A Travel Dream Becomes Reality

If you’ve been following my posts of late you know I’m doing exercises and activities from “Ask and It’s Given” By Esther and Jerry Hicks and Abraham. This past week I saw one of my visualization box wishes become reality. To help you understand lets go back about six weeks. Six weeks ago I was following the press trip of a writer I’ve come to enjoy. Her website is Almostfearless.com She gave up her corporate life and became a travel nomad writing and blogging her way around the world with her husband and dogs in tow. I receive her travel updates via email and in early November she was headed out for a six day press trip to write about Belieze, courtesy of Belieze Tourism.
When I saw her post about the trip I said aloud, ” I want to do that. I want to take a press trip like that.” Along with my statement were physical pictures and travel brochures of places in the caribbean I would like to visit. All of this was inside my visualization box which I see daily on my living room stand. Let me also be clear, I’ve spent the last two years blogging for a travel website and have spent ten years of my life traveling and working overseas. So it wasn’t just a whim that had me saying I want to take a press trip. I’ve done the ground work. I have the skills and I have the knowledge to write and travel alone. I was simply asking the universe to help me manifest an opportunity to put my skills in the forefront as a traveler and writer.
Just over one month later I was contacted by the writer whose travel website I write for. She offered me an opportunity to travel as part of a press trip to the caribbean. After thinking 10.5 seconds I said I’m 98% sure I can go, I will get back to you in the morning with a final answer. Of course that answer was YES! Are you kidding me? No writer who loves to travel is going to say no to an opportunity to travel and write about their experience. So within six weeks of my desire to manifest a press trip I was preparing to head out on my own caribbean press trip. Life is pretty amazing!
I departed on Dec 16th for four amazing, adventurous days on the caribbean island of Aruba. I know it was a combination of belief, manifestation, divine support, years of writing, blogging and traveling that created this amazing opportunity. It was powerful and awe inspiring to see this moment manifest in my life. It is the realization of one dream and a start to a whole series of dreams. I am blessed, I am grateful and I am thrilled to be at this place in my life. It feels like a beautiful, spiritual gift. I see these exercises working in my life. I hope you will be inspired to use them in your own life. Namaste
