Then think of hearing someone else say the same thing at a later time and then maybe someone else the same.
I feel this a lot at AA meetings. The Law of Attraction puts me with similar people on a regular basis. There are no original thoughts in my head, only thoughts and ideas placed into the Divine Mind which are shared with me by my Higher Power. I do not like hearing “As so and so says” followed by a statement because then others seem to feel obligated to attribute it to a particular person not the Higher Power who originated it.
When I live in the now and stay in the awareness of the now, I and the people around me will be truly Happy, Joyous, and Free. Like an attraction to other, similar people, places, and things. So who would you rather be around to share your time with? The Oneness/we-ness with all that exists that we spiritually share with all is a tremendously rewarding way of life.
Where else can one find something so comforting and exhilarating that makes us want to share it with everyone and makes us feel so complete? Abraham Hicks says “Your life is right now! Not later! It’s not in that time of retirement. It’s not when the lover gets here. It is not when you’ve moved into the new house. Nor when you get the better job. Your life is right now. It will always be right now. You might as well decide to start enjoying your life right now, because it’s not ever going to get better than right now. Until it gets better right now!” And it gets better when we place our Happy, Joyous, and Free selves into our own mirror of life by using this very Law of Attraction.
What do you put into the mirror of your life? I have such Happiness, Joy, and Freedom that I never thought existed and if it did, not for me. I began reaping these rewards when I put emphasis on what I placed into my own Law of Attraction, or Mirror of Life.
My prayer is that you have as much as I have and even much more. This is what I try to put into my mirror of life. It is simple! Just work the program of AA 24/7/365 to the best of your ability and you will have it! As it says in How it Works, “If you want what we have and are willing to go to any lengths to get it” you have come to the right place. I was ready to go to any lengths to get it and am still willing to go to any lengths to keep it. You do the same and you will have it.This is a promise! God bless you!
