From where we are sitting Dear One, we can very clearly see that most of your daily discomfort, pain, frustration, and unhappiness is not being caused by your current situation, circumstances, relationships, or available opportunities.

It is being caused by your thoughts about your current situation, circumstances, relationships, and available opportunities.

And we just wanted to take this opportunity to remind you, that it is well within your power to change your thoughts anytime that you want!

Why not start now?

In one form or another Dear One, this question seems to come up for you a lot.

• What is the meaning of this?
• What was the meaning of that?
• What does it all mean?

And no matter how many different ways you ask the question, the answer is always going to be the same.

The meaning is always going to be whatever you decide that it is.

What it means to you Dear One, can only be determined by you, and nobody else.

So may we suggest that the next time the question arises, that you you ask yourself this instead:

• What meaning am I going to choose to give to this?

Doing so will ensure that you always have a definite answer to your question and, it will spare you from experiencing a great deal of unnecessary uncertainly waiting for an answer.

Being an optimist requires just as much thought, energy, effort, and self control as being a pessimist does Dear One – only it yields you far more promising, pleasing, and positive results.

In every moment, whether you are conscious of it or not, you are constantly choosing between the two.

So, in this moment, we want you to consciously decide, we want you to consciously choose.

Pick one.

Which are you going to be today?

You are not here to complete a task Dear One.  And you are not here to win.  You are not here to prove a point, to get the boy/girl, to win the race, to nail the bid, to be right, better, or best either.

You are here to have an experience of being alive.  You are here to experience joy, to get to know yourself, to get to know your heart, to discover who you are, and what you capable of, what you enjoy and what you don’t, what makes you cry and what makes you laugh, what inspires you and what frightens you, what moves you to love, and what stands in your way to it.

And you are here to have an experience of getting to know them too.

Remember that Dear One, as you move through each task, each conversation, each interaction throughout your day, your week, your year, your life.

Yes, the best way to learn is through experience Dear One.

But you don’t need to drink the poison to know that it will kill you.

Be adventurous. Be Daring. Take a chance. Try something new. Risk it. Live.

And remember, that you were given intuition, knowledge, and wisdom for a reason.

So don’t forget to use them.

Why choose to doubt yourself, punish yourself, be hard on yourself, judge yourself, or skimp on yourself Dear One, when you can choose to comfort yourself, forgive yourself, have confidence in yourself,  be generous with yourself, and love yourself instead?

The only thing you need to change about yourself Dear One, to begin to turn things around, is your mind.

Passion, inspiration, intuition, and joy are all “tools” that your soul uses Dear One, to speak to you to, to connect with you, to get your attention, to guide you, to motivate you, to encourage you to move in one direction or another, every single day.

So pay attention.

When you get a hit, big or small, of any of them, it means that you have just stumbled across something that your soul does not want you to miss, that is worthy of pursuit, of further investigation, that is, in one way or another, in alignment with you life’s purpose.
