Our lives are influenced by those around us and one undesirable habit we adopt is one where misfortune causes us to utter, “Just My Luck.” Have you noticed the more often we say “just my luck” the more undesirable things come our way?
From personal experience I can say this, it works. When I would express “just my luck” the Universe around me would respond with more events that would cause me to exclaim “just my luck” even more. When I discovered I was drawing all these events to me, I began catching myself when I would acknowledge something that I didn’t want with an affirmation like “just my luck”. For those with a puzzled look on their face, it goes like this.
We should all be familiar with rubbing a balloon across a wool sweater. The balloon creates and absorbs a charge in the form of static electricity. When the balloon is brought close to another surface it will cling to that surface like magic. That’s also how our thoughts operate since thoughts are electromagnetic and have been measured as such by science on numerous occasions.
So here we are reacting to an event we feel ungrateful for by expressing a thought that sets up a charge that will cling to whatever is being thought of. Thus more of what is not wanted continues to be drawn into our lives. It took me decades to realize that I had been the one bringing certain events toward me just because I was thinking about them in a particular way. Once I discovered this law of attraction, I would catch myself going to express the “just my luck” statement of approval of an undesired event and was able to shift my beliefs.
It wasn’t easy it first. It took many, many (many) months to begin purging the urge to respond in a way that would draw even more undesirable toward me. It also took me a long time to stop beating myself up when I would “fail” by voicing that statement aloud. But as time moved forward I would catch myself saying “just my…” then eventually shortened to “Just…” and finally scaled back to “…” until the reaction was replaced by a question.
“What was that all about?”
This apparently small shift in thinking began to affect what was happening around me. The charge I was creating began to change and many of those undesired occurrences began to subside greatly. By acknowledging the event as nothing more than an experience, I was able to let go and realized I didn’t want any more of that kind of example. This change in reaction to an action didn’t eliminate all undesired events around me but I noticed the rate dropped enough that I don’t have any desire to express “just my luck” anymore. I can site an example from my own life as I shifted away from that departing mindset.
I work part-time in retail. Early on I would have to assist customers who, at times, were the most difficult people to enter my life. It took great restraint to keep my feelings hidden and I would help them as quickly as I could then send them on their way out of my area. But as I began shifting, a curious thing began happening. I hardly ever got difficult, angry customers anymore. I don’t even consider that I would have to deal with people who are so upset with their own lives that they want to share that frustration with the rest of the World. My charge changed and I don’t draw that kind of energetic charge toward me anymore. In fact the charge I attempt to carry daily might even repel their energetic charge, similar to opposite poles of magnets that repel one another.
It took time but was well worth it. From my experience I can say more positive things are now coming my way than negative. This Random Thought is being shared today for some who may find this missive and discover value in the information shared here. If you are one of those people, all the best to overcoming that habit that holds a thought process in bondage. It can be overcome and at first it may not appear anything is happening just as a frozen river appears to be unmoving. But under the surface things are happening it’s just that it takes time for the thaw to occur when action will be observed to the effort that has been put into the change desired. Don’t give up. It will happen. You’ll see.

Thoughts on Sound and Mass
- by George

I recently stumbled on an article describing a theory that sound can indeed produce mass. After reading it for a third time a Random Thought came crashing into my awareness. The following is from a recent article titled ‘We just got more evidence that sound waves really do carry mass’
“…Traditionally when we think of sound waves, we think of invisible vibrations moving weightless through the air - not carrying any mass.
That might be about to change. Physicists have just provided further evidence that particles of sound really can carry tiny amounts of mass. And that means they can produce their own gravitational fields - which could be a big deal for our understanding of space.
But let's back up for a second and go back to the basics. Kick a ball, and you put energy into it. Einstein would tell you you've also contributed a tiny bit of mass by making it accelerate.
If that ball is a tiny particle, and the kick is a wave of sound, you might imagine the same thing. Yet for decades, physicists have argued over whether the momentum within a surge of jiggling particles adds up to a net amount of mass…”
This might prove interesting for future ideas. If sound can produce mass as they theorize, can sound be recorded into a recording device, say through a sound card of a computer, and stored on a storage device to be played back later? Does this theory also come into play that the same mass will reemerge again from a loudspeaker?
Now, if this proves true then perhaps we can say that the sound being transmitted, by say FM Radio, can also convert mass into radio frequency energy and reconvert the sound back into mass again?
Again, if this can or does happen, can we presume that something such as a Star Trek Transporter can actually work converting mass into radio and back to mass again? Rumors circulate that this type of action, ‘transmitting’ mass across open space, has already been done with small, simple non-biologic objects.
Could future Humans ‘beam’ across space as illustrated in Star Trek? This could finally be a solution to long lines at the TSA checkpoint in airports. We can just ‘beam’ to that warm tropical beach in the dead of winter and return all in the same day.
I guess only time will tell…
My Driveway Tells of Change
- by George

