Think...

Have you got the habit of hoarding useless objects, thinking that one day, who knows when, you may need them?

Have you got the habit of accumulating money, and not spending it because you think that in the future you may be in want of it?

Have you got the habit of storing clothes, shoes, furniture, utensils and other home supplies that you haven't used already for some time?

And inside yourself...Have you got the habit to keep reproaches, resentment, sadness, fears and more?

DON'T DO IT! You are going against your prosperity.

It is necessary to make room, to leave an empty space in order to allow new things to come into your life.

It is necessary that you get rid of all the useless things that are in you and in your life, in order for prosperity to arrive.

The force of this emptiness is one that will absorb and attract all that you wish.

As long as you are, materially or emotionally, holding old and useless feelings, you won't have room for new opportunities.

Goods must circulate...Clean your drawers, the wardrobe, the workshop, the garage...

Give away what you don't use any longer...

The attitude of keeping a heap of useless stuff ties your life down.

It's not the objects you keep that stagnate your life...
but rather the attitude of keeping...

When we keep in store, we consider the possibility of wanting, of penury.

We believe that tomorrow it may lack, and that we won't be able to fulfill those necessities.

With that idea, you are sending two messages to your brain and to your life:
That you don't trust tomorrow...
and you think that the new and the better are not for you.

For this reason, you cheer yourself up by storing old and useless stuff.
Get rid of what lost it's color and brightness...
Let the new enter your home...
and yourself

May prosperity and peace reach you soon...

Was given to me via E-mail from a (ex) colleague.. Prob quite some time ago just that I had been busy with handing over etc and did not open it till the wee hours of today where I suddenly woke up and decided to clear some mails. 

It's been 2 days already and I'm still setting up my own internal system (other than the laptop and mobile)... Trying hard to adjust myself I guess. Especially with the waking up.. I just keep waking up at that specified time.   And today, while using my MSN halfway, this thought suddenly arose inside me that I had to share with CL. This thought that though I wanted the change to make myself busy so that I will not check his MSN status anymore... truth is I no longer am able to check it out because I was instructed to use the company's email to apply a MSN Live ID. Thus I'm switching to that in the day already.. as for the night, I tend to sleep early to really go online already...

Somehow.. a part of me is forgetting him due to the bustle of life... but as I told CL, I still hope to hold on to a wisp... for reason that she understand too...
