You are wise Dear One.

Choose to remember that today and act accordingly.

When push comes to shove Dear One – Relax – Breathe – Let go.

Do not push. – – Do not shove.

Stand aside.

Let those pushing, push along without you. – – Let those shoving, shove right by.

Believe us when we tell you, you don’t want to go where they are going.

You cannot force your way to happiness.  You cannot push your way to contentment.  You cannot shove your way to comfort or respect or love or anything else worth having Dear One.  You cannot force yourself into a state of joy by trying to force someone else out of one, and neither can they.

When those around you start pushing and shoving Dear One, do yourself a favor and let them do it without you.  Let them pass.  The sooner that they do, the faster that they are out of your way, the faster you can be back on your way towards something truly valuable.

Creativity is the joining together of two or more things Dear One – thoughts, feelings, words, notes, pieces of music or fabric, lines, colors, ingredients, anything. Even the joining together of you and we, connecting with one another – on any level, is an act of creation.

Creativity is not an act reserved only for those who call themselves artists.

Once you understand that creativity is the bringing together of any two things, any two elements, you can see/you can begin to understand that the whole of life is an act of creation.  You are consistently trying/bringing things together – in your thoughts, in your heart, in your physical reality.  It makes no difference how or what you bring together, only that you bring elements together.  That is how you create.

If you are alive, you are capable of being creative.  The nature of creativity is allowing Dear One, and the process of allowing is one of opening yourself up.   You are most open when you are creating.

We love to watch you bring different things, different elements, different ideas together.  It brings us great joy to see you adding to/expanding your word, to watch you discover all that is possible.

Our greatest wish for you today Dear One, is that the process brings you as much joy as it does us.

Never mind how you felt Dear One.  How do you feel?  How do you want to feel?

You know it’s perfectly alright for you to let go of the disappointment, hurt, fear, guilt, uncertainty, or insecurity that you experienced yesterday.   You truly do not have to start your day off by remembering to be sad, afraid, guilty, disappointed, uncertain, or unsure of yourself.

It just isn’t necessary.

There is no honor or benefit to be gained by remaining loyal to bad feelings Dear One – regardless of their cause.

There is no rule that states that you need to start each day from where you left off the day before.  Your jumping off point does not need to be yesterdays stress, disappointment, hurt, regret, or pain.  It can be anything that you want it to be.

You get to decide what you take with you to the starting line each day.

You can choose to start your day off carrying all of the things that did not feel good to you yesterday OR you can make a different choice and try hope, confidence, strength, optimism, excitement, anticipation, or joy instead.

What’s it going to be today Dear One?  What are you going to choose to take with you as you step up to the line?

The energy that creates worlds is flowing to you, flowing through you, right now Dear One.  Whether you are conscious of it or not, you are swimming in it, interacting with it, creating with it, every minute of every day.

And  yet you act as if all is ordinary, unremarkable, unchanging – you behave as if something miraculous is not happening to you, right now.

Well, it is!

There is no need for you to wait for someone else to point it out, to clearly define it, to declare it as such, before you believe it to be true.

Who are they to know it, to recognize it, to declare it as fact any more than you Dear One?

• Unfortunately, there is no “right” thing to do Dear One.
• Fortunately, there is no “wrong” thing to do either.

There is however, the brave thing to do, the empowering thing to do, the compassionate thing to do, the honest thing to do, the convenient thing to do, the hurtful thing to do, the vengeful thing to do, the lazy thing to do, the fearful thing to do, the adventurous thing to do, the loving thing to do, and so on.

Get the picture?

There is no “right” answer to your question Dear One.

There is only the answer that you choose – the answer that feels right to you.  And you’re the only one that will ever know what that is.

So don’t ask us what we think you should do Dear One – ask your heart instead.

The answer you are looking for is there – we promise you that.

Once you find it, then you can ask us what we think you should do.

And our answer will be a simple one – Act on it.

There is always an option available to you for happiness Dear One.  Always.

Today, we whole-heartedly encourage you to choose it.

You do not need to choose to acquiesce to every single whim of the ego Dear One – the ego that is working so diligently to capture and keep all of your attention away from your heart.

It knows Dear One, that the wisdom of the heart will always overshadow it, will always eclipse it, will always raise your awareness to such a state that the wining, yielding, forceful, frightened, mocking voice of the ego will no longer be heard.

When you listen to your heart Dear One, the voice of the ego will disappear into the background. It will become nothing more than noise to you – a reminder of just how far you have traveled from where you once were.  It will become nothing more than a point of reference.  And before you know it, it will disappear completely.  And it knows this.  That is why the ego will do all that it can to capture and hold on to your attention.

It is not doing so to harm you Dear One, but only to try and ensure its own survival.  But fear not – no harm will come to it, no pain will come to you, if you allow the voice of the ego to dissolve.  It will simply vanish and melt back into the energy of all that is.

It will be fine Dear one, but more importantly, know that you will be fine without it.

And all of this will happen Dear One, all of this will begin to happen, as soon as you remember your heart – as soon as you remember to connect to your heart and allow yourself to feel all that it has to offer.

Allow yourself to relinquish control Dear One.

Allow yourself to bond with your own heart.

Allow yourself to feel its beating.  Allow yourself to feel its wanting.  Allow yourself to feel its passion.   Allow yourself to notice its subtleties – when it is happy, or glad, or giddy, when it is questioning, when it is certain, when it is emotionless, when it is filled with joy, filled with regret, filled with sadness, filled with love.

Allow yourself to feel it all Dear One.  Allow yourself to want more for yourself than just the absence of discomfort, the absence of pain, the absence of desire.

Please do not make it your hearts ambition to feel as little as possible Dear One.

For that would be as great a loss as choosing to close your eyes forever after witnessing only one sunrise.

Trust us Dear One, they won’t stop loving you if you say no from time to time.

We know it can be tough to do when you want to help, when you so very much want what’s best for them.

When someone is hurting or scared or confused, their attention is focused on their discomfort, on their pain, on themselves, on telling you what it is that they need, which is completely understandable.

But here’s what they are not telling you:  They want what’s best for you, too.

Please remember balance in all things Dear One: that includes being of service to others as well as being of service to yourself.
