“To dream by night is to escape your life. To dream by day is to make it happen.” ~Stephen Richards
Dear Universe,
One of my dearest friends is a big believer in you. I mean, huge. Not a day goes by where I don’t hear her talking to you, making requests and thanking you.
It’s inspiring to be around.
Even though I am of the same mindset and also speak to you daily, and even write you these letters, my friend takes it to a whole new level.
She is constantly talking about her desires as if she already has them. She knows exactly what she wants and she believes it will come to her because you, Universe, always deliver exactly what she needs, with divine timing.
What I love most is she speaks to you and of her wishes in the most natural way. She doesn’t have to think about it, force it or say it to convince herself. It just comes out as easily as someone talking about the weather or what they have to do that day.
It just is.
Friday we had a ladies’ day and at one point we talked about her house, her husband, her children and a vacation to Italy.
Technically, none of these things are in her life. But in reality, they are. I can see these things so vividly for her because she is so clear, so specific, so adamant and so convinced.
I know it’s only a matter of time.
And besides, I have seen her will things into her life the entire time I’ve known her so that helps me believe in the power of what she sees, says and believes.
I want to be more like her when it comes to this. I want to take my law of attraction-ing up a notch! I want to ask, believe, and yes gratefully receive—all the time, not just some of the time.
In the last couple of years I have discovered that the easiest part of manifesting is the asking. After all, once we figure out what we want, I think we are pretty good at requesting it.
Some of us are not as good at 
the receiving part. Either we are uncomfortable when opportunities, people and things come our way—because we don’t think we deserve them—or we simply never get to this step.
It’s because often when we make a request from you, Universe, we don’t always believe that you’ve heard us or that you will follow through. We don’t believe we are worthy of our requests.
How silly of us!
Universe, please help me work on the believing and receiving on a more consistent basis. I want to talk like my desires are already by my side and I want to feel it with every fiber of my being.
Thank you for sending such an inspirational person into my life. I know you had something to do with it as each encounter with another has a purpose and plan, long before we know it.
I am glad I was smart enough to gratefully receive her into my life. See? Sometimes I really do get it. 🙂
Much Gratitude,
A
