4 REASONS I DON'T BELIEVE IN THE LAW OF ATTRACTION

4 REASONS I DON'T BELIEVE IN THE LAW OF ATTRACTION


By alwayswellwithin.com - Sandra Pawula

Some of my friends online and off are advocates of the Law of Attraction.  They are the sweetest of people who truly wish the best for themselves and others.  From this perspective, I think their philosophy bring wonders of positivity to our world.
There are, however, a few sticking points that keep me from abiding comfortably with the Law of Attraction.  Ways in which it might lead you astray.  Here’s what I think.
1.  It seems to encourage you to desire possessions, and positive circumstances.
Life is constantly changing.  There are periods of gain and periods of loss.  When we learn to accept this cycle gracefully, we come to see that genuine happiness comes from within, and doesn’t depend on the externals of life.

Desire, on the other hand, is like drinking salt water.  It just makes you thirst for more.  Then, if it doesn’t manifest, disappointment, discouragement, and even shame may result.
“What is born will die,
What has been gathered will be dispresed,
What has been accumulated will be exhausted,
What has been built up will collapse,
And what has been high will be brought low.”
When you understand the fluid nature of reality, you can open to the richness in each moment instead of hankering after something else.
