To allow ourselves to be truly in touch with where we already are, no
matter where that is, we have got to pause in our experience long enough to let
the present moment sink in; long enough to actually feel the present moment, to
see it in its fullness, to hold it in awareness and thereby come to know and
understand it better. ― Jon Kabat-Zinn Wherever You Go, There You Are
Where is the law located? It is
everywhere. It occupies all space and fills every form with differentiations of
Itself. It must flow through us in order to manifest for us.
― Ernest Holmes Science of
Mind
After more than forty years at
the same address with the same doctor and dentist for over two decades, and the
same insurance companies for nearly three decades, I am scrambling to change
everything, including my automatic recall of my address and phone number. Each
day I progress as I accomplish one or two items on my check list. Yet, as soon
as I think I have set things right, some other change pops up.
Here’s the blessing: My routine
isn’t anymore. Each day is completely new beyond the calendar change. I feel
more alive and alert now and I realize that I can continue this vitality by
always focusing on where I am and what actions that calls for. Prosperity
location is where we happen to be if we are alert to that reality.
I think my long enough and
Kabat-Zinn’s long enough differ slightly. He says that we need to pause in our
experience to let it sink in. I think we need to merge with the flow of our
experience as a good driver merges with the flow of traffic or a good surfer
merges with the flow of the wave. Long enough means here and now. The only
definition for prosperity location is here/now.
The prosperity mentality that
opened the way for my relocation continues with me from old to new locations
but requires special actions for the moment that seem to interfere with me in
getting my accustomed daily activities done in a timely manner. By being
constantly attentive, in what we are doing, releasing our attachment to our
habitual way of working, and allowing new and spontaneous inspiration to guide us,
we prosper in the achievement of all we need to do. We become more efficient
and more effective.
I pause long enough to take one
deep breath as my signal to merge consciously with Spirit in all of my current
circumstances and emergent changes. Merged, I attend to inner wisdom and the
rising awareness of what is, what is not yet, and what I need to do to bring
everything together for my new life in my new location with ease and grace.
Spirit informs me, I deed and act accordingly. I prosper now gratefully in this
location and so it is.

“First
you ask definitely for direction, then it will enter your consciousness as a
definite thought; then in your turn you give it back the thought and it will
give you back the thing. It answers every question, solves every problem; it is
the solution to every difficulty.” Ernest Holmes
