Bargaining with the Universe

What happens if you don't complete your part?

Desperate times call for desperate measures - is something I have heard very often.  And, when people are desperately ill or in real dire straights, they will often make a bargain with the Universe.

As a general rule, when these things happen, our first thoughts are why is this happening to me?  What have I done to deserve this?  Well, there is no easy answer - it can be a myriad of things - there is no one size fits all.

But at the time when we try to work it out - everything is just a blur and clouded over with logical thoughts.

It could of course be something you agreed to experience before you landed on this planet.  It could be something in your subconscious beliefs that make you feel you deserve to have whatever it is. It could result from choices you have made or indeed have not made.

But does it really matter how you arrived at this point - the fact is that you have and now you have to make some changes!

Those changes may include healthier diets, more exercise, lifestyle changes, improving your finances etc.  But more often than not there is a plan for the future.

The message is sent to the Higher Beings, your Guides and your Helpers that if you get through this challenge you will.................................Perhaps you agree to always eat healthier, change your lifestyle, be friends with your enemies, become more spiritual, meditate every day, go to church daily - the bargaining can be anything.

But what happens if once you have made that bargain, and your life improves in the way you wanted it to, then you don't do the things you promised?  

Like New Year Resolutions, when things change for the better, your side of the bargain seems to get lost, forgotten, ignored.  It no longer holds a place in your reality.

Now I have to confess I have no idea what happens if you simply change your mind!  Is it like a human contractual agreement that you shouldn't break?  We know that there are no 'punishing Higher Beings' so we don't have to worry about that.  

But isn't it really a case that you are letting yourself down rather than a Higher Being?  Isn't the bargain actually with your own Higher Self and in not adhering to that bargain, you are actually letting yourself down?  If at the point of desperation you wanted to do this or that and it was important to you, and now that you are no longer in a desperate state its of no importance, aren't you falling back into the same space as you were in before your life wasn't what you wanted?

Have you made a bargain with the Universe and not completed your part?  How would your current life be, if you had kept your promise I wonder.  

Certainly something to think about particularly when things aren't going that well.