I’m different somehow. But I don’t look different. I feel things differently. But I don’t feel differently, not really.
Change has happened but it has happened at a rate that allowed me to accept what was occurring without fear. Gradual it was over many years but as I gazed out the window today I noticed my driveway. There was still a lot of snow and ice covering a lot of places on the pavement. And I wasn’t becoming apoplectic about it. This caused me to begin a short self-reflection of where I am now.
You see, ten years ago I would have been out there with a sturdy shovel scraping and chopping the frozen enemy from my asphalt. None would remain. I had to have the cleanest parking spots of anyone along my street. After all, it was the rule to be as thorough as Humanly possible. That’s what I was conditioned to believe. Then I wondered – by whom? Is being so utterly anal the actual essence of being a proper Human or was there another option?
Where we have evolved to today displays every indicator of how our World is been ever changing even though there are those who would have you believe otherwise. There were supposed to be various boxes and depending on whom you wanted to be, you would choose one of those boxes, climb in and stay there. This way you would fit in with a group you wished to be like and the rest of your life would be happily ever after. Or not.
This is where it oftentimes begins not to make sense. You made your choice and settled into you chosen box. Your life continued onward. But as you peered out of your protective box you observed others who appeared not to be constrained by any structure. This of course began a lifelong relationship with Judgement. Often that judgement leads to disease, caused by the added stresses from the behavior that doesn’t match your own – and it’s judged to be wrong. After all, it doesn’t match the rules of the box you chose so long ago and it’s just not right…
I too fell for the box choosing paradigm. There were behaviors of others that just weren’t correct, they didn’t comply with the behavior manual that came along with the box. We all got one, that manual that accompanied our box written on a stone tablet never to be changed – ever. Then change happened.
It was slow at first to allow for beliefs to be examined, cognized and understood. That’s when, for me, I had discovered that many, many of my beliefs weren’t even my own but had been placed there by others all vying for my allegiance to their beliefs in order to give credibility to their System. This allowed them to feel good about themselves, that they were right and anyone who didn’t believe their System was wrong – totally wrong. That was the dilemma I faced.
When I began questioning beliefs I had carried for decades and began discovering that many of them were flawed, many extremely flawed, I began digging deeper into a belief system I thought I could trust. And there lies the crux of the systems available. All of them are right. That is, they are right for those who subscribe to a particular belief system. And of course everyone else is wrong and sometimes so wrong they must be killed because their system doesn’t match your system and therefore must be destroyed.
When I began discovering the insanity of the paradigms we were literally ordered to believe, it made it easier to identify beliefs that no longer served in my best interest any longer. The tables have turned, as they have always been turning but instead they have turned to a place they have never turned before. This angers many people who still cling to belief systems instituted two thousand and even three thousand years ago. Consider this, do you still use a rotary dial telephone or an old Royal typewriter when you need to send a message? Are you still enjoying your favorite television shows in glorious black and white? Do you follow the rules when traveling cross country on the train like a good believer? Of course not. This begs the question, “Why are we still following belief systems instilled during times when we still used magneto crank telephones, horse drawn buggies and messages by telegraph?” Or even further in the past…
I had discovered too many ‘systems’ I had bought into were outdated, some even on the day I bought into them. This lead to a decade or more of searching for truth to what is - and what isn’t. This caused fearful people to judge and ridicule my actions, words and beliefs – or lack of beliefs. As was stated before, I discovered that as Humans coming into this lifetime we arrived with absolutely no beliefs what-so-ever. We arrived with only Feelings. We felt hungry, we felt cold, we felt loved. Only feelings, nothing more. Then gradually over time as we observed the World around us we discovered life was easier if we fit in with those around us and began buying into their behaviors and beliefs just as they had done before me.
But it’s well time for us, as Humans, to begin acknowledging that we were unknowingly duped. Many people actually know they were duped but are suppressing that knowing and instead are displaying anger and hatred toward those who have openly awakened from the system of suppression Humanity has been under for centuries. They are following their Feelings as they discard their beliefs. This could be a difficult idea for some but with some heroic digging they too can find the understanding in this concept.
So, my driveway is a mess. And you know what? It truly doesn’t matter anymore…
