This is how it works.

Peaceful thoughts, peaceful words, peaceful actions, and peaceful beliefs lead to a peaceful day.

So, what kind of day would you like for yourself today, Dear One?

Whatever your answer, make sure that your thoughts, words, actions, and beliefs reflect it, and it will be so.

If you want things to be different Dear One, you’ve got to begin to choose differently.

It really is the only way.

It is OK to miss them Dear One.  It is simply an indication of a space being open now inside of you where once it was filled.

You can choose to hold that space open and keep it void of something new for as long as you want.  But you should know that holding open an empty space in a universe that is fluid and full will require a great deal of effort – and could result in a great deal of heartbreak.

But in contrast to this – to missing – know that this space will not remain empty for long, if you don’t want it to.  The universe fills spaces.  It is one of the things that it does quite well – with elegance, grace and ease.  It will fill up the space with something wonderful, if you ask it to, if you will allow it to.

It’s OK to miss Dear One.  It’s OK to continue to hold on and remember.  But please don’t choose to spend too much time with you attention on the absence of what was.

When you are ready, choose instead to focus you attention on those thoughts, feeling and memories that bring you joy, that make you feel good, that bring a smile to your heart and to your lips.  And as you allow your energy to shift, allow yourself to start to get excited about what is yet to come –  about what is headed your way – right this very minute.  Because If you are looking forward to it with joy, love and excitement in your heart and a smile on your face – you can be sure that  when it gets here, it is going to be oh so very good.

Friend, boyfriend, lover, wife, spouse, partner, neighbor, sister, brother, cousin, best friend, confidant, significant other, soul mate, buddy, companion, associate, cohort or chum. 

You have lots of ways of defining, categorizing and labeling your relationships Dear One.  And we realize that these measures can be greatly varied, intricately complicated, highly emotional, and hold a great deal of significance for you.   We know that they strongly influence and in some cases totally determine how you act towards someone, how you think, feel and react around them, and your expectations of them.   We get it. We really do understand.

But from where we are standing there truly is only one measure by which all relationships are defined, categorized and labeled — and that measure Dear One, is the amount of love shared.

As we see it, how you choose to define a relationship is so much less significant than the amount of love that you choose to bring to it and allow yourself to experience within it.

So, what is in a name Dear One?

As far as we are concerned, as long as there is love there, not a whole hell of a lot.

Do you want to know the best way to get what you want from them Dear One?

We’ll tell you.

Give it to them.

If you don’t ever trust yourself enough to really let go and follow you heart Dear One, how do you ever expect to get to where it is trying to lead you?

When you first wake up, Dear One, this is the time to begin creating the day that you want for yourself. This is the time to think about, get excited about, anticipate, look forward to, and get ready to move towards, find, create, and embrace all that you want – and for nothing else.

Laugh Dear One.  Laugh out loud, every chance that you can.  Don’t hold back.

Why?

Because laughter is an elixir and it  can cure what ails you.  Because you are never more open, more receptive, or more free then when you are loving and laughing.  It is like standing outside in the rain and trying not to get wet.  That is what laughter is like for healing.  You can not stand uncovered in the rain without getting wet, and you can’t laugh without allowing well-being to flow to you, through you and from you.

Now is the time to lighten up, Dear One.

It really is okay to not take it all so seriously – whatever it is – even the really, big, important, seriously scary stuff.

We say this to you not to disrespect, trivialize, dismiss or belittle whatever very difficult, important or challenging situation, circumstance or event you might be dealing with at the moment.

We say this to you to help you to remember that you can choose to approach it, deal with it, and move past it with ease, grace, joy, confidence and levity just as easily as you can with intensity, struggle, stress, drama, fear, and doubt.

Maybe you are not lost at all, Dear One.

Maybe you are simply in the process of moving into someplace new, someplace better, someplace you have never been before.

Did you ever think of that?
