pure luck or something else?

I would like to believe that my experiences are simply because of pure luck or coincidences but are they really?

I was wanting to eat Goldilocks polvoron, really simple story, lol!

I asked my husband about, maybe, asking a friend to buy it for me, since she left to visit her family in the Philippines. Great timing, right? But, decided not to.

The next day, guess, what happened? I visited one of the schools, I was assigned to, and was greeted by one of the Filipino teachers working there, out of the blue, she pulled out a plastic bag full of goodies and gave me Goldilocks polvoron! 

Did I attract it? Mmm...


Here's more:

I was so sleepy and decided to sleep but I was afraid somebody might call me, so I turned my cellphone to a silent mode. Just minutes after I went to bed, somebody knocked on the door looking for me!

How lucky could I get?

If there are no coincidences... then, I guess, with just my THOUGHTS I was able to attract the simple Goldilocks polvoron that I yearn for and my fear of being disturbed actually brought me the very thing that I did not want!

Maybe, there is really some truth in the Law of Attraction.

.. and maybe, I could make good use of that law in bringing about people, things and places that I want in my life.

Interesting, huh?

    Let's just say, positive thoughts attract positive action.

    Lucky you! I believe in law of attraction too, that whatever you think about, you'll attract it into your life. Dominant thoughts are sometimes too domineering.

    I've always believed in the Law of Attraction. I learned more about its concept when my kuya bought me the book: The Secret. Attracting the things, regardless if these are positive or negative stuff, can be made possible if you truly devote your energy into it. You know what Ms. Gemma? I was flunking Chemistry back in college.. but with the secret, I believed I passed Chem because I put in a lot of positive thoughts to it. :) Up until now, I still believe in 'The Secret' :)

    Yes, I believe there is truth in the law of attraction. As well, be careful what you wish for. It just might come true hehe.

    Your wish may be simple, but blogging about it the way you did doesn't make it so simple anymore. It actually has just turned itself into a wake-up call, that sometimes we wish for the things we can never have and we forget to be thankful for the things that we already have.

    Thanks for sharing, Gemma!

    Mind over matter huh!! So next time, be careful what you wish for because you just might get it... maybe a lottery?

    Life coincidence does really happen, especially when you're craving for something and you've a strong desire for it. Or even when you least expect it. But the point it really did materialize or realize.

I do what I do

Writing is my outlet! I have been doing this since Grade 4. When I’ve written what I have in mind, I would sleep really well and would move on.  So, it’s like a therapy to me! Lol! http://gemsdaily.blogspot.com I love writing, I love the process of unfolding, unraveling, cocooning, De-boning as I put the exact words in my piece.. Kind of like a puzzle... Almost there, but not quite... yet! I know I am involved in the process of becoming as I continue to write, as I continue to grow, yearn and learn. I am still challenging myself to be so much more, do so much more and make my dreams come true for myself and for my family.  I look forward to have us all achieve our grandest desires for ourselves and our loved ones.  My mission is to continuously inspire, encourage and motivate myself and hopefully – you! (if by chance you read this) to just get out of our shells and be, do and have more in life.  To BE MORE, D...

Learning Life's Lessons!

I heard or read somewhere that life will continue to give us lessons until we learn it. Two weeks after graduating from college, I was already teaching college students.    I was so idealistic, perfectionist and wouldn’t tolerate students who were cheating, talking while I was teaching and not doing their work. Ye s , I was really strict! Many of my former students would attest to that! The thing was even if I knew I needed to change, I continued on doing what I was doing because I was afraid if I lost my control, if I became friendly and acted my age (I was just 20 then!, some of my students were even older than me!), I felt my students wouldn’t respect me and may took advantage of my kindness. So I continued on with my demeanor; I pushed my students to meet my expectations! I abhorred cheating, if they did so (I was good at finding out; because all our activities were computerized), the next day they would find their names written in bold caps posted in t...
