What if my junk is making me fat?

What if clutterers tend to overeat because their objects drain them and everywhere they look, there is a pile of something (in the closets, on the floor, in the drawers, on the counters, in the yard, in the car)?

What if these items hold memory and also tired energy?

What if some of these items have come from sad places or sad people or even the garbage and the clutterer has to keep eating just to stay grounded to feel a little better?

What if people with a lot of clutter often cannot keep up with the dust and the cobwebs and that compounds the energy drain?                        Connie

What if I focused on the bright side?

What if I was speaking with a person who was going head-on into an experience that could either go in a good way or a bad way?

What if I had already experienced the good and the bad of the situation but I chose to share the good things that they might encounter?

What if because of this, they only encountered the good things because that was what they had been focusing upon?

What if I only got a mint green sweater?

What if we could measure our growth by what makes us angry?

What if I got mad because the store did not have the hat I wanted in my particular shade of “austere azure” or someone stole my parking place close to the front door or I chipped the nail polish on my thumb?

What if you got angry if you saw unneeded cruelty by a bully, or a person boldly telling a lie about another person or someone being mean to a helpless animal?

 

What if I visited an old concentration camp?

What if I had the opportunity to visit a concentration camp in Poland that had been closed for years before I was born?

What if my intention was to honor the souls who suffered so greatly here and acknowledge the horrors they went through and bless them with love?                                    Susan

What if you ask me 10,000 questions?

What if I have a friend and every time we get together, he grills me like a hamburger with 5000 questions and every time I try to inquire about him he replies with more questions and advice?

What if I know that he is trying to distract me from finding anything out about his very personal life and business and would be insulted if I asked him the questions he has no difficulty in asking me?

What if because of his ways, we cannot have a real conversation because I am always on guard and he is always thinking of the next question?

What if he really did care?

What if I pay your rent?

What if my friend is barely able to cover his own expenses but every person who shows a need to him goes away better for knowing him?

What if my thought was that he should take care of himself first and then help others when he is financially stable?

What if he has such a belief that he will be cared for on the planet that he is able to live each day in the present moment not worrying about tomorrow?

What if I watch people bring him leftover gourmet food from their banquet (which he then shares with others) or ask him to watch and use their car while they are away or use their house until it sells (a few years later) or pay him for a healing service and as he continues to give everything away, all his needs are met?                  Dr Ciri

What if I need to control everything at all times?

What if I am a very controlling person and everything needs to be done my way which is the best way, of course?

What if the Universe continues to bring me very annoying people who will not do it my way and they are driving me nuts and filling me with frustration and anger and making my life miserable when I think about them and I wish that they would just go somewhere else far from me?

What if these annoying people are actually angels in my life trying to help me see that if I loosened up the reins just a little and let life flow, I could have a much more enjoyable life experience and maybe then I could see that they might have a good idea once in a while too?

What if I can heal your foot?

What if I am the president of my company caring for the well being of many families or an impressive motivational speaker who can fill a large stadium or a healer with 1000s of faithful followers and I am feeling good about myself because I am using my skills and talents to help myself and many others in the world?

What if my ego begins to take over and my skills begin to evaporate?

What if I cannot see you?

What if there are civilizations on other planets but they inhabit the inner core of the planet so we cannot see them and thus feel that the planet is uninhabited?

What if there are millions of species on other planets as well as here but their vibrations are different and we cannot see them just as we cannot see air or electricity?

What if I don’t want to do the dishes?

What if I find myself procrastinating and just cannot even force myself to do what I feel I “should” be doing?

What if procrastinating is actually OK because the timing for the project is not correct and if I force myself to do it, it will not go easily and will drain my energy? What if I just wait awhile or a day or two and then “zoom zoom,” I get the energy to do it and the project flows effortlessly because now the timing is correct?

What if I cannot seem to get the energy to do anything, might I be depressed and need to look into that?

 

What if he wants to go door to door?

