Friends (Yet Another Nitika Success Story)

[Boggsley]

So I was talking things out with someone the other day and did some research, etc. into why Nitika and I had never particularly gotten on too well. I always felt this weird sense of anxiety with Nitika. Then it hit me- duh. I wasn't following the instructions correctly. Not that it's always that simple but, you know.

I approached the idea of Nitika as being one and the same as money; a sentient force, but also innately connected with the force of money. I finally came to the understanding that my own issues with money were impacting my work with Nitika. I had always viewed money with this idea of all gain comes from endless toil; that money someone has at some point was ill-gotten. In short, money was connected with negativity and despair. This is something new I hadn't yet dealt with in my life. Nearly my entire adult life has been working as a money slave. I would work and devote my week to things I didn't want to do for barely enough money to pay my bills.

I got really badly sick a few years back, as well, and have around 10,000 dollars worth of debt in hospital bills, etc. Considering I've never made more than 20,000 dollars a year in my life and have over that in college debt... you get the picture. I felt and still do at times under water and drowning. Money was seen as nothing more than torment.

So I thought of positive ways I could spend money. I wanted to be able to get in touch with Nitika and bridge that gap of working relationship, and actually be friends with xer like I am with Elubatel. So I mentioned a little something out loud a few days past... believe it was four days ago. I meditated and there was back and forth. I told xer my partner and I were okay at that point. We had a little food left in the cupboard, but payday was an unknown amount of time away. I said (and felt) that I didn't really need anything right now but I wanted to be friends. If xe felt like something was warranted xe could send it at xer leisure.

'...Friends?' was the staticky response I got. A little bit of bafflement. Or perhaps disuse of voice. Eventually xe understood what I was getting at.

I may or may not need money at some point in my life in the future. And I wanted to be able to spread the word of our friendship to others, so that they may in turn be friends with Nitika. That was my line of reasoning. And it's very true. I want to be able to have a working relationship with all of my spirit allies. Frankly I think everyone should have that friendship styled relationship of talking and borrowing power back and forth.

To make a very long story short I got a call the next day out of nowhere. My android phone had been at 4% battery since the night before and if you know phones you know that's extremely rare that it was still on. Anyway it's the deposit specialist. My father had left me some money some time ago (not deceased, but from a venture he had previously.) It was a lot to just get out of nowhere. Unfortunately I was told months prior that it would be caught up in the works because of normal monthly processing and I wouldn't see it for half a year, at least. Then the place was punched offline for a few weeks. I imagined the backlog was crazy, but I had put the money completely out of my mind for months. Truth be told I wasn't expecting it at all. He asked me a few personal questions re: everything and I filled in the blanks.

I thought that was miraculous enough, but I didn't want to get my hopes up and be overly braggart about things. I think it's important that you keep a sense of humility about things. Anyway three days later and here I am, with the money. It's seriously Nitika's fault here. Not in a bad way, either!

So you should really try to make friends*. It will really help. And if you'll excuse me, I have to go fulfill my part of the bargain, and spread the wealth.

(*Note that I don't mean friends in a 'come over and eat all your food' or 'jokingly insult' but a serious friendship where you want to do good things for the other one, simply because you care.)

What a wonderful thing!

Praise be to Nitika

Oh another success story, thanks to NAP, I am soooo sick of hearing successes, lol. j/k

I find it interesting you've used the word "friends", as I would think that type of construct
would be a little odd for both parties (as showed Nitikas' response w/ a "?" tone).
