On: A little encouragement
Why are we always encouraging you to look for the best in every situation Dear One?
Because doing so feels so much better than not doing so.
And the better you feel, the better things get.
That’s why.
Why are we always encouraging you to look for the best in every situation Dear One?
Because doing so feels so much better than not doing so.
And the better you feel, the better things get.
That’s why.
There is no rule anywhere Dear One, that says that you have to feel badly when dealing with a bad situation.
Yes, it’s true that you can’t always choose how you feel.
But it is also true that you can always choose what you think.
And you can choose to think a different thought, a better feeling thought, anytime that you would like.
Some may think that doing so is nothing more than an exercise in denying what is.
But we would call it, getting yourself into a better feeling place so that you can more effectively deal with what is.
We challenge you to try and find something wrong with that.
Love is not a word Dear One.
Love is a lot of things Dear One.
But a word is definitely not one of them.
Remember that the next time that you say it, or hear it spoken to you.
If your goal is to prolong your suffering Dear One, to make it worse, add to it, to expand upon it, and invite as many people as you possible can to join you in it, then by all means keep talking about it, thinking about it, and focusing as much energy as you possible can on it.
But if your goal is to feel better, to let it go, and to move on to something better, then you’re going to have to start talking about, thinking about, and focusing on something better.
Feeling overwhelmed Dear One?
You know there is a relatively simple solution that can help you to not feel that way anymore.
Instead of focusing your attention on feeling overwhelmed, on all of the things that are overwhelming you, focus it on feeling accomplished, empowered, balanced, peaceful, organized, capable or some other desired emotional state.
We said it was simple Dear One, we never said it was easy.
En este momento tú puedes elejír algo diferente, puedes tener una experiencia diferente, puedes ser valiente, puedes arriesgarte un poco, puedes largar, puedes amar un poquito más, dar un poquito más, ser un poquito más gentíl (a ellos y a tí), puedes expresarte, puedes confiár, puedes tratar nuevamente, puedes perdonar.
Esto es solo un recordatorio, en caso que te olvidaste.
There are two ways that you can choose to respond to any situation Dear One:
One defines you as powerless and the other as powerful.
Which do you want to be today?
There are many things in this world that you can’t control Dear One.
Thankfully, your thoughts are not one of them.
If the thought that you are thinking right now is not making you feel better, is not bringing you joy, is not offering you some sense of relief, we want to remind you that it is well within your power to choose another.
Some thoughts can be so overwhelming, so all encompassing, so powerful that it can be easy to forget that you are choosing them.
But make no mistake Dear One, you are.
Make every excuse you can think of to feel good (or better) today Dear One.
That is all.
When you are hurting Dear One, when you are in pain, please remember this; you have come to this place to heal this place.
You did not end up here because you did something wrong. You did not end up here because you are being punished. You did not end up here because you are being tested, tortured, or asked to prove yourself.
You ended up here Dear One, for one reason and one reason only, because you are being given an opportunity to heal.
Please take it.
