		<description><![CDATA[Hi I see where your confusion lies but action is a necessary component in assisting the universe to answer your goals. Action usually lies with changing your behaviour, your habitual actions and responses, your perceptions to life. You must act as if what you are asking for is already achieved. If it is financial abundance you are asking for, you need to change your vibration to that of being abundant. This means being grateful each time you pay a bill, for instance, give thanks the the universe for the abundance you have in, say having electricity all month adn the means to pay it. Change your habitual thoughts from lack to abundance which means stop complaiing about lack of money or drop fears about not having enough. Only you can identify what areas of your life, what thoughts, limiting beliefs and behaviours are keeping you stuck in your current state. Move your feet is essential, Abraham will always remcommend changing your vibration to that which you are seeking. Give some money away, help those less fortunate than you, the list is endless but the feeliing of lack must change. Good luck, i hope this helps. :)

		<description><![CDATA[Thank you, Rani. I just finished a book that is so about this titled &quot;Goal-Free Living&quot; by Stephen Shapiro. I will write a post about it soon, but I&#039;m still in the process of dovetailing it into my world view. 

Since I wrote this post, the traffic in my lane stopped again, so it is good to hear from you that, given enough time, it will restart and get moving enough to change lanes if necessary.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I was also stuck in a lane that stopped for two years, just started moving again 5 months ago, and then recently I switched lanes. Your metaphor is apt. It captures the frustration and confusion of standing still while the others move past you. When my lane stopped, it was partially a choice (moving to a place I&#039;ve always wanted to be) and then a choice out of my control (the economy). It was a year of choosing to stop, and a year or more of wanting to get moving again.

It was when I let go and just accepted this is where I am, where I want to be and stopped beating myself up for so many things out of my control, that I started to move.

Everyone&#039;s story is different. Thank you for sharing yours -- it resonated.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Mark, it is challenging to bare my soul in a way that can inspire others, yet still allow me the privacy I need to work through my own &quot;stuff.&quot; This was such a post. I wonder sometimes if I am being too obscure, but your response makes me think that, perhaps, I am not. And, perhaps, all this soul-baring is worthwhile. 

Thank you,

Petra]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Petra
        Thank you for your postings. I was moved by your unique gift to put into words
        exactly what I am feeling , it was a great comfort.
        Snakes, rocks, and hard places has hit home at a very difficult time and  
        it was a tremendous blessing for me to have read you site.

         Soon I hope to stop being blind and living less constrictive.

   Kindest regards
   Mark]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Petra,

Your situation is a painful yet (hard to believe) positive life changing experience. Two and a half years we (my husband,  4 year old son and I) lost our small dream home, our business, and a whole lot of &quot;stuff&quot; to the &quot;perfect storm of adverse financial circumstances&quot;. What perfect wording you have created  to summarize this economic flood of loss, uncertainty and the looming fear of reinventing life our lives as we have known them.

I admire your strength. At some level you already know this, but incredible changes will emerge from this experience. 

This is just my experience.... but above all else, I have learned that regardless of my economic circumstances, my amount of stuff (or lack of stuff), where I live, what I do for a living, etc. I will land on my feet. It may take a while to shake myself off and pick up the pieces, but I now understand the importance of healing. Allowing time to process the emotions of gratitude for the incredible support of family and friends, anger and grief at my losses, relief that the fear of the unknown is over (or at least moving toward the known), and misc. fallout. I say misc. fallout because sometimes &quot;debris&quot; from the &quot;perfect storm&quot; comes back to nip you on the back side just when you have started looking ahead and stopped worrying about your derriere :)

When the emotional and physical strength to move forward returns to your body and your family, it is amazing. We have found that although the surroundings and &quot;stuff&quot; have changed, all that is meaningful and important in our lives is still very much there. Our quality of life is better than ever, (on a FRACTION of the income we had just 3 years ago). 

Best wishes on your exciting new journey.]]></description>
