Mine is in my closet, so I see it every day when I get dressed and before bed (hamper is in there)

Mine is on my computer wallpaper -- I photographed each section separately and the whole map and the images rotate randomly.

transformed - i LOVE the bathroom idea! we have our toilet in a separate room - it would be perfect in there!!

i had mine in my exercise room - on the side of treadmill...thinking i'd be on it all the time. well i wasn't and i forgot it was there! i just started using the treadmill again and after i was done i happened to glance to my side and i noticed the tm - so i had done my run without even glancing over once! so needless to say - that is NOT the best place for my map................lol

i really need to refocus on it - so far nothing is manifesting - but i have noone to blame but myself.

tracy - thanks for the info about watching my thoughts throughout the day....

finally - i LOVE louise hay and i have the "you can heal your life" book - it is my favorite self help book out there!

i like this idea!
post #426 of 444
Thanks!

I also did each bagua on scrapbook pages, assembled them to take a pictuer of it all together, and have the originals in a scrapbook, with blank sheets on facing pages. Every new moon, I've been reading over the map, making notes on the facing pages of what is moving or not, specific affirmations for that month. I've added a few things to the map pages too.

I really enjoy the way this document is evolving for me. It is going to end up being a kind of journal of my year as well as a treasure map.

OMGs, I have been meaning to post. The way the Universe chose to interpret one part of my map, and the manifestation as a result, is nothing short of truly amazing. TRULY amazing.

The story is basically this: I have been a single mama, and pretty well alone, since ds was born (2001). I have had a couple of dates, but nothing to write home about, and mostly stopped bothering. I had my ds late; I was 41 when he was born. I thought I was destined to die alone and celibate, like my grandmother, who I resemble in many ways.
I don't want to be alone, but I'm 50 now, and don't have time to waste on bulldoody, kwim? I didn't want to just pick up someone for the sake of sex, so I went without, but I wasn't sure I wanted the baggage of a relationship either. Nor did I want to pursue or put the energy into finding a relationship.
Basically, I wanted someone...but I didn't want anybody.
I put things in the relationship portion of my map for the last 3 years, but nothing ever came of it.
This year, I found a little one-liner in a magazine, and thought it was cool because it had my name on it, so I stuck it on there.
It said "and Pam asked for love, and the Universe said Yes".

Well.
Nobody calls me Pam, except my family of origin and people that knew me before the age of 17.

So...this summer, on Facebook, I found my high school sweetheart. He and I dated when I was 14 and he was 17. Then again for a time when I was 15 and he was 18.
And he's single. And he's been celibate for years, too. And he's been in love with me all these years. And I have had feelings for him, too, but never let myself recognize it.

So...we are an item again! He lives 837 miles away, and we can't physically be together for 2 years or more, but we're head over heels in love and we'll be married, someday.

Talk about freaking amazing Oh-- and he's the only one in my present life that calls me Pam. Because he knew me as that, back then

Maiasaura - that is an amazing story! Gave me goosebumps!!!!
post #431 of 444
Maiasuara - That is really cool. IIRC, you mentioned this particular part of your map after making it. So cool how it manifested!

My map has been manifesting in interesting ways. It's my first year doing one. I am transitioning into being a single parent and focused heavily on abundance. Since my LO is a toddler I wanted the kind of abundance that would allow me to spend as much time as possible with her, although I didn't specify it that way. I also needed to find a new, safe home. Well, much of the year has been rough, and at times it seemed like there was little progress being made, and at times it seemed like I might not get any of what I wanted. But in the last 2 months I have been qualified for a healthy monthly payment and a Sec 8 voucher. This might sound poor to some, but I get to stay home with DD, and I can afford everything we need as well as some fun wants. We are really comfortable. It's a great place for us right now. I received my Sec 8 voucher in the morning, and 4 hours later I looked at the apartment I am now living in. It had been vacant for 2 months and they had finally listed it on Craigslist. I beat the first applicant from CL by 1 hour. It was the only place I looked at, and I only found out about it because of this person from an organization who's been helping me since April. It's nice, almost brand new, and in a good part of town. I was having problems getting an organization to pay the deposit (they were out of funds they said), so another organization that has been working with me stepped in and spoke up for me. So this place that was out of funds magically had the funds to help me suddenly. Then about 3 weeks later my compensation approval came through and it was more than I thought it was going to be when I applied. I'm still living just barely above poverty level according to gov't standards, but as far as I am concerned we are living *almost* like we are making $100k a year. And really abundance is all in ones perception. So I am very grateful. I am going to make one for sure in 2010!

eta: The compensation I am receiving I didn't even know I was qualified for when I made the TM. Just another part of the miracle.

I may have mentioned it when I made the map. It is truly amazing, isn't it?

Yours sounds pretty awesome, too! I'm getting right scared of my manifesting ability, after this year I am afraid to make one for next time, omg!

By the way-- the quote from the magazine was exactly like I posted here. It had "Pam" in italics, and "Yes" with a capital Y. So it was like...the Universe heard the Pam-ness of the request, more than any other part of it

Pam,
That story is amazing which I know is an overused word but in your case it is accurate.
I'm kind of speechless.
And that is rare indeed.

I'm impressed.

hugs

Pam, your story gave me the best feeling! Thanks so much for sharing it!
post #435 of 444
That is so beautiful Maiasaura!
post #436 of 444
Great and inspiring stories everyone. I'm so happy for y'all!
This year was the first year I made a map. It has blown me away. Every single thing I put on it has had movement. Most all things have come true and then some. In fact, it's almost uncanny! I have had moments of thinking that I really need to be very selective and careful what I put on my map because it has all come true. And of course there are some things that I realized I didn't want so much after all. I am very much looking forward to making a map in 2010. I am already thinking about it and I will really put a lot of time and effort into and as I mentioned be very careful about what I "wish" for.
Thanks for this thread every year Tracy. Can't wait to join the 2010 map quest!

YES!! That, exactly.

Thank you all for your support-- yes, Tracy, it is a rare thing indeed, and he and I both are determined to remain in abject awe, and never take this for granted. We realize we have been given a rare gift and are in utter amazement.

Yes, takebirthback, what you said. Selective and careful. I have been a manifesting fool this year and it's right scary sometimes One thing I have learned, this year, if nothing else, is complete and utter gratitude. I fall down every day in thanks for what I have been given, with my relationship.
post #438 of 444
Wow that really is awesome manifestation.

My map has been slow this year and I think I over thought it out when I made it. I wanted to achieve a certain look of the actual map and not necessarily what it would manifest. The parts that are more dear to me are represented in a vague way.
I still have hope for it, but am anxious for the 2010 map.

Me too! Grateful everyday!

My map feels like a bust to me right now. However, I am willing to believe that it has more to do with my bad attitude and perspective than on reality. I look at it every day with cynicism and resignation. How can I manifest anything when I don't believe any of it can work out? It seems like things are really stuck and that's how I see my map...stuck.
