The sunrise brings brilliant, magnificent, inspiring beauty into the lives of all those who are willing to wake-up and open their eyes early enough in the morning to see it.
You should know that in much the same way, this day holds a great many brilliant, magnificent, inspiring and beautiful surprises for you Dear One, if you are willing to wake-up, open your eyes up and see them.
Something is coming, Dear One.
Something wonderfully unexpected is headed your way.
Something that will delight, excite, and thrill you.
Something that is going to make you ecstatically happy, and bring you lots and lots of joy.
Get excited, feel excited, be really excited about it Dear One, because it is almost here!
And once you are there, once you are in that place, once you are in a state of feeling glorious, giddy, delightful anticipation, stay there, until it arrives.
You don’t have to fight the brewing storm Dear One, or fear it, run from it or hide from it.
There is another option you know.
You can simply allow it to come, and trust yourself enough to know that you can handle it, whatever it may be.
Truth is, your opinion of it, your feelings about it, your actions towards it, your awareness of it, are all feeding it, are all adding to it, are all attracting it towards you Dear One.
If you are giving your attention to it, you are making a contribution to it. So we would like for you to choose with great intention what you would like that contribution to be.
You can speed it up or slow it down, you make can make it stronger and more fierce or kinder and gentler, or you can add levity, compassion, calm and peacefulness or you can add anger, fear, confusion and angst. You can even turn it around or stop it all together if you should choose.
And before you ask, yes, you are that powerful.
You can choose to believe that you can handle it all Dear One, or you can choose to believe that you can’t.
Whichever choice you make, you’ll be right.
So, what’s it going to be?
There is no force in the universe that is strong enough to change you Dear One, if you are not ready to change yourself.
But once you decide that you are, there is no force strong enough to stop you.
You’ve got an important decision to make today Dear One.
To struggle, or not to.
What’s it going to be?
It’s not luck that creates good fortune Dear One.
It’s not chance, nepotism, or hard work either.
It’s choice.
Fear.
If you stop empowering it with your thoughts, beliefs, actions, and attention Dear One, it will cease to have power.
How do you do that?
By choosing to focus your thoughts, beliefs, actions, and attention on something else, on something infinitely more pleasant, pleasing, powerful, and purposeful.
What is that?
Well-being.
When you don’t know what else to believe Dear One, when you don’t know what is true beyond your fear, believe in well-being. It is the most dominate force in the universe. And the only thing that is keeping it from being the most dominant force within you, is you.
Childhood is over Dear One. You are no longer a little person living within an environment that you have seemingly no control over. You are an adult and whether you believe it or not, you are able to make decisions for yourself.
When faced with a trial that requires you to face your past, remember that whatever it is, it is no longer your current reality. You don’t have to bring it back into the present moment with you if you choose not to. Others might approach you on the subject with energy, impressions or patterns that used to exist back then. It may still be their reality. That doesn’t mean that it has to continue to be yours. Remember at those moments, that you can choose not to dive right back into old patterns with them. You can choose to stay right where you are, in the present moment and deal with the situation from where you now stand. Just because they are choosing to engage in old patterns, does not mean that you have to join them in this practice.
When facing the past Dear One, anchor yourself in the present first, for that is the only place from where you can impact change. KNOW that what you have learned and accomplished for yourself since that time, no one can take away from you, ever.
In the present, you get to decide what your past means to you. You can assign a lot of meaning to it or no meaning at all. That is completely up to you and only you.
The realization that you are bound by nothing but your beliefs and the limits of your own imagination – That is what true independence is Dear One.
