THE WINNERS

[aletalete]

The numbers that won were great. I think there oughta be 7 winning tickets. I personally love 13, very lucky number for me, 19, and 57, oh and 36 is one of my lotto favs. In fact, my favorite set of numbers from 1987 and still, are 5,12, 19, 21, 36 and 42. Dunno which one I'd make the powerball or last number for the Mega Millions. I voted for lottery in California and it passed, and that was my favorite, chosen numbers.

Wow, I want to read some more of your dreams if they are here, and/or if you ever share some of the ones with us that came true. NO! not if they are personal or classified for any reason. Total respect and zero pressure.

Be true to yourself, always and never doubt your own inner-leadings.

AAACK! LOL NOBODY WON!! Those common numbers, I am shooocked! Estimated jackpot coming is 1.3 Bbbillion. LOL watch it go to 1.5 Billion! Probably congress will be buying tickets with tax money, they're so money hungry, LOL I mean the whole legislative branch, ha.

Yo, Eagle1 Sir! Please tell me what I think I already know....it's way against your ethics for us to do a Lotto experiment?! Go ahead and tell me I'm really a bad girl, but I want to very badly! Us, all of us here oughta be able to come up with at least 5 of the 6. I already have 5 sets that I'm gonna post here for any or everyone that wants to play them.

**editing this in....yes I do seriously think that the reason more folks don't win a lotto is because The Spirit that gifts intuition and things kin to it, does not gift us for selfish, personal gain. I had to post this as soon as I hit send on my post. But, for fun....heck, we get other things here, our hunches get hits, their dreams get hits, etc.

This is fun stuff. Your Grand experiment is fun. I am stressed lately, yesterday was a bear, and I don't unwind by knitting, TV or a jacuzzi (not anymore but used to) I don't do crossword puzzles, and have never played a game on my computer in the 18 or so years have had it. Used to I debated at political forums and chatrooms but now?
I unwind with the puzzles of your dreambot runs and pondering your gifted dreamers' offerings.

But, I confess it. When I was doing the dreambot thing here, in that little what, two week window I chose five sets of lottery numbers, not working for them but rattling them off as fast as I could. I wasn't officially P2 and didn't read the code of not doing it for gain, till later anyway.

Okay, even if you don't want to do that here officially, I want to just ask members here if they want to go for numbers for this thing. Is that okay? (No offense or disrespect if your answer is no. If it is, I won't post my numbers, etc and total respect. Some of us could just PM our numbers. If anyone's interested, I'll be glad to share, just in case they ever win.)

Aletalete, do you ever play the thing?

NO, I DO NOT TYPICALLY PLAY THE LOTTERY (ONLY ONCE OR TWICE IN MY LIFE). I PERSONALLY LIKE THE SLOTS AND SCRATCH OFFS.

Nanny, I do not for a moment like the notion of using the resources and gifts of this forum for worldly gain.  Seeing lottery numbers and going back-and-forth with others about them, seem more appropriate for PMs, or as you mention, for you to disclose among your own family.  If someone in your family wins because of it, so be it.

Let's not turn this thread to throwing Bible verses out to each other.  Scripture can be used to justify most any behavior, as well as to prohibit many behaviors.  Dare we read the account of the Witch of Endor, being used in the Bible to summon Samuel's spirit ... for what?

Fine, if those here view the lottery for what it is, diversion and entertainment, all well and good.  To believe for a moment that God's purposes (or any spiritual gain) comes from lottery winnings alone, is a slippery slope.  I've been rich and now I am poor, and must be grateful for it.  May some time come on this Earth when I am rich again, maybe, but I am not about to push God to make it happen.  Our prayers matter most, in changing us, not God.

There is certainly a disconnect as to whom the lottery caters to ... those who oftentimes would gain more benefit from donating their $5, $10, or $20 to a food kitchen, homeless person, or some other charity more visually tangible.  The rich, more than not, do not play the lottery; they already accept that the statistical odds are not in their favor; they would rather make their thousands, millions, or billions in a more traditional or old-fashioned way.

The morning after the next Powerball drawing, someone or someones may indeed win; thus, changing their lives.  The sad stories of those who borrowed money on their credit cards to purchase dozens of tickets, and not a one winning, will be quickly forgotten by society, and too, will the courts dismiss any lawsuits directed towards the lottery commissions, from anyone who is now further in debt, after having chased a dream.

I am not condemning anyone here for having fun.  I am simply asking us to be respectful of what this forum continually seeks, and what the spiritual world grants (by grace) for those who come here.  Ask God for lottery numbers; I'd rather ask Him to resurrect my mother from the grave ... that is least already a promise in Scripture.

OMG, CAN WE PLEASE ALL LIGHTEN UP A LITTLE BIT ON THIS SITE. SOME OF RECENT CONVERSATIONS I HAVE SEEN ARE BECOMING VERY UNCOMFORTABLE TO READ. LETS JUST ENJOY OUR DREAMS AND MOVE FORWARD.

THANKS.
