You are here to have an experience of being alive Dear One.

You can’t get it wrong.  You simply cannot.   Just like you can’t order the wrong flavor of ice cream.  No flavor is wrong.  Each flavor is just different.

The more you order – the more flavors you will get a chance to taste –  the more you will discover what your personal preferences are.  Some flavors you will like, some you will love, and some you will discover that you don’t like much at all.

But with each choice Dear One, you are learning.

As long as you keep choosing, as long as you continue to taste all that you want to taste, and allow yourself to continue to have new experiences, you can’t get it wrong.  We promise you that.

You now officially have one less thing to worry about!

Its time to start enjoying yourself/enjoying life more Dear One, and stop putting so much effort into trying to please those around you, especially at the expense of your own happiness.

Do things that bring you joy, that make you smile, that make you happy, and you will be in a far greater position to please those around you then you would be when you sacrifice your own well being for theirs.

If you are not happy yourself Dear One, what could you possibly have to offer anyone else that would be of any real value to them anyway?

You mustn’t let a fear of rejection stop you from following your heart Dear One.

Rejection will not kill you.  We promise you that.

But repression might, if you make a habit of it.

Don’t let doubt and fear dominate your thinking and influence all that you do.  Open up Dear One.  Open up wide, and say what it is you really want to say and do what it is that you really want to do.

Act courageously, and then celebrate the fact that you have done so – regardless of the outcome.

Your heart will thank you for it, in more ways than one.

Are you troubled by what is Dear One, or by your anticipation of what might, could, may, someday, possibly come to pass?

It is worth taking a moment to figure out, as the answer just may provide you with a great deal of immediate relief.

Are you anticipating less than desirable outcomes, unpleasant circumstance or unwanted results?

If you are going to project yourself into the future via your thoughts, why not project yourself into a future that is pleasant, wonderful, joyous, balanced, prosperous, full of love and that feels good?

If you get to choose the thoughts that you think, which oh by the way you do, why would you choose to imagine yourself anywhere but where it is you really want to be?

Change your thoughts Dear One and you just may find that you have much less to be troubled about than you thought you did.

The problem Dear One, is not with you – or with the people around you – or with your situation – or with the circumstances you now find yourself in.  The only problem or dilemma that you have that needs fixing, as far as we can tell, is your thinking – Your thoughts about yourself, about the people around you, about your situation,  about your circumstances, about what’s possible.

And your thoughts Dear One, are and always will be, well within your power to change.

So, what was the problem again?

Leaping and being pushed are two completely different experiences Dear One.

A friend that encourages you to leap is a good friend indeed.

A friend that pushes you over the edge, with or without your consent, is no friend at all.

When exiting a comfort zone Dear One, you should always do so by choice, by your own free will.

Leaping and being pushed do not both land you in the same place.

Remember that.

Remaining fearful Dear One, when you are in uncertain or unfamiliar circumstances is like turning off the faucet when you are most in need of a drink.

Fear cuts you off from your source of well-being, from the very support, guidance and energy that you are looking for/that you are in need of, just when you need it the most.

Trust – in a universe that exists to support you, that is dominated by well-being, opens you up and connects you to your source– connects you to the unlimited support, guidance, energy and wisdom you have forgotten that exists within you.  Trust is the key that gives you access to everything that you need to deal with any situation, with grace, confidence, strength, compassion and love.

Fear cuts you off, and holds you in darkness. Trust opens you up and lets in the light.

The more you trust, the more you are opening the faucet, the less you will have to be fearful of.

Don’t settle Dear One. Never settle.

The universe has placed no cap on your potential – on what you can do, be or have.

There is no reason why you should either.

It is the glasses that you put on Dear One, that determines the way that you see things.  The glasses that you put on.  Remember that.

You can choose to view the world from any perspective that you’d like.  If you don’t like the view that you’ve chosen, simply try on a different pair of lenses.  Do this until you begin to see things in a way that is pleasing to you.  Until your vision becomes clear.  You’ve got an infinite number of options.

You can view the world and all of the people, places, events and circumstances in it through lenses of horror, self pity, anger, frustration or fear.  Or you can view the world through lenses of wonder, compassion, possibility, empathy, humor or love.

What’s it going to be today Dear One?  Which lenses are you going to choose?

We understand that identifying your wants, desires and preferences and attracting/allowing them into your experience does not always feel like an easy task Dear One.

You want things for yourself – for your family – for your friends – for strangers – for humanity – the list goes on.  Maintaining an awareness of all the things that are not in your life can be exhausting.

So today, we would like you to give yourself a break and take a day off from wanting.

We would like you to instead, spend your day focused on giving.

Ask yourself what you can give to every situation you encounter today.  What can you give to every person that crosses your path? What can you give to every interaction?

In every situation, look for what you can give, and give it.  Plain and simple.  Nothing more.

See where the path of the day takes you as a result.

You just may be surprised where you end up.