What if Nancy is doing something that Tom feels is not correct and Tom wants to start a petition against Nancy and get the community involved?

What if pushing against something only draws more of the same to us and Tom would be better off by either helping to figure out a solution or waiting and watching and allowing the Universe to orchestrate what is best for all?

What if I only spoke kindness?

What if I make a conscious effort that from this day forward I will not say or listen to any negative word about another person?

What if this past negativity has left me with a dirty and nauseous feeling? What if I chance to be in the presence of gossiping people, and I choose to say that I do not see it that way or else change the subject and ask if they have a good recipe for cheesecake or remove myself from the area for awhile?

What if it is not up to me to judge another but it is up to me to choose what I say and hear? What if now that I am aware of this lesson, none of it will be an issue anymore?

What if you believe you have to “toil” from dawn til dusk?

What if you have a belief that it takes hard work to make enough money to support yourself on this planet?

What if you spent your workday figuring and refiguring your weekly take home pay and knew exactly how many minutes you had to work to purchase something? What if you never gave your employer an extra minute because you were filled with fear and needed to be paid for every second?

What if because you believed that way, you always had to work hard and were often a little short on money?

What if you begin to believe that you are always taken care of? What if now you are?

What if we cannot see the BIG picture?

What if person #1 murdered person #2 in this lifetime but in a past lifetime #2 had poisoned #1 and they both needed to experience how it feels to be a  victim and a victimizer?

What if someone embezzled a lot of money from me in this lifetime but in a previous lifetime they had worked for years and because of my conniving ways I had ended up with everything they had and we were both supposed to feel loss of trust and loss of property but it just took two lifetimes?

What if everything going on, on this planet, is in perfect order for our highest growth, but we are limited to only seeing this lifetime?

What if we have a childhood trauma?

What if the majority of us have had a childhood trauma or drama, perhaps a rejection or abandonment or loss, that we have lived with for many years and this issue has become our story and influenced our life and held us back from being our BEST authentic person?

What if we just breathed and allowed ourselves to let it go and thanked it for the experience because it has helped form who we are today and then spoke or thought of it no more and focused on today and stayed in the present moment and began to see and appreciate what a marvelous person we really are and how blessed we are to have our life?

What if I am doing a little better?

What if this year I focused on doing a little better than last year at this time? What if I watched a little less TV and read fewer newspapers until they can focus on something other than fear, gossip and the need for the consumption of products they are trying to convince me that I desperately need to make myself happier????

What if I recycled a little more, used a little less gasoline, water and electricity, decluttered my mind and living space a little more, enjoyed a little more quiet time and shared a little more of my time and talents with others?

What if next year, I used even less of the resources on our planet?

What if Mother Earth still wants me to enjoy my experience on the planet and have everything that I want?

What if it was about my motive?

What if it was all about my motive as I went through my day?

What if my intention was about greedily trying to get something from you, or what if I was truly encouraging your dreams? What if I was about putting you down, or what if I was lifting up your spirits with a kind word? Am I being  jealous of your accomplishments or am I being proud of your successes? Am I wishing you well or trying to trip you up or laughing at you behind your back or sharing a healing smile?

Remember, everything I wish for you, I receive also.

What if I put my bucket near the cactus?

What if I put all of my cares and woes and worries and fears and sadness and troubles into a bucket?

What if seven other people did the same and we all took our individual buckets and lined them up under the cactus and then from here we could pick a new bucket of cares and woes to deal with?

What if we all walked away with our own bucket because we are familiar with it?

What if it was unbelievable?

What if things that appear too good to be true are? What if I have a friend who invited me to put some money into something saying that I will get an unbelievable return? What if this deal started out in integrity but soon shifted once all of the free money started pouring in?

What if I dipped my toe into this affair and soon was selling my insurance and putting in my tax returns and talking my friends into doing the same?

What if my greed overtook my common sense and wiped out my intuition?

What if the whole thing dissolved for lack of integrity and we all lost everything?
