Even though the ocean is only a couple of blocks away, I had never seen a seagull hanging out behind the building where I work. I didn't think anything of it, so I parked my car and went inside to begin my work day.
That night, I had a session with an Energy Healing client late into the evening. Therefore, everyone had already left the building long before me. When I was done for the night, I checked my phone and saw that I had a message. It was from the Clinic Director where I work, who was laughing, as she shared that when she left the building that night, she saw our seagull friend suddenly fly off the car where he had been resting all day and go directly to my car in the far corner of the parking lot. When he landed on the roof of my car, he lifted his rear feathers and well... you can probably guess the rest. That's right, bird crap on my clean car!
What you resist, you attract.
One morning as I was arriving at work, I noticed a big seagull resting on the roof of one of the cars in the parking lot.
Even though the ocean is only a couple of blocks away, I had never seen a seagull hanging out behind the building where I work. I didn't think anything of it, so I parked my car and went inside to begin my work day.
The next day I saw the same bird again and thought to myself "What a funny place for a seagull to be hanging out again."
The following day, "Mr. Seagull" was there again, only this time, he was sitting on top of the car next to the space where I usually park. Before I pulled in, I realized that I better not park in my usual spot or the seagull might hop on my clean car and leave me a special "gift," as birds have been known to do from time to time. So, when I saw an open parking spot in the farthest corner of the lot, I took it. "My car will be safe from the seagull here," I said to myself, feeling very smart.

To emphasize the point even further, as soon as the seagull finished its business, it flew away, never to be seen again. Nice!
As I listened to her message, I started laughing too. Besides being a funny story, I got the lesson and the reminder: What you resist, you attract.
Oh yeah, that one.
What you resist, you attract.
I resisted and I attracted. Without a doubt.
But, like other times, I had to deal with a load of crap before I got the point.
Thank you, Mr. Seagull.
