Manifesting Hot Air Balloons

In my early twenties I worked for a hair salon that offered a sales contest each year to win a trip to Lake Powell. 

I like a good challenge/competition and, I wanted the prize. 

I'd been reading Shakti Gawain's "Creative Visualization: Use the Power of Your Imagination to Create What You Want in Your Life" and decided to create a little visualization to do before each work shift. 

I'd simply take a few moments in the parking lot to visualize my money goal in the basket of a pink hot air balloon, with pink ribbons trailing floating up to the sky.

I'd let go of actively thinking about it, hop out of my car and walk into work.

A few months later they announced that I was one of the winners of the contest.

I felt elated.

Then I was told that the trip to Lake Powell was not possible this year. 

Guess what they replaced it with? 

A hot air balloon ride.

I've been manifesting hot air balloons ever since. 

They are a delightful reminder of the power of our thoughts and intentions and....

What is possible in this beautiful universe.
