Hello everyone! I would like to welcome all new subscribers. It has been a long time since I actually sat and wrote something in about a year. I started this Blog as a requirement in my Digital Story Telling class at University of Mary Washington as most of you did also. This will be my first Blog that was not school required. Since graduating this past December, I have been just concentrating on finding my new career (still searching), so I’ve been doing the ‘Resume-rumble’ for the last six months. A gentle warm welcome to all the new subscribers hope some of my examples help in your class, because I enjoyed my class immensely. I will be making a conscious effort writing more, and until I notch out my niche, my thoughts and writings may be random at times. Enjoy the ride as it may be.

With all the turmoil being displayed i.e. media outlets I too have been feeling tested in these wearisome days. Not wanting to continue down an undesirable path, I resulted back to what changed my life in a positive way about 10 years ago. Have you ever had an epiphany and acted on it? It could have been spiritual, scientific, or philosophical, but it somehow changed your life’s direction.

Doing some research helping to prepare for a lesson plan when working with children, I discovered Dr. Masaru Emoto, an International researcher/Author/Scientist, who is probably most famous for his ‘Rice/Water Experiments’ on YouTube. Dr. Emoto’s experiments allowed me to understand how manifesting worked (Manifestation for Dummies). Albert Einstein was giving credit with saying, “Everything is energy.” Dr. Emoto showed how using energy (words, music, vibrations, emotions, and more) could modify water at a molecular level. Dr. Emoto photographed drops of water in petri dishes after they were frozen capturing many unique crystal formations I dubbed “The Water Experiment.” I am not really sure what the actual experiment is called, but I know he researched and found correlating effects on water through its memory from current conditions the water had been placed upon. This is astounding when the Earth and mankind are made up of 70% water.

This made my approach to everything I do different. Now understanding how gratitude and being positive could change my life. Most importantly the realization of how much control over the future, thoughts, and feelings I have. Which is incredible if you think about it in terms of how little it can take to change one’s life without spending a lot of money. Marketers bombard us with products that supposedly will change our lives. We are trained to think if buying a certain outfit or beauty supply our life will change for the better. If we just lose weight joining “Gym-X”, buy a special piece of equipment, or amazing video tape all our troubles will magically dissipate. How many amazing looking, educated, what we think are well-put-together people do you know that are miserable, have drama filled lives, or stay in a confused state? We can’t settle for changing our outsides until we first change our thought processes, with the ultimate goal of changing our insides first.

Changing your life is not necessarily about purchasing something it is about how you think and feel. How we think whether positive or negative behest our reality. This is a Natural Law of the Universe called “The Law of Perpetual Transmutation of Energy.” In most religion realms this most resemble prayer or meditation to me, but I will leave that interpretation to the religious scholars. Either way, you feel more comfortable labeling “IT”…IT works, if you work IT. Do not let your thoughts be distracted keep your mind on what you want your life to be.

Love and Light
