What do all of these question have in common Dear One?
Your answer to them is the only answer that matters.
We can feel your impatience Dear One, your restlessness, your desire to move on from where you are now, to someplace new, to where you want to be.
We can see you searching, looking, trying, struggling, experimenting, stumbling around looking for the key to door that you think will get you there.
Well, we’ve got some bad news for you. No matter where you look, no matter how hard you try, no matter much you visualize it, no matter how much you want it, you are never going to find that key Dear One. Ever.
Why?
Because it doesn’t exist.
The door is already open.
All you need to do is walk through it.
Hate is a powerful emotion Dear One, one that is often felt very deeply. And if you are feeling it, we are sure that you have your reasons.
Hate can be a difficult thing to let go of, even if you want to, especially when you feel that you have justifiably earned the right to feel it.
We will not ask you to stop hating Dear One. We would never ask you to do something so difficult. We would never ask you to do something that you do not want to do.
But what we will ask of you is that you stop giving hate your attention.
What we are asking of you is that you not spend even one more minute of your time, your thoughts, your energy, your life, focused on that which you hate, and instead choose to focus on that which you enjoy, on that which you love, on loving each other instead.
You see Dear One, hate only serves to bring more hate into the world, nothing more. It doesn’t fix anything, heal anything, even any score, or make things right, and it never will.
But love on the other hand has the power to transform, to heal, anything, even hate.
We promise you Dear One, that everything will be ok, that you will never be without us, that there is no limit to what is possible for you, that inspiration is divine guidance and that following it will never lead you astray, that you will always be beautiful in the eyes of spirit, that you will be loved for all of eternity, that there is always an answer, that you are never trapped, that you can heal from anything, that nothing lasts forever, that if you can imagine it you can create it, and that we always keep our promises.
Do you want to be happy today Dear One?
If you do, then you’ve got to remember to choose it.
These are all just different ways for you to exercise lazy Dear One.
And we don’t think that being lazy is a good enough reason for you to not have everything that you want.
Do you?
When facing a complicated, complex or convoluted situation Dear One, what if instead of trying to address the most difficult, overwhelming or confusing part of the equation first, you started by addressing the simplest?
And what if, once you did that, once you handled the easiest part of what was in front of you, you then chose to address the simplest, most manageable piece of what was remaining?
And so on and so forth.
What do you think would happen if you approached your complicated situation in this way Dear One?
We can tell you what we think would happen.
We think that it wouldn’t take you very long to discover that your very complex, complicated and overwhelming situation, did in fact, have a very simple solution after all.
But don’t take our word for it.
Choose joy today Dear One, every chance that you get.
Be vigilant about it.
Practice it, a lot.
Practice it until you get really, really good at it.
Practice it as if your future happiness depended on it.
Because it does.
How do you treat someone when you love them Dear One?
Do you see where we are going here?
Why hold on to a grudge Dear One, when there are so many other more pleasant things out there that you can choose to hold on to instead?
