On: Taking some time off
If your body is telling you that it needs some time off Dear One, take it.
Trust us when we tell you that you will be so much better off choosing to do so now while the choice is still yours to make.
On: The distance to your center
Regardless of how scared you are Dear One, how out of control, lost or chaotic you feel, how far off course you think you have traveled, you are and will always only ever be one choice, one breath, one thought away from your center.
Always.
On: Prioritizing you
Feeling badly, indulging in feelings of guilt, remorse or regret for choosing to take care of yourself Dear One, is like indulging in a hot fudge Sunday as a reward for eating less sugar.
You don’t need our help to get past this one. What you need is reassurance that it is OK, essential even, for you to make yourself the priority in your own life.
And you’ve got it!
Now the only question that remains is, are you going to grant yourself the permission to believe it?
On: Creating order
The moment that you decide that you are ready to embrace order in your life Dear One, your life will begin to become orderly.
Why?
Because once you decide, once you become certain of what it is that you want, your attitude, your choices, your actions, and your behaviors will all begin to support that decision.
Once you decide Dear One, you will seek out, choose, create and attract order over chaos.
The hard part is not creating what you want.
The hard part is deciding what it is that you really want to create.
On: There is no one better than you
Know Dear One, that they are not better than you.
They are not more valuable, worthy, or important than you are either.
Their words, actions and beliefs are not more significant than yours are.
The story of their life does not matter more than the story of yours, regardless of how they may act, or what they may say.
And they are most definitely not, in any way, shape or form, more divine than you are.
They may have acquired more knowledge than you on a particular subject, they may have become more practiced than you at a particular skill, they may be more educated, physically fit, or have a greater understanding of how to accumulate wealth than you do, but that just makes them different Dear One, not better.
Remember that the next time you are feeling intimated by someone else’s success or achievement.
Remember in that moment that instead of giving into your feelings of intimidation that you can always choose to see the situation for what it really is; an opportunity for you to be inspired by or learn something new from someone who is in every way that matters– your equal.
On: An act of bravery
What if you chose with your heart today Dear One, instead of with your head?
What if you really did it, instead of just thinking about it?
What do you think would happen?
Are you brave enough to find out?
On: Your commitment to commitment
When the choices you are committed to don’t seem to be leading you towards a better feeling state Dear One, it may be time for you to start thinking about making different ones.
On: How you feel is not the problem
How you feel is rarely the issue Dear One. Your feelings are not the problem.
Issues, problems, challenges, troubles do not arise from having feelings.
They arise Dear One, when you respond poorly to them.
Can you appreciate the difference?
Having bad feelings is not a valid excuse for making bad choices.
Remember that the next time that you are feeling badly and you just may save yourself and those around from a world of unnecessary hurt.
On: An opportunity to heal
When you are hurting Dear One, when you are in pain, please remember this; you have come to this place to heal this place.
You did not end up here because you did something wrong. You did not end up here because you are being punished. You did not end up here because you are being tested, tortured, or asked to prove yourself.
You ended up here Dear One, for one reason and one reason only, because you are being given an opportunity to heal.
Please take it.
On: Seeing beauty in the dark
A dark, cloudy day holds just as much potential for you to witness something beautiful Dear One, as a bright, sunny one does.
You have just conditioned yourself to look for it more in one than in the other.
The trick to overcoming this is simple.
Believe us, and start looking for it in both.
Once you do, once you discover for yourself that what we are telling you is true, your experience of darkness will never be the same again.
