The path of least resistance does not lead to sameness, Dear One, it leads to change.

How?

We’ll explain.

The world is constantly changing, all the time.  Everything within and around you is always in a state of change.  It is either growing or decaying, without exception.

In each and every moment of your life you are changing too, you are different, you are not the same person, in the same environment that you were the moment before, and therefore do not have the same perspective that you had the moment before.

So therefore while you may think that doing nothing will lead to nothing and will result in everything remaining unchanged, it is just not true.  The truth, Dear One, is actually that if you do nothing, absolutely nothing but allow life to flow and yourself to flow along with it, no moment, no day, no experience in your life will ever be the same, could ever be the same, as it was the moment before.

Can you see that?

Sameness requires effort. Sameness requires action. Sameness can only happen if you choose to create it, if you choose to do, and be, and say, and think something over and over and over again in an environment of constantly changing conditions.

Can you see that?

Choose to love yourself first, Dear One, and show them how it’s done.

We can think of no more powerful gift that you could give them today then to help them to know the experience, the joy, the potential, the pleasure of self-love/self-care.

Allow yourself to relinquish control, Dear One.

Allow yourself to bond with your own heart.

Allow yourself to feel its beating.  Allow yourself to feel its wanting.  Allow yourself to feel its passion.   Allow yourself to notice its subtleties – when it is happy, or glad, or giddy, when it is questioning, when it is certain, when it is emotionless, when it is filled with joy, filled with regret, filled with sadness, filled with love.

Allow yourself to feel it all, Dear One.  Allow yourself to want more for yourself than just the absence of discomfort, the absence of pain, the absence of desire.

Please do not make it your hearts ambition to feel as little as possible, Dear One.

For that would be as great a loss as choosing to close your eyes forever after witnessing only one sunrise.

Keep looking forward, Dear One, no matter what.

Where you are going matters so much more than where you have been.

There truly is only one choice for you to make everyday, Dear One, and that is to choose to allow life to flow through you, or to choose to not allow life to flow through you.

Every other decision that you make is just a expression of either one or the other.

Why pray for, hope for, talk about, and seek out change Dear One, if at every possible opportunity to embrace it you choose that which is known to you, that which is comfortable, that which is familiar, that which feels safe, over that which is new, different, unknown, uncertain or unpredictable?

Are you not ready?  Are you afraid? Are you unaware of the fact that the choices you are making are keeping you right where you are?

Praying for, hoping for, talking about change is a great start Dear One, but it’s not enough.

If you are truly ready for change in your life, you’re going to have to remember to choose it.

• Listen to the wisdom of your body, Dear One, to heal and strengthen your body.
• Listen to the wisdom of your mind, the logical voice in your head, to nurture and expand your intellect.
• Listen to the wisdom of your heart, your intuition, to tend to your spirit, to guide loving yourself and others.

Body/Mind/Spirit; each has its own intelligence, its own guidance system that is talking to you, telling you what is needed to keep it running smoothly, to keep things in balance.

Trust the wisdom of each to take care of itself.
Your job is to listen and act on its behalf.

The mind is not meant to lead the heart, Dear One.
And the spirit is not meant to lead the intellect.

They all serve very different functions.

And when all are in balance, and working together as they should – you will be balanced, you will feel balanced.

It can be far too easy to forget this, Dear One, so today we are going to remind you;  Your body is a temple.

It is the sacred space that houses your sacred soul.

And it should be treated as such.

What does that mean?

It means that a even little (and especially a lot of) destruction is NEVER acceptable within a sacred space.

It means that under no circumstance is it ever acceptable to intentionally cause harm to a sacred space.

• A little (or a lot of) fun is absolutely acceptable.
• A little (or a lot of) risk is absolutely welcomed.
• A little (or a lot of) experimentation is absolutely encouraged.

But intentionally harming a sacred space, your sacred space, is never a good thing to do.

This can include harmful acts of physical, emotional, or spiritual destruction.

Honor your body as sacred, Dear One, and you will be amplifying its ability to serve as an expression of divinity in your life.  Ignore this truth and that expression will be significantly dampened.
