The best way to get unstuck Dear One, the best way to get thing moving again, is to dream even bigger.`

Give all of your attention only to that which is wanted, and you will be moving again in no time.

If you let the fear of tomorrow fade away Dear One, and you let the regret of yesterday go with it, what are you left with?

Your present.

They judge you based on your looks Dear One, because you are judging you based on your looks.

If you stop – they will too.

They are taking their lead from you.

Do you want to enjoy your day today Dear One, or struggle through it?

It really is totally and completely up to you.

You are blessed Dear One, even when you are suffering.

You are divine, even when you do not succeed.

You are a beautiful soul, even when your body is weak and your skin is blemished.

You are precious, even when you are without abundance

You are loved, even when you do not feel worthy of it.

You are what you are Dear One, and there is absolutely nothing that you can do, there is  absolutely nothing that they can do to you, that is ever going to change that.

Freedom is a state of mind Dear One.  It is an attitude, a feeling, a way of life.

It is not something that you are granted, that you have to work to achieve, that you need receive permission to be.

You are free, the very moment that you choose to be.

You already know that the best way to build strength in your physical body Dear One, is to use it.

But did you also know that the same goes for building strength in your emotional body as well?

If you want to feel stronger in love, don’t wait for more love to come to you, love more.

If you want to be more creative, create more.

If you want to be more trusting, trust more.

Use whatever it is you want to strengthen, Dear One, more.

It’s just that simple.

Not easy, but simple.

The time to compromise Dear One, is not when you are feeling compromised, weak, ill, needy, or out of sorts.

That is the time for you to practice radical self-love.

And while we understand that choosing to do so may feel like the selfish choice to you, especially because it means that you are potentially letting someone else down when they need you, we can assure you, that it most definitely is not.

Choosing to practice radical self-love when you are not functioning at full strength, is actually the most selfless thing that you can do to serve the greatest good of all parties involved.

Here’s why:

1. It will help you to heal and regain your strength as quickly as possible so that you will once again be in a position to be able to confidently and generously share your energy with those around you.
2. It will give them an excellent model to follow so they can begin doing the same for themselves.

On May 22^nd The Soul’s Agenda turned 2.

When I first started this journey I had 12 readers, (consisting mostly of of family members,  a handful of co-workers, and my best friends from high school) and absolutely no idea what I was doing.  Now, two years later the site has nearly 7,000 readers, from 48 states, and 60 different countries.  We are being translated into Spanish by one of our very generous readers, and have our own video series thanks to the talents of another.    It has been quite a year.  And to tell you the truth, I still have absolutely no idea what I am doing, but I am having a really great time doing it.

I just wanted to take a moment to mark to this occasion by thanking all of you for taking this journey with me.  I have become very attached to this community of ours over the past two years and I am so grateful for the strength, inspiration, love, and sense of belonging that I get from all you each and every day.

It is with great excitement, curiosity, and humility that I kickoff the start of another year.    I can’t even image at this point what the year ahead will have in store for us.  All I know for certain is that I can’t wait to find out.

With love, gratitude, confidence, and excitement,

Michelle
