Beyond The Looking Glass - Words of the Unseen - Chapter 140

Beyond The Looking Glass is the second book in the Unseen series, a story that came to me from the other side. A story where I thought I was just the narrator until I heard the Words of the Unseen.
This second story goes beyond time and place and mixes the long ago with the here and now. Because history keeps repeating, until we learn and do something about it.
Beyond The Looking Glass - Words of the Unseen - Chapter 140
Which also is kind of confusing, as I am so used to working hard for years to see any results, but this road to abundance just started handing out gifts a week after I mindfully followed it day after day.
Based on the math, I can make the down payment at the start of my new life. Which is absolutely fabulous, but at the same time, there is this nagging voice that I can do so much more.
That I would limit myself by thinking that is the only way, that there are ways beyond the grey brick road of human realism.
If I build, it will come. And I do not have to use bricks and mortar.
I can build it, and with the right focus, it will materialize just as I made myself appear in that DJ booth, although to be honest, I still have no clue how I did that.
Then again, what does it matter that is in the past, and that mission is completed. This next one just started, and I am picking its fruits already.
Me trying to rewire myself, to open up abundance and stop limiting myself has given me some fun insights already.
But the weirdest must be that I turned down selling the rights to my first book before I even got an offer.
I thought about materializing someone who would like to buy the rights to my first book, by writing about him/her in my second book, and then I asked chat.
A first-time author signs a deal:
- $5,000 advance
- 10% royalty on a $20 hardcover = $2/book
- Needs to sell 2,500 copies to start earning royalties beyond the advance
Thanks, Chat, you just single-handedly, without even having arms, destroyed my dream.
And yes, there are many more scenarios, and I might end up with the double if all stars align, but I just had a slightly bigger number in mind.
Which does not take away that I would love someone to be interested in publishing my first book, even if itยดs only because they like this one so much.
It will just not be the answer to my dream big wish...or is it a whisper?
Whatever it is, I think what chat has been programmed to tell me is that I can not control the abundance I am learning to open up to.
Selling something that holds serious value for me, and possibly my future wealth, for a 5.000 Euro advance??
It all of a sudden feels like selling myself short, as if patience will bring me a lot more.
Before I consciously started trying to stop limiting myself by scarcity and lack of gratitude, it seemed like a good idea. And it still does, but I feel that materializing the sell would be creating another limitation.
Instead, I should connect with abundance and see where it takes me instead of controlling it. Weir, but even after such a short time, I am noticing changes.
At best, it feels like I am a slightly less old, angry white man, and the happy-go-lucky boy I used to be, who had faith's blessings, seems to have at least a pulse again.
And I am stuck in the middle with myself, because I do not want to be any of the two. Which, as you already expected, raises the question: Who am I...nah, just kidding "Who Do I Want To Be?"
As a boy, I naively believed I could help make the world better.
Over time, watching the human primate in action, how they are driven by fear, greed, herd instincts, and desperate mating rituals, cured me of that illusion.
What could have been something noble is instead a tragic parody, and somewhere along the way, I turned my back on my own species.
Years I have been mocking in the shadows, unwilling to join in this dance of baboons.
Donยดt get me wrong, I am still not putting on my dancing shoes, even though I think life is hinting at the fact I should.
By rigorously excluding all, I protected myself from the disillusionment, but it did not make me any more useful than the rest.
If you are not part of the solution....
Do I want to be part of the solution?
I have been slow to open my eyes, to not only see the limitations, but also the possibilities, and the beauty that lies in this species.
Yes, that was a shock for me, but in all honesty, itยดs what I want to be.
To take those who are willing by the hand and show them Wonderland, a world of possibilities. A place where they can find space and time to learn & share the(ir) manual.
