Never stop being amazed by the reality of tomorrow, Dear One, because it is a pretty amazing reality.

The fact that there is space that exists ahead of you – empty, blank space, full of possibility, just waiting for you to do with as you please, just waiting for you to fill it up with everything that you desire – should have you over the moon excited – every single day.

Tomorrow is like the extra space that you leave for yourself in your suitcase when you pack for a trip.   You leave yourself the extra room because you know that you are going to find good stuff when you get there that you going to want to take home with you.

Tomorrow is just like that.  It is the extra space ready to be filled with all of the wonderful,  unexpected treasures that you find along the way.

But here’s the catch – you must remember to leave room for it, Dear One.  You must remember to leave space for yourself when you are packing for your trip – for something new, something unexpected, something wonderful, something different to show up for you.   If you pack your bag to the top, if you plan out every last detail of your day ahead of time, if you cram your schedule full with the known, with the predictable, with the expected – you will be missing out on of the greatest treasures available to you in this lifetime.

So this evening as you are thinking about – planning for – anticipating tomorrow, Dear One – our recommendation to you is this – get excited and pack lightly.

Do you believe yourself to be a victim of the circumstances of your life, Dear One, or the creator of them?

Take a minute to think about it before you answer, because your reply will pretty much determine the course of the rest of your day, your week, your month, your year, your life.

Scream, if you need to scream today, Dear One.

Cry, if you need to cry.

Lie, run away, compete, prove a point, be petty, be jealous, be mad, be silent.

Do, be, say whatever you need to, Dear One.

Just don’t quit.

Just don’t quit.

Everyone is a teacher, Dear One.

Everyone around you has something to teach you.

Yes, everyone.

But here is the thing.

The value, the importance, the significance, the impact of the lessons that they have to share with you has practically nothing to do with how good of a teacher they are, and absolutely everything to do with how of good of a student you choose to be.

There are three things that you should know about guilt, Dear One:

• No one can make you feel guilty. Feeling guilty is a choice that only you can make for yourself.

•  Guilt’s greatest function is to serve as an anchor that holds you in a position of weakness.

•  The quickest way to relieve yourself from guilt is by taking responsibility, by shifting yourself from a position of weakness to one of authority over your own life.

To ride this ride, Dear One, you must trust.

To do it any other way makes it so much more difficult than it needs to be.

What are you meant to trust in?

Our answer to that question is right here.

^^

Sometimes trying harder is not the answer, Dear One.

Sometimes taking a break is.

Trust yourself enough to know if this is one of those times.

How do you know for sure?

Ask your heart.  It will tell you.

If only you knew, Dear One, just how extremely powerful, amazingly precious, uniquely gifted, and absolutely essential you are, just as you are, you would never again speak another unkind word, think another unkind thought, or do another unkind thing to yourself, ever again.

In your search for balance, Dear One, are you:

A:  Aligning yourself with what feels good to you, your passions, your priorities, your needs, your wants, your desires, your vision for your life?

B:  Aligning yourself with what you think is suppose to feel good , with what you think your priorities are supposed to be, with what you think you are supposed to want, need and desire for yourself or with what they want, need or desire for you?

If you are continually finding yourself out of balance, out of alignment, Dear One, your answer to this question may help you to understand why.

How do you move beyond your limits, Dear One?

Recognizing that limiting thoughts, beliefs, words, and actions are just that, limiting, is a really great place to start.
