“Now is the time to become what you desire to be. Raise your vibrational polarity and draw your desires closer to you. View yourself within the content of the big final picture of your dreams and the universe will work in your favor to achieve it. Be emotionaly attached to your desires and manifest your dreams into reality. Want it with pure desire from your emotions and not your mind. The thought of mind is the killer of desire of the heart. Become what you want to be within your heart now before the shift, for after the shift you will be able to embrace what you most desire to have, and to be.”
