I have decided that I can do worse than follow this advice posted in Victor Zammit's weekly Afterlife Report newsletter. The S. Birch quoted is Silver Birch, a discarnate entity or entities who take on the persona of a Native American of that name. He was channeled by a medium called Maurice Barbanell. His books are published by the Spiritual Truth Foundation.
"Never bang on a closed door; wait for it to open. There is a plan, not only for the universe but for every individual within it. The plan will operate. I have told my friends here many, many times that we can only do things in our way and in our time. We cannot do them in your way and in your time ... One reason is that you are not the best judges of what is right for you. We from our vantage point consider we are better judges of what is right for you materially, mentally and spiritually. Wait, and the door will open. It has opened for you many times." (S.Birch, directly from the afterlife).
