Hello, dearest hivers; this is J once again. In this blog, I’m going to tackle whether manifestation works. Do you believe it? Or you don’t? If you are going to ask me, well, I actually do. When you do research about manifestations, it’s a theoretical, abstract feeling that occurs in reality. Wondering why I came up with this blog? Find out as you read this. Here’s why I believe in manifestation:
At first, I wasn't a believer in it. I think the manifestation is a lazy act by humans. Manifestations are something like wanting something. I have seen a lot of commons in social situations manifesting different things in life. Local celebrities also do that, and some of them prove it right. I’m neither a hater nor a believer. The first thing that I manifest is to own an iOS device. I’m a spender, but if I'm in that state of saving money, I will save as much as I can. I had manifested an iPhone. Don’t get me wrong, Android phones are actually great and durable, but as a person who is into capturing moments every time and everywhere, it’s actually a thing that I need. As you know, iPhone cameras are quality, which is why I am aiming for them.
Manifest + Save
Well, I already save every 20 peso coin because it’s beautiful to see, and the value is great if you save it. I save and save until I save almost 4,000. But that money wasn’t for the iPhone; it was for emergency purposes, but I do have an iOS device. I didn’t really take my “iPhone cutie" seriously because it’s really expensive. Not until my classmate decided to sell her phone, and I actually bought it. My parents also approved. But that doesn’t prove anything because maybe I have it. After all, I did save money. Because if I did not, then I wouldn’t have it either.
Manifest + Pray
Every college student aims to have an award. And I’m one of them, but not until I got an average grade of 2.8 during my second-degree year. I lost hope because in the student orientation, if the cutoff of grades for you to be part of the Latin honors is, you need to have a grade of 2.5 to 1.0, and those grades are really hard to get. After getting my grades, I did mourn them and stated that I needed to accept them as early as I could. Until my last year, I still did, but I still have this tiny hope that maybe just maybe. Posted as a manifestation post on X, I have also lit candles for Saint Vicente Ferrer of Bogo and prayed to God. Not until my name was listed in the paper of Latin Honors. But I’m not satisfied because what if it’s only a mistake? But there are rumors that the University System has already phased out the 2.5 to 1.0 standard, and as long as your grades fit for each Latin honors category and don’t have any 3.0s, that’s the rumor. For the reason that there are other teachers who have different perspectives on the students, it is very unfair on your part that you won’t have that spot because of one subject. And I guess that’s true.
Manifest + Hope + Prayer + Courage
I have shared with all of you how difficult it is to land a job after college without any job experience except on-the-job training. I have tried BPO, which is not my expertise. You probably know all the things I have encountered because I openly shared my journey about job hunting on this platform. I have gone back to the province and come back afterward with a new mission, and that’s to use my tourism degree and apply to any hotel chains. Before I go back to the city, I have manifested a desire to get a job. “Manifesting landing a job, God,” that's what I have posted on my social media. And I have prayed as well. My mother also helped me pray because she knows how pressured I am. She also gave me a blessed handkerchief. She asked me to bring it with you, which I have done. To apply for a job, you need to have the courage to face the interviewer, which I did, and I also placed the handkerchief with me. They said they could not decide yet because there were still applicants next to mine. They will just text me if I’m hired. Afterward, I knew my interview went well, but I could not be sure because it was not only me, so I prayed that they would send me messages. In the following days, they sent me a message that I needed to get my requirements done. Which means that I did it.
So the question is, did it work? Well, it does at some point. But here's a thing: manifestation without actions and prayers with all positive emotions, in my case, won’t work. You just don't sit at the side and wait for it to happen. Make all your manifestations work.
That is all for this blog hivers, thank you so much for being with me.
Adios, Hivers.
