amandaybear's blog: "My life"

You may write me down in history With your bitter, twisted lies, You may trod me in the very dirt But still, like the dust. I'll rise. Does my sassiness upset you? Why are you beset with gloom? 'Cause I walk like I've got oil wells Pumping in my living room. Just like the moons and like suns, With the certainty of tides, Just like hopes springing high, Still I'll rise. Did you want to see me broken? Bowed head and lowered eyes? Shoudlers falling down like teardrops. Weakend by my soulful cries. Does my haughtiness offend you? Don't you take it awful hard 'Cause I laugh like I've got gold mines Diggin' in my own backyard. You may shoot me with your words, You may cut me with your eyes, You may kill me with your hatefullness, But still, like air, I'll rise. Does my sexiness upset you? Does it come as a surprise That I dance likes I've got diamonds At the meeting of my thighs? Out of the huts of history's shame I rise Up from a past that's rooted in pain I rise I'm an ocean, leaping and wide, Welling and swelling I bear the tide. Leaving behind night of terror and fear I rise Into a daybreak that's wondrously clear I rise Bringing the gifts that my ancestors gave, I am the dream and the hope of the slave I rise I rise I rise. by Maya Angelou

What you resist, you attract, because you are powerfully focused on it with emotion. To change anything, go within and emit a new signal with your thoughts and feelings. You cannot help the world by focusing on the negative things. As you focus on the world's negative events, you not only add to them, but you also bring more negative things into your own life. Instead of focusing on the world's problems, give your attention and energy to trust, love, abundance, education, and peace. We will never run out of good things because there's more than enough to go around for everyone. Life is meant to be abundant. You have the ability to tap into the unlimited supply through your thoughts and feelings and bring it into your experience. Praise and bless everything God brings into your life. You will disolve negativity and discord and align yourself with the highest frequency- love. Amanda Bear

Most of us were taught to put ourselves last, and as a consequence we attracted feelings of being unworthy and undeserving. Unless you fill yourself up first, you have nothing to give anybody. Therefore it is imperative that you tend to YOU first. Attend your joy first. You must begin to treat yourself with love and respect, and emit that signal and get on that frequency. The law of attraction will move the entire Universe, and your life will be full of people who love and respect you. Many people sacrificed themselves for others, thinking when they sacrifice themselves they are being a good person. WRONG!! TO ACQUIRE LOVE....FILL YOURSELF UP WITH IT UNTIL YOU BECOME A MAGNET. Undoubtedly to some, the idea of giving so much love to self will seem very cold, hard, and unmerciful. Still this matter may be seen in a different light, when we find that "looking out for number One," as directed by the Infinite, is really looking out for number Two and is indeed the only way to permanently benifit Number Two."!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Everything that you want- all the joy, love, abundance, prosperity, bliss- it's there for you to grab ahold of it. You've got to get hungry for it--You've got to be intentional. When you become intentional and on fire for what you want, the universe will deliver every single thing that you've been wanting. Recognize the beautiful and wonderful things around you, bless and praise them. And on the other side, the things that aren't currently working the way you want them to work, don't spend your energy faulting or complaining. Embrace everything that you have, want, and need so you get more of it.
