From Sara, Book 3 A Talking Owl Is Worth A Thousand Words The Sara Series by Esther and Jerry Hicks
Sara knew what Solomon meant about matches. She had had many conversations with him about that. She remembered how Solomon had explained about Law of Attraction, and bird of a feather flocking together.
In other words, Sara, if you are experiencing a very strong felling that does not feel good to you, like fear or anger or jealousy or guilt, or blame…those feelings mean that you are thinking about something that matters very much to you–but that the thoughts that you are having are not a match to what you really want.
Sara listened.
However, when you are experiencing a very strong feeling that feels good to you, like love or appreciation or joy, or eagerness… those feelings mean that you are thinking about something that matters very much to you–and, in this moment, the thoughts that you are having ARE a match to what you really want.
Negative emotion is not a bad thing, Sara. It helps you to recognize what you are doing with your thoughts. You don’t think it is wrong when your sensitive fingertips tell you that the stove is hot. That sensitivity save your fingers from being damaged. And negative emotion is a similar indicator. It just let you know that to stay focused longer upon this thought that doesn’t feel good, really isn’t good for you.
