Do you want to know how to find to your center Dear One?  Do you want to know how to move towards a greater state of balance?

Look for, seek out, create, move towards, spread, allow yourself to experience joy, as much of it as you possibly can.

Love, laugher, happiness, compassion, contentment, joyful feelings, are all expressions of balance and reflections of alignment.

• The more joy you  experience, the better you will feel, the closer you will be to a balanced state.
• The more balanced you are, the more balance you will bring to the world.
• The more balance you bring to the world, the better off we all will be because of it.

You should know Dear One, that joy is at the center of balance and alignment for us all, and that your experience of it serves a far greater purpose than just making you feel good.

So just in case you were wondering if feeling better, if going in search of your center, in search of balance is really worth all of the effort, we want to reassure you, that it most definitely is.

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 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 uncertainty waiting for an answer.

Love is not a word Dear One.

• It is an action.
• It is a feeling, a rhythm, a way to be.
• It is an energy, an attitude, an answer, a solution.

Love is a lot of things Dear One.

But a word is definitely not one of them.

Remember that the next time that you hear it, or say it.

You know you don’t have to try so hard to be nice, agreeable, and accommodating to others Dear One if you are not feeling nice, agreeable, and accommodating.

Yes, of course you always want to do your best to be respectful, courteous, and compassionate to those around you, but know that there is no less courteous an act then that of being inauthentic, false or phony.

Don’t pretend to like something that you don’t.  Don’t pretend to agree when you disagree.  Don’t pretend to be interested when you are not. Especially if you are doing so out of a sense of respect.  Because we can assure you Dear One, that there is nothing respectful about being disingenuous, deceptive, or fake.

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.

What you think of you is so much more important than what they think of you Dear One.

• What you think of you impacts the choices that you make
• What you think of you influences the company that you keep
• What you think of you determines the kind of friend that you are
• What you think of you inspires that work that you do
• What you think of you governs the chances that you take
• What you think of you shapes who you are and the direction of your life

What they think of you reflects what they think of you.

Right this minute, imagine Dear One, things exactly the way that you want them to be.

Are you doing it?

Are you smiling?

Good.

Let your actions be motivated by love today Dear One, above all else.

Why?

Because we said so.

And because doing so will feel a whole lot better than not doing so.

P.S.

Choosing a positive conscious motivation at the start of your day will prevent your actions from being motivated by negative unconscious ones, such as fear, distrust, anxiety, guilt, sadness, revenge, etc.

Like the sunrise brings brilliant, magnificent, awe-inspiring beauty into the lives of all who  wake up to see it, so to does this day hold many great, wonderful, and beautiful surprises for you Dear One, if you are willing are wake up and see them.
