It only feels as if you are risking something by stepping out into the unknown, Dear One – going somewhere that you have never gone before, trying something that you have never tried before.

But the truth is that there is no safer place that you could possibly be than on the edge of something new, in the process of creation.

The same energy that creates worlds, creates healing, creates art, creates music, creates poetry, creates abundance, creates cupcakes.

What safer place could there be than standing fully present on the leading edge of yourself, on the leading edge of thought, completely engulfed in the limitless energy of creation?

The more you open up to it, the more you trust it, the more you allow it to flow to you and through you and all around you, the safer you will be.

Resistance is what causes risk, Dear One.  Fear, hesitation and uncertainty pinch off the flow of creative energy to you.

So what we are saying to you is that holding back, hesitation, doubt, resistance and fear are greater sources of risks in your life than trying something new ever would be, ever could be.

Risk big, Dear One.  Jump, Leap,  Soar in the unknown.   Trust us when we tell you that there is no safer place for you to be.

When it comes to determining your worth, your value, your perception of yourself Dear One, all that really matters, all that will ever really matter, is what you think of you, is your opinion of you.

You can ask for a second opinion, but we don’t think that it is going to be of much help to you.

What they think of you only matters if you agree with them.

Which brings it all right back to you again.

We think that you are amazing Dear One, that you are creative, powerful, and capable of doing, being or having anything that you want in this life.

But our opinion means nothing, unless you agree with us.

So, what do YOU think of you?

Standing in front of a well-stocked refrigerator will not make you any less hungry, Dear One.

Sandwiches do not magically make themselves.

Happiness works in much the same way.

If you want some (or more), you’re going to have to reach out (or in) and help yourself.

Take really good care of yourself today, Dear One.

P.S.
There will never be a day in your life when this piece of advice will not be relevant, so remember it, always.

You are not in this alone, Dear One.

But you, alone, are the only one who can change things.

If you want things to be different, if you want a different life, different circumstances, different relationships, you’re going to have to start choosing differently.

You, and you alone, are the only one who can make that happen.

• Thank you for being a good friend
• Thank you for loving them as only you can
• Thank you for forgiving, letting go and allowing yourself to heal
• Thank you for taking a risk, being brave, speaking up
• Thank you for telling the truth, revealing yourself, sharing your story
• Thank you for doing something that you have never done before
• Thank you for going somewhere that you have never gone before
• Thank you for using your life to create
• Thank you for every moment that you choose to live with an open heart and an open mind

We are all better off because of it, Dear One.

And we wanted you to know it.

So, thank you.

You want more Love in your life, Dear One?

Love yourself more.

Give them an example to follow. Show them how it’s done.

But remember, and this is key, that Love is not something that you create. It is not something that you can acquire, accumulate, demand, manipulate, force, hoard, or steal.

The only way that you can experience more Love in your life Dear One, from them or from yourself, is to open yourself up more and allow it.

• You are so much stronger than you think you are
• You shine so much brighter than you think you do
• Your influence travels so much farther than you think it does
• Your love is far more healing than you know
• Your thoughts, actions and beliefs are so much more powerful, significant, and transformative then you believe them to be

Your impact on the world is great, Dear One, each and every day

So, what’s the big deal then?

You are.

Love is a feeling, an energy, an experience that you open up to, that you allow to flow through you.  It is a bright light that you shine on an object of desire.  It is something that you give away.   It is in its movement through you that love has its strongest impact on you, Dear One.  Receiving love is wonderful.  But it pales in comparison to the experience of giving it away.  Truly.

So when you find an object that inspires feelings of love in you, allow yourself to be moved by it, motivated by it, opened up by it.  Don’t worry about whether or not  you will get love back before you begin giving it.  Just love.  No grand declaration is necessary.  No change of relationship status is called for.  No long awkward conversations must first ensure.  None of that is necessary for you to give love and have the profound experience of loving.  All that is required of you is a willingness to do so.  And that we can see you’ve clearly got.

Don’t waist time trying to define, understand or dissect love before you start sharing it.  It is not necessary.  Just let it flow.  Love those that you do with your heart wide open and enjoy the experience as it flows through you out into the world, towards your intended and well beyond, without fear, without expectation, without hesitation.

Nothing bad ever came from simply loving someone, Dear One.

First, the good news:  You are not in control, Dear One.   You never have been and you never will be.

Now, the better news: Control is not what you want.

Control does not heal and control does not fix.  Control does not restore, guide, balance, connect, or love either.

The truth of the matter is that in the end, control is not all that it is cracked up to be.

So while you don’t have the ability to be in control, Dear One, what you do have is so much more valuable, useful, and infinitely more powerful.  And that is an unlimited ability to create.

Creativity,  the power of creation is the key to health, happiness, to balance, to endless possibilities Dear One, not control.

So the next time you feel as if things are out of control, don’t fret, don’t worry, don’t wish or pray that you had control over the situation.  Because that will never happen.

Instead try to remember that you can change it anytime that you would like simply by creating something new.
