My first problem was actually focusing while meditating/spend time with God. Now, I can't even find a time to do it.

I have only meditated twice this week. My goal was for everyday only for 10 min. Yet, I came nowhere close. I'm thankful for the 10 min that I did get in that is better than nothing.

It seems like there is so much preventing me from sitting down and focusing. I either have work to do, to sleepy, to busy doing this, or to busy doing that. I literally have to fight for time to focus in on God and meditate.

• Friends who like talk back at movies- I think it makes the movie experience way more fun.
  
• cup of noodles-Despite the fact that I'm trying to go raw. They are still tasty.
  
• postcards- Recently, I've been writing postcards to my friends to let them know I still miss them. I think I had more fun making them then they would receive them. It brighten my day so much.
  
• Friends in general-It's homecoming and while many of my peers decided to go to coronation ball, I didn't.
• inspirational blogs- Whenever I'm down, bored, or upset, I go to Gala Darling's blog.

Yes, I'm bringing them back. Those lovely weekly resolutions. Here they are:

• Set up a studying schedule- I just want to get a better learning experience out of college than I am getting now and I believe this will help.
  

• meditate for 10 min a day
  

• eat more raw food- I'm no where near as healthy I would like to be and I really need to do something about it. On top of that I have new twilight shirt that I want to fit into by the movie release, my mother and I are in competition to see who loses the most weight, and I plan to participate in a triathlon in 10 yrs. Yea, I need to get to work.

How does a Christian, someone who is living their Highest truth/though (as in Conversations with God), or someone who's attracting all that is good (as in The Secret) live? On a moment by moment basis what are they thinking? With every action what is their motive? How do they feel?

Meditation is hard. It's especially hard when you're trying to meditate while laying down in a sleeping-like position. Because you're too afraid your roommate will wake up to see you randomly criss-cross applesauce in the middle of the room chanting and thinks you're a nut case, which was my case this morning.

For awhile I was thinking, and not meditating, it doesn't matter what she thinks. This is about my mental health and I should get up to meditate properly. Nevertheless, I laid there trying to meditate.

Once I got over that problem, there was the situation of how I should meditate. At first I did the usual focus on your breath and quiet your mind technique. Yet, I thought it would be a good time to use the law of attraction; therefore, I started focusing on whatI want my life to be like and started to feel grateful for it. Then my mind went on a ramble and 30 seconds later I had to bring it back to the law of attraction, but there was another problem. I started to attract to much, in my opinion, which wouldn't bring about what I really wanted the most as soon as I wanted. So, after an odd number of minutes that I didn't keep track of, I gave up for the day.

I'm not going to give up entirely. I know the power one's mind can effect their life. A really good way to perfect that power is through meditation. If anything happens tomorrow, I'll let you know. XOXO

Love,

Every night, make a list of five things you are grateful for. Continue this for a month. I'm going to do this also.
