TRAVELING WITH YOUR GUARDIAN ANGEL

I’ve traveled a lot for both business and pleasure over the years. About ten years ago, in reading spiritual articles and books, I read a suggestion to request benevolent outcomes for all the events in your life. I decided to try it out, and was amazed how PERFECTLY it worked for everything-- from small requests, such as a parking spot next to a busy restaurant or a seat on a busy Paris subway, to the really important situations in my business and personal life. After having made these requests between 10,000 and 15,000 times, I am firmly convinced that our Guardian Angels are there to assist us in living more gentle lives. We just have to ask.

I request Most Benevolent Outcomes for all my trips. When it comes time to go to the airport, I say, “I request a Most Benevolent Outcome for the drive to the airport in safety and with no delays. Thank you.” At the airport, I’ll say, “I request a Most Benevolent Outcome that my bags arrive safely and on time. Thank you.”

Request a Benevolent Outcome for getting through the Security Line with no problems. And request a MBO (as I call them) for sitting next to someone interesting on the plane. If you have to connect, request a MBO that you will arrive in plenty of time to make the connection.

After dinner in Milan, Italy one night, I walked out to a busy boulevard, thinking I would easily find a taxi back to my hotel. All the taxis that passed were full, so after five minutes, I requested a Benevolent Outcome for a taxi. Before the words were completely out of my mouth, a taxi turned right in front of me, I signaled to him, and off we went to the hotel.

The Milan airport is a long drive outside the city, so I requested a Benevolent Outcome for someone to share my taxi at 5:00 am. The next morning when I checked out of the hotel there were no people in sight. I was resigned to paying for an expensive taxi, when in walked six doctors from the Mayo Clinic. They had hired a mini-bus to take them to the airport and invited me to join them, at no charge!

Jean from Ontario, Canada was in Seattle exploring the city by bus. She asked for a Benevolent Outcome for her ride downtown. As the driver approached the front of the Seattle Center, home of the Space Needle, a delivery truck suddenly stopped in front of him. The bus driver brought the bus safely to a stop within inches of the truck. No one was injured, and Jean was able to joke with the driver about all the paper work he had just avoided!

What are some other Most Benevolent Outcomes (MBO’s) you can request while traveling?

· Request a MBO for your passport to be delivered on time;
· Request a MBO for getting the best room in a hotel for your preferences;
· Request a MBO if you are having to “standby” for a flight that’s quite full;
· Request a MBO for seats on busy subways, buses, or trains;
· Request a MBO when you are in dangerous places for your safety;
· Request a MBO each time you take part in a sport, such as skiing, on a trip;
· Request a MBO for being seated at the perfect table on a cruise to meet interesting people;
· Request a MBO for pleasant weather conditions for your excursions.

I wish you many “happy trails!”
