I Loved Someone That Didn't Love Me
Here's the thing. I put up a website, www.askingtheuniverse.net (might as well get in a plug, ha!), and I asked the Universe how to best get the word out. The Universe said "Ask your friends". Well, not in so many words, but you know what I mean. So I asked my friends and they said "You need a Twitter account and a Facebook page." Great! I got those things rolling and then asked the Universe again how to get the word out even more. Here's what happened...
For days and days I was online going from forum to forum, looking for like-minded people. It wasn't as easy as I thought it would be. Most forums were off-topic and the ones I liked had so many hoops to jump through that my positive energy was taking a serious beating.
That's the point I was at this morning when I asked the Universe again. A little while later I'm sitting at my computer and my son walks in. He wondered what I was doing. I explained how frustrated I felt putting in so much work and reaching so few like-minded people. He took one look at the forum I was on and said, "Dad, this forum is basically like Facebook. Why don't you just use the Facebook account you set up for finding the right groups?"
It was one of those "Duh" moments. I've been so busy setting everything up and getting it all to work that I couldn't see the forest for the trees. Now some of you might say "That wasn't the Universe, that was just life." I say, I might have gone weeks before this realization hit me. And those weeks would not have been very joyous. I say the Universe, my Universe, came through.
The Universe is ready. Just ask!
