Manifesting or Blessings?; Things Coming to Fruition
I am watching the life I want unfold before my eyes.
Though they may be little things put together, they are still showing me that my big asks will come true with time.
I have been really focusing in on my routines reflecting the life I want to live, and having that life unfold in time. There are still some areas I need clarity and confidence in, but if I leave the space to let the Universe fill it in, (and trust it will do so) I know it will all be worked out in the end.
So, what has found me in 2025?
I have desperately wanted my own reading nook for as long as I could remember. Our home is the perfect size for our small family and exactly what we needed as first time home buyers. I am extremely grateful for what this home has given us, but at the same time I know it is okay to want more.
My early morning readings are something I take very seriously. They recharge me and give me the mental clarity I need to start my day. I enjoy reading in bed, but on days that my husband doesn’t get up early, I find it hard to be motivated to wake up. It’s not easy watching someone else sleep at 5:00am when you are trying to wake up!
I then think about having to drag all my books downstairs so I don’t wake him up with the light, and then lugging back up later on. Yes, that is a chore because of the stack of things I do in the morning: bible study, journal, and personal development read\ note taking. It’s a decent size stack.
The days that the baby kept me up at night, I would find myself falling back asleep because my bed is so inviting.
The month of December, I liked reading and soaking up the Christmas spirit downstairs. However, now that it’s gone, it’s not as inviting downstairs on the couch.
When the decorations were put away, that is when I started to really think about how I can’t wait for my reading nook- hoping one day in the near future we will move to a home with one for me.
A place to call my own. Where I didn’t have to lug my books around, or interrupt someone else. It was cozy and it was mine.
I started journaling about what it would be like to use my new reading nook.

A few days after starting my nook-corner vision-work, without real planning, I got my space. My mom agreed how empty the corner of the room looked without something there, so we went to look at chairs.
I couldn’t believe how quickly something so simple came into my life after imaging it in my life. I know it sounds silly, and if I really wanted a chair, yes I could have went out and bought it.
The thing is, I was prepared to wait until we moved to receive it. I was picturing a new home and a new space and how I would treat it. I could imagine it and see it. I was at peace waiting for the perfect space.
However, I was granted one early and truly unexpectedly. I am very grateful for my little reading nook downstairs.
Just as I wrote in my journal, my space in waiting for me when I wake up. I don’t interrupt anyone. My books are waiting for me without having to move them from spot to spot. I light my candle, turn the fire on, and sit in my new chair.
This experience has me thinking about the other things I write in my journal.
The chair is not the only thing I have thought about in the month of January. I write about all my goals for 2025, or the next five years. I pick one thing to focus on and envision during my morning quiet time.
Reflecting now, there are more small things that have come into fruition this last month.
And it just has me wondering, if I can get these small things to come to me, that just means my big goals are on the horizon too.
I will continue to do what I am doing, asking for what I want in life, or direction and clarity on where I am meant to be.
Other things I brought into existence were:
The promises to myself to make more time for connecting with new friends. Two weeks in a row I received invites for a coffee date from women that I am beginning to form better friendships with.
Growing my social media following and reach.
Direction in my career path and more dedication to writing.
Clarity on our journey with Bodhi and preschool.
My Step-Dad to find a job in town so my mom doesn’t have to leave.
