Lost contact? Start thinking.
It never ceases to amaze me, how someone I haven't seen for ages crops up in my mind and I wonder how they are. I try to call them only to discover the number I have has changed so I fail to make contact. But then within a week or so, they have had the idea themselves and phoned me up or sent an email. This has just happened to me again. A lovely lady I used to know 18 years ago when I went horse riding regularly at some stables outside London. We have not been in touch since our last sojourn on horseback. But she came to my mind a month ago or so but I couldn't find her number. Out of the blue, she emailed me today.
A similar thing happened a few weeks ago with regards to a newspaper article I wanted to do with a particular UK paper. I had the journalist's phone number in front of me, having met her on several occasions in the past, and was on the verge of phoning when I thought better of it and decided that maybe it's best to wait. What happens within two weeks? I get a call on my mobile when I'm on holiday. The same paper I had in mind wants to do a feature article and my contact who I hadn't seen for three years or more had recommended to the editor that she contact me. How weird is that?
It's not weird at all. It's the way it works. This stuff works nearly all the time. We think of something and it turns up. We think of a person and we bump into them on the street or they call us. it happens far too often for it to be 'co-incidence'. If what we think about turns up, it would seem a good idea if we make sure the thoughts we have are about things we like, rather than problems. We don't want unwanted stuff turning up at our door just because we've been worrying about it all. Switching thoughts to things we would like and what we'd love to experience are much happier things to consider and dwell on.
Thinking of what we want does not necessarily ensure it comes our way. We need to take some action towards our goals. But no-one ever got what they wanted by believing it would never happen. If we keep our thoughts positive, and take positive action towards our goal, then.......just watch it roll up at your own front door.
Thanks for getting in touch Kim. I'm so pleased that we may meet again quite soon after our long gap of nearly 18 years. Your email made my day!

This kind of reminds me of a quote from one of the movies I've watched -- If you want something to happen, you must want it very badly.
I keep this quote at the back of my mind, whenever I think I've come to a dead end, I think of it, and it's amazing what a quote can do at times when I'm desperate :D
