Call for Poetry Submissions—If the Universe Is Listening …
People say that your outer reality matches your inner reality. While there’s always room for debate—what would you change if the Universe really was listening to your whispers?

Would it be the way you talk to yourself?
Would it be what you wish for?
Maybe you wouldn’t change anything. If that’s the case, seeing the Universe as a mirror to your inner reality—what are you creating by the way you’re currently cultivating your inner world? What realities do you expect to be coming your way?
Take us into your process of manifestation. The up’s, the down’s, the doubt, the courage.
Show us how you use affirmations & emotional intelligence to create peace of mind and favorable outcomes.
This prompt was inspired by a few lines I created myself;
“If the Universe is listening to my whispers,
I’ll be making sure I speak with confidence,
And keep my wishes simple.
