The reason things don’t work is because we use our consciousness to manipulate situations. But it’s really no wonder that that doesn’t work. There’s just too much noise, too much interference. If we could let go and trust that our needs and wants are absolutely perfect and just let them play out as they shall, and know that you are headed for the destination you desire, life will be smooth, happy, and desires will be realized sooner than if we try to interfere with the divinity within us, which is creating exactly what we want.
