That has nothing to do with the subject. "Wishing is just wishing." It does not go any further than that.

Also, even with thought, belief and intention, which is what is required, it is never instant. Thank goodness for that.

P.S. the above statement says, at the end: ... NO MATTER HOW HARD I TRY, I CANNOT DO IT."



So what do you think he accomplishes by that statement?

He actually demonstrates and proves my point.

A person who says (and thinks and believes) this:

"No matter how much I try or how much I think about finding the man of my dreams, I cannot do it. He does not exist."

Proves my point.

Point me in the direction of studies that support this. I'd be very interested in reading them.



It does if you're a skeptic. The more I look at these things, the less legitimate they turn out to be over time. Just substitute "get what you want" for "get rich" -- why should I assume that one has any more legitimacy than the other?

People claim to see ghosts, or they claim that the Virgin Mary came to visit them and warned them about drinking reconstituted orange juice or whatever. Some of these people seem very credible, on the surface. But when you ask for any sort of corroborating evidence, there's nothing.



In fact, I do believe that. Regardless, no one WALKED there. That was the point.

Or maybe he really doesn't exist. All I'm saying is, if he genuinely doesn't exist, he isn't going to magically pop into existence just because you think he will.

By that logic, I should have my own stegosaurus by now.

I've met people who say to me: "I wish I could paint a portrait."

I ask them: Why don't you?

They will say: "I tried once (or many times) and I just can't do it. I can't get it to look right.. blah blah blah."

THAT IS DEFEAT.

Instead, they need to think and say:

"I am going to do whatever it takes to learn how to paint a portrait, no matter how long it takes."

That is INTENTION.

You cannot achieve what you want if you think and talk nothing but defeat.

He exists.

He is feeding on the Giant Planet sized Tomato...

That's one point. Another is, you can't achieve what you want if what you want does not exist and has no means of being brought into existence.

There is "defeat" and there is reality. Sometimes the two may intersect and then you end up with the same result. This is not a good thing or a bad thing, it's simply a pragmatic acknowledgment of conditions.

I will not rule out the possibility of time travel to the Jurassic. Especially since I'm using that very concept in a book....

He exists, I can feel him in the force.
The thing is, I don't have to own him.

I love him without ever having met him in this life.

I'm in no big hurry.

I don't understand it....but I believe you...

I don't people just change unless they are some kind of head case.I'd say if you get married and feel your partner has changed you probably weren't paying attention from the start.

That's faith.

Oh but if what you want does not exist, you would not want it and you could not even think about it or imagine it.

But If you can imagine it, then it exists or it has the potential to be brought into existence because all things come from mind stuff.



I do not understand the correlation between "defeat" and "reality."

It is always a good first step to acknowledge conditions and accept what is, if you know for a fact what is. But people do not know the whole of what is. They only think they know.

If you can accept what is without knowing what is, that is faith.

and men have evil intentions when they wont (not that I care - trust me I am the IDC person)

exactly -well said

thanks klc

really I think the whole premise to this thread is backwards because in my experience men change after marriage also - no more rushing home for that romantic Friday night.....the lesson here is one all of divorced types have learned - not to take each other for granted just cuz that little ring is on that 3rd finger...
