If you really want to be useful Dear One, if you really want to help, don’t reach out and help them to carry their burden when they are in need.

Reach out and help them to put it down instead.

It is the glasses that you choose to wear, that you choose to put on each morning Dear One, that determines the way that you see the world each day.

You can choose to view the world and all of the people, places, events and circumstances in it through lenses of horror, self-pity, anger, frustration, judgement, disgust, or fear if you want.  Or you can choose to view the world through lenses of compassion, curiosity, optimism, hope, empathy, humor, or love.

Remember that the choice is yours.

You can choose to see things from any perspective that you’d like.  And if you should decide that you don’t like the view that you’ve chosen, if you should find that what you are looking at is not pleasing to you, know that you can change it anytime by simply putting on a different pair of lenses.

Every minute of every day we are speaking to you, encouraging you, guiding you towards that which you are wanting for yourself Dear One.   To tap in to, receive, understand this guidance it might be helpful for you to understand why we do this.  It is not to tell you what to do, dictate your choices or create your future.  That is something only you can do, and we would never take away the gift of choice and discovery from you.

• We are not concerned with the color of your shirt but want you to feel empowered by the clothing that you wear.
• We will not encourage you to love one person above another, but will encourage that which will help you to know and experience true love in your heart with another soul that is as open to it as much as or even more so than you are.
• We are not so concerned about what career/work you choose to do, but want you to know that how you spend your time and energy and how you choose to be of service to those around you does matter. We will guide you towards finding fulfillment in your work and encourage you/lead you towards that which will bring you greater enjoyment, meaning and authentic connection to others using the gifts/talents that you have.

We will encourage that which will expand your boundaries and your experience of the world – that which you will bring you the greatest joy while you are doing it.  Whether you are painting pictures, changing light bulbs or teaching children how to read – what you do is of less importance to us than how you feel while you are doing it.

You are contributing to the creation of your world all of the time – with every choice, thought and action that you take.   We want you to remember to enjoy yourself while you are doing it – to help you create from a place of joy, contentment and optimism.  Doing so is not only beneficial to you Dear One, but to all of those that share this world with you.

Want to know a trick Dear One, that will make taking that first step a whole lot easier?

Instead of imagining all that you could lose, all that could go wrong, and how far you have to go,  imagine all that you could gain, and all that could go right, and all the fun that you could have along the way.

Doing so will not make that first step feel any less steep, but it will make it a whole lot less scary and a whole lot more fun to take.

There are some things Dear One, that no matter how hard you try, you will never be able to do.

•  You will never be perfect.
•  You will never be able to make them perfect

You have our word on that.

So you can stop trying.

Does that help?

Your life will change the moment that you do Dear One.

And not a moment before.

Freedom is a state of mind Dear One.  It is an attitude, a feeling, a way of life.

It is not something that you have to wait to be granted, work to achieve, or receive permission to be.

You are free Dear One.

• Free to make up your mind about anything, anyway that you want.
• Free to change your mind about anything, anytime that you want.
• Free to experience the world from any perspective that you choose.

We implore you to remember that freedom is a state of mind, an emotion, a lens through which you view your life.

Freedom is not something that is granted by anyone else.

It is something that you claim for yourself.

You and you alone decide when you are going to choose to believe this, to embrace it, to live it, and to be free.

You can never undo that which has been done Dear One.

Once you have had an experience, for better or for worse, it is yours forever.

And regardless of how deeply you wish it could be so, no amount of regret, guilt, remorse, anger, self-pity, self-loathing, sadness, or hatred is ever going to change that.

But that does not mean that there is nothing you can do about it.

At any moment that you choose Dear One, you can decide to change the way that you feel about it, change the way you think about it, change what it means to you, or change its significance or importance in your life.

And changing that,  changes everything.

Just a reminder Dear One, that you absolutely can, do or be or have, every single thing that you want in your life, regardless of how great the distance may appear to be from where you are now to that which you are wanting – so don’t worry about it.

Believe it or not, adding the emotion of worry into the mix is not going to make things better.   Worrying won’t actually serve you in any positive or constructive way or help you to move towards that which you are wanting any faster, or with greater ease.

In fact – the exact opposite of that is true.  Worry will only serve to slow you down, and hold you apart from that which you are wanting longer than if there was no worry present.  But we suspect that you already knew that.

You can choose to focus your attention on, and take notice of, those things that inspire feelings of worry in you as you travel along your path or, you can choose to take notice of and focus your attention on those thing  that inspire feelings of joy, gratitude, anticipation, excitement and hope instead.

While technically you can worry your way to joy, accomplishment and success Dear One, because you are bound to let at least a few good feelings sneak in here and there along the way,  we wouldn’t recommend it.  We promise you that the journey will be a much more pleasant, pleasurable and expedient one if you choose to leave the worrying out of it.

To worry or not to worry?  That is the question

And the answer, is up to you.

Did you know that it takes just as much effort to create a connection to source Dear One, as it does to lose one?

If you should find yourself in a state of disconnection, please don’t be intimidated or discouraged by the effort that you think it will take to reconnect.

Because the truth is that the only effort that is required is the effort that it takes for you to become aware of your state of disconnection and make up your mind to flip the switch.
