Cindy’s manifestation journey

A life changing little black book

By MysticPublished 5 years ago 7 min read

Although Cindy has beauty, confidence and determination she was raised with a lack of money, support, and guidance in her life. Her only New Year’s resolution for 2021 is to be more punctual with important appointments and events in her life. One of her closes friends Laura suggested that she should invest in an agenda or notebook, she felt it would be a great way to keep her affairs in order. Cindy agreed and decided to research a few options that very night. She preferred notebooks over agendas because agendas were similar to the calendars she already had which lacked the space she needed to fit her busy schedule in an entire section, notebooks have larger pages which were perfect for the space she required. As she googled best notebook brands she came across a company called Moleskine. After viewing their website she chose to purchase their notebook mainly because they are made with environmentally friendly acid-free paper and because they have the FSC stamp with stands for “the mark of responsible forestry“ according to the about us section on their website. She absolutely adored that aspect of the company in which she took pride in. At first her only purpose for purchasing her new Moleskine black notebook was to keep organized, because anyone who truly knew her knows how much help she needed to do that. However shortly after she bought the book she began to realize that it was going to be one of the most important life changing objects she has ever possessed.

As she opened her new black notebook she smiled at the front page feature that indicated “In case of loss notice to record your name and a prize of your choice for anyone who returns your notebook “. She absolutely loved the considerate thought of the notebook designer who included that very essential feature, as well as the cute matching bookmark ribbon and rounded page corners to protect her notes while she was on the go. Even though she did not intend on losing her new book lords knows she’d lose her head if it wasn’t attached to her body that’s just the type of luck she had. Initially she intended to coordinate the events of her day and future days, but of course this notebook became more than just her organizer. It became a place where she could elaborate on her ideas, feelings, thoughts and even her deepest desires. Even though she did not consider herself an artist or writer she felt that carrying this little black book around suddenly made her feel poetic, if you asked her she was quite impressed at the words that began to flow as she wrote to pass time while riding the TTC bus transportation in her city.

One evening after scrolling her Instagram page while she waited for the bus, she came across a page that spoke about manifestations and how writing down and reciting your desires/ wants on a daily basis somehow helps you to achieve them quicker than allowing thoughts about them to come and go. She figured she should give it a try after all what did she have to lose? At first to start she wrote down a minor desire just to test the waters and boost her confidence as well as her beliefs regarding manifesting things she wanted. The first thing she desired was a call from her father which whom she reconnected with several years before but still unfortunately did not have a bond or relationship with. She thought if she was going to dive into this manifestation thing she might as well start small to avoid disappointments. As she wrote down her first desire she began to feel anxious as she recited it 3 times as instructed on the Instagram manifestation page. Apart of her felt silly for even thinking of something that seemed so superstitious but, the other part of her felt desperate to receive the love and bond she yearned for from her father.

As the bus driver approached her stop her phone rang and to her surprise it was her father, she paused and took a deep breath before answering. She then indulged in the most wonderful heart felt conversation she has ever had with her father as she walked home from the bus stop, even after she arrived home they spoke for about another 2 hours before ending their call. She sat there in awe she wondered if that call was just a coincidence or, was it was indeed encouraged by what she wrote in this notebook which she now perceived to be so mysterious. There was only one way she was going to find out so she opened up the book and started to jot down her second desire with hopes that it would manifest just as quick as the first one did. She desired a call back from the collection agency company she had been applying to for a few months, as she finished reciting her second desire she waited anxiously staring at her cell phone as she went about her evening. Unfortunately she did not receive a call back as quickly as she received the call from her father earlier so she decided to sleep on it.

As she woke in the morning to her surprise she received an email from that very collection agency which stated they would like to have her in for a formal interview at 3pm that day. After the interview she was congratulated with a badge that gave her access to the building and a full week schedule to begin work the following Monday. She was stunned she didn’t know whether she should cry at the thought of not trying this earlier or dance and shout as hard as she could because it seemed to be working so well. All she knew was that any sceptical thought she had the day before was completely dissolved. She sat there staring at the notebook in her book bag for the remainder of her way home.

As she arrived at home she decided that it was time to go big, she figured why not if the two small desires she wrote yesterday manifested so rapidly why not write down something big to see where it goes. So she figured her third desire should be about money since she so desperately needed some due to her late rent and overdue bill notices piling up on her kitchen table. She wrote that she desired to find a bag of money particularly $20,000 dollars she felt that 20 grand would be enough money to change her current financial circumstances, she would be able to pay her rent and bills on time as well as help her mother with her medical and hospital bills.

As she recited her desire 3 times she became emotional at the thought of manifesting it, although she wanted to remain humble she could not escape the overwhelming feeling of joy she felt as she thought about finding a bag filled with as much money as $20000 dollars. She became obsessed with the thought and feeling, that’s all she thought about for the rest of the weekend as she kept her eyes, peeled meanwhile continuing on her normal routines. As Monday arrived filled with anxiety and excitement she must have recited the desire about 27 times and 3 more that morning on her way to her new job.

The moment she entered the work place building she was very attentive to every area that looked as if a bag of money could be stashed there. As her day came to an end she felt a little disappointed that she did not come across the money while at work, in the back of her mind she wondered if the desire was too big or impossible to manifest. As quick as her doubt came is as quick as she allowed it to leave her mind, she stood at the bus stop staring at the words in her notebook before the bus arrived.

She entered the bus and proceeded to walk towards the back up to the window spot she always preferred to sit in, the moment she sat down and got comfortable she felt something pressing against her feet. Pausing before she bent over to take a look she instantly got emotional, before she knew it she pulled the bag of filled with stacks of $100 dollar bills from underneath her seat. She did not dare to count the money on a bus filled with strangers but there was doubt in her mind that it was indeed the $20,000 she manifested. Sitting there with the bag of money she felt an overwhelming sense of gratitude and joy, she sat there in silence holding her notebook under her right arm and the bag of money in her left hand for the rest of her journey home.

The moment she stepped inside her tiny apartment her feet felt like they couldn’t move any further she collapsed at the door as she wept over her new found fortune, she then finally came to her senses and found the strength to move from her front door and slowly walk over to her kitchen. As she emptied the money onto her kitchen table she noticed that her notebook was nowhere to be found, she frantically searched around for it before realizing that she heard something fall as she stood up to leave her seat on the bus. Immediately she frantically started calling the TTC bus company trying to track down the buses that drove along the route she took home but unfortunately she had no luck. Filled with mixed emotions about finding the money but losing her book, Cindy decided that she should dwell on the fact that she can use the money to change her financial situation.

Even though she was aware that she could easily purchase another notebook there was something about the one she had that made her feel a strange connection and attachment to it. In the meanwhile she sat by her phone hoping that someone found her book and decided to call her utilizing the front page where she left her contact information. Torn between joy and sadness there was nothing left for Cindy to do but count her money and await the call that would join her and her lucky, magical and mysterious black notebook again!
