Welcome to the Carnival of Creative Growth #9. This is the first one since we went to the three week interval on the carnival. There were many submissions, and frankly, I often felt I was drowning in a sea of mediocrity as I read them all. I eliminated a large number of rambling, poorly written or otherwise inappropriate articles and present the following for your enjoyment.

I do challenge all of you who submit to the next carnival to think of the Carnival of Creative Growth as a gallery showcasing the finest writing discussing aspects of creative growth. I promise to be even more selective next time as I sort through the submissions!

My own submission for this carnival is the article, High Vibrational Dreams and Manifestation, which looks at how disappointingly low vibrational dreams can be altered to create high vibrational dreams which manifest as desired.
