Last month I attended a breakfast where a motivational speaker taught us about the Power of Manifestation. For anyone who may be wondering
what in the world that is, here’s the Google Def. : is being able to harness
your true destinies and desires in life-subconsciously put into vision, and
then into reality. Everything you want of the universe is already yours-the
clearer your thoughts and thinking on the matter, the more timely and precise the
delivery will come.
My whole adult life, when I was asked by someone how many
kids I wanted, the answer was always four kids - two girls and two boys. I’ve
always said it confidently and believing it will happen. So when I was reminded
about the power of manifestation concept last month, I realized I can put it to the test when I find out the gender of this fourth baby I’m
carrying (already having two girls and one boy, I was still on track to be
manifesting my desires).
Well, yesterday we found out the gender, and lo and behold,
we’re having a GIRL. I was mostly surprised that the power of manifestation has
failed me and I couldn’t understand how that was possible since I know I had
done it how it’s described, by the book (without even realizing or being
educated on the matter).
So I am open now to the belief that this power may
either be garbage (what my dear husband has often times said to me), or that
there are some things set in stone, maybe even before the world was made, that
no matter how hard you try to manifest one way, it will still happen the way
God has intended it.
I’ve also learned that there are some things in life, such as
your kids gender, that is better left up to chance rather that become too
committed to a certain outcome.
Either way, I’ve gotten more excited to having another little
girl by the minute, and I am curious to see how different she will be from her
sisters. (Adaline has wanted a girl from the get go, and Emilia is still in shock
we’re having a girl and not a boy – this is due to me brainwashing her, we’d
never discuss any girls names, but would quickly switch to boys only.) And
Ellis is oblivious, probably glad he won’t be dethroned.
