I Knew I Loved You Before I Met You...

I have exerted way too much energy to not finding love, not trusting others, and not trusting myself. I am tired of focusing on what I don’t want. I know what I want, so I am going to focus on the "WANT,” not on the “don’t want.”  Last night I spent some quiet time reflecting and manifesting true, real, magical love. While doing this, I located on Pandora a station of Love Songs. This morning as I was making coffee, listening to this station, and manifesting this magical, empowering, true love, I heard it! I heard the song that will be the center of this manifestation. It is Savage Garden’s “I Knew I Loved You."


Before leaving for Colorado my mom and I had a discussion about the future of my love life. Her exact words to me were: “I know he is out there, Erin. You just haven’t met him yet.” At the time I wasn’t too sure about that. A huge part of me was convinced that I had met him, and I was preparing myself to seek out that love affair. Now more than ever, I am convinced that I haven’t met him, yet I feel him stronger than I have ever felt anything. I know he is out there: this magnificent stranger searching for me, wanting to love me the way I want to be loved. I feel love that I haven’t felt in a long time. I know it sounds crazy, but it’s too powerful to disregard as nothing. I am in love with an incredible man, and he is the missing piece that I am searching for; I just have to find him. From this moment on, I am focusing my energy and being to finding this great love that is out there waiting for me.  And, it will be the most magical, captivating, strong, undying love ever known. <3

It's different this time, and I'm excited!!!

It's different this time...

Until recently I believed that all of my moves over the past year and a half have shared the same common denominator: I was running away from something. I've spent a lot of time lately reflecting on this, and during this time of reflection, my perception of these moves has changed. Before, all of that moving was based on getting away: away from hurtful memories, failed relationships, broken hearts, unfaithful friends...away from failing. My focus was on all of the things that I couldn't handle or control (or didn't believe I could handle and control)- the "failures," the obstacles that hurt me, the negative things that were happening in my life. I lived in fear that these things would ultimately break me, so I would leave before I broke. While focusing on these negatives and by moving away from them rather than embracing them and learning/growing from them, I was constantly setting myself up for disappointment and disaster. 

When I change my focus and perception of these moves and why I moved, it becomes clear that many successes have come from them (and continue to come from them). All of the moves (and falls that come with them) HAVE made me stronger and more determined to keep moving forward and achieve a life of ultimate success, love, and happiness. I still struggle sometimes to stay focused on the positives and the growth, but I am at least aware of it and can take those steps needed to make the best out of it all.

This move to Colorado IS different. I didn't move here to get away; I moved here to get ahead- to move towards a life of greatness and success. I moved here to turn my dreams into reality
(which I am doing), to learn and to grow. I moved here to move onward... to happiness, success, love, powerful & stronger relationships- toward the life of greatness that I deserve and will ultimately achieve. I am taking all of the life lessons that I have learned (and continue to learn) along the way, and I'm creating my reality. I am embracing the "failures" that will happen and will only succeed because of them. :)
