You are not meant to already have all of the answers, Dear One.

You are meant to discover them through the experience of living.

That is what you are here for.

So cut yourself a little slack today, okay?

Why would you choose to throw away an opportunity to be happy, Dear One?

Why would you not take advantage of joyful experiences when they are within your grasp?

You know that is exactly what you are doing when you choose those things that you feel obligated to do, that you feel you ought to do, that you think others want you to be doing, over those things, people, places and activities that you want to do, that you love to do, that bring you the most pleasure, contentment and joy.

Our advise to you today, Dear One: Choose happiness.

Whenever there is a choice to be made, whenever you are in a position where you have to decide between multiple options, which is always – choose happiness.

Always choose that which makes you feel alive, that which excites you, that which invigorates you, that which inspires you, that which holds the most possibility, promise and potential for you, over that which does not.

Always.

Decision made.

It only fades if you let it fade, Dear One – if you choose to let it go, day by day, choice by choice.

It only fades when you decide to allow something else to capture your attention, to distract you, to become more important.

You can choose to remember, or you can choose to forget.

But know, Dear One, that it is a choice and that it is yours to make.

The wait is over, Dear One, the moment that you decide it is, the moment that you want it to be, the moment that you choose.

If someone that you love, Dear One, is not living up to your expectations of them, instead of being disappointed, instead of trying to change them, instead of trying to fix them, instead of trying to force yourself to stop loving them in order to put an end to your unhappiness, why not simply change your expectation of them instead?

Don’t miss them, Dear One.

Close your eyes, open your heart and connect with them instead.

We would like you to practice kindness today, Dear One.

We would like for you to remember to be kind to yourself in response to all that you do and don’t do, and all that happens to you and those around you.

Without exception.

That is all.

If it’s not fun, pleasurable, serving to enhance, strengthen or deepen your understanding of your connection to source; if it is not rooted in love, if it does not generate loving creations, connections, or bonds, then, Dear One, you know….

…it’s just not worth it!

What if we told you that there was no opposition, Dear One?

What if we told you that there was only you?

What if we told you that you; your thoughts, your actions, your beliefs, were the greatest, and only source of conflict in your life?

Would you respond them any differently, if you knew this to be true?

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.
