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?

Make all of your decisions today Dear One, as if there was someone standing beside you, holding your hand, encouraging you, supporting you, loving you, adoring you, believing in you, cheering you on every step of the way.

Why?

Because there is.

We really think that you are in need of a surprise today Dear One.

So, surprise yourself!

Do that which you have been afraid to do.

• Be brave
• Speak up
• Take a chance
• Follow your heart

We already know that you can, that you are able, that you are capable of doing these things Dear One.

We just think it’s time that you knew it too.

Don’t promise that you won’t give up Dear One – Promise that you’ll always do your best.

Don’t promise that you won’t be afraid – Promise to trust that all will be well.

Don’t promise that you won’t hate anymore – Promise that you’ll forgive

Don’t promise to stop doing that which you know does not serve you anymore – Promise to love and care for yourself, no matter what.

While they both may result in you choosing the same behavior, the difference between the two Dear One, is night and day.

If you are looking for simple directions Dear One, that will get you from where you are to where you want to be, here they are:

• Look up more than you look down
• Look ahead more than you look back
• Look more often in the direction of where you want to be headed, and less towards where you don’t.
• Follow your heart, trust your intuition and let your smile lead you.

And most importantly, try as best you can to allow yourself to enjoy the trip.

Now, get moving.

You are so much stronger, so much wiser, so much more capable than you believe that you are Dear One.

But don’t take our word for it.

Make today the day that you discover it for yourself.

The best thing that you can do for yourself right this minute, Dear One, is to take a deep breath, clear your mind, make a conscious connection with your heart, and trust what it is telling you.

• You are never going to be able to please everyone Dear One.
• You are never going to be able to get it all done.
• You are never going to be able to live your life without making mistakes, experiencing heartbreak, or suffering from loss.

These things just can’t be done, not by you or by anyone else.

But why would you want it any other way?

You learn valuable lessons from your mistakes, you grow stronger from your heartbreaks, and you are able to know and understand love in a much deeper and more intimate way through loss.

All of these so called “failures” contribute to your evolution Dear One, contribute to your humanity, contribute to the experience and depth of your life.

Why would you ever want to wish them away?

Today we want you to count your blessings Dear One.

Why?

Because when you are counting your blessings you are not counting your challenges, your struggles, your heartaches, your disappointments, your fears, your pains, your mistakes, or your losses.

That’s why.

We understand that identifying your wants, desires and preferences and attracting/allowing them into your experience does not always feel like an easy task Dear One.

You want things for yourself – for your family – for your friends – for strangers – for humanity – the list goes on.  Maintaining an awareness of all the things that are not in your life can be exhausting.

So today, we would like you to give yourself a break and take a day off from wanting.

We would like you to instead, spend your day focused on giving.

Ask yourself what you can give to every situation you encounter today.  What can you give to every person that crosses your path? What can you give to every interaction?

In every situation, look for what you can give, and give it.  Plain and simple.  Nothing more.

See where the path of the day takes you as a result.

You just may be surprised where you end up.
