Manifesting continued

America,
It is important to note that this is a "consensus reality". At the very basic level, the wall is a wall because we all believe it is a wall.
Ha, what? That sounds nuts, right? It's a wall because it's a wall, you nut case. I can't change a physical object.

If that is what you are saying, then you are correct. While we can manifest our thoughts into reality in a very real way, it is extremely unlikely to change a consensus reality until the consensus agrees that the "wall" is no longer a wall. Not to mention that you can tell yourself anything, you can even lie to yourself about your beliefs, but you can't change what is ingrained into your programming. The untamed ego will not allow it.

The ego protects your true perception of reality through self doubt and inner dialog (aka scripts). This even goes to the extent that people self sabotage.
Going back to the quote from Serapis Bay and apply this analogy as a visual:
The Universe is a short order cook at a restaurant. You tell the waitress that you want a burger with fries. Then the very second that the cook begins making it you say, no wait, I want a BLT and potato salad.

We do this very thing everyday in our life, then wonder why we didn't get that thing, that job, or that relationship that we wanted. Well Homie, if you would make up your mind whether you wanted the burger or the BLT, maybe the Universe could get on with delivering your order.

We are talking about commitment, but we will get on to that tomorrow.
