Trust, believe, keep an open heart and an open mind, and you’ll feel us with you every step of the way Dear One.

Don’t, and we’ll still be with you, only you just won’t feel it.

Before you do anything else today Dear One, stop and do something that makes you smile.

Think a happy thought, dance a jig, tell someone you love them, eat a peanut butter and jelly sandwich, anything at all will do.

If you can’t do it, if you can’t think of even one thing to do that will make you smile, stop, sit down, and do nothing else until you can.

Trust us Dear One, this will not be a waste of your time.

In fact, it just may be one of the most productive things you do for yourself all day.

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

And not a moment before.

• Their breath is not your breath
• Their eyes are not your eyes
• Their skin is not your skin
• Their lips are not your lips
• Their heart is not your heart

Listen to what they have to have to say Dear One, ask for their advice, guidance, support and perspective, consider their point of view — if you think it will help.

But in the end, the experience of it will be yours and yours alone; seen by your eyes, sensed by your skin, touched by your lips, felt by your heart.

In the end, it is not about what they want for you Dear One, it’s about what you want for you – and you are the only one that can decide that.

Contrary to popular opinion Dear One, action is not necessarily the best remedy for overcoming fear.

• So you can stop trying to force yourself to do that thing that you are afraid to do.
• You can stop trying to muster up every last bit of courage that you’ve got to “just do it”, when in your heart you truly believe that you can’t or that it is going to cause you harm.
• You can stop repeatedly traumatizing yourself as a means to healing.

We would never ask that of you or encourage you to do so.

Why?

Because you know as well as we do that your beliefs create your reality.

So if not through action Dear One, then how do we recommend that you overcome your fears?

By changing your beliefs.

And that change can be as simple as moving from a mindset of “ I can’t” to one of “I can”.

And then once you have done so, once you have changed what you believe, then you can practice it, then you can prove it to yourself through action.

The next time you are feeling lonely, alone or disconnected Dear One, instead of feeling badly about it, instead of focusing on those feelings, which will only serve to exacerbate them, use them as an opportunity to grant yourself permission to take some time to go within.

When you do, you just may get a glimpse at the eternity, the universe, the divinity that lives within you, that connects you to everyone and every other living thing in your world.

And once you see that, it will be difficult for you to ever to feel lonely, alone or disconnected again.

Just how powerful are you Dear one?

That is something only you can decide.

Being patient and waiting are two very different things Dear One.

Patience is an act of allowing, of knowing, of creating, of quiet anticipation.  It is fluid, changing, and constantly in motion.  It is a powerful, empowering, and confident choice that requires your active, conscious participation throughout.

Waiting is a passive act.  It is stagnant.  It lacks action, energy, movement, and active participation.   It can be frustrating, stressful, and emotionally unpredictable.  It is an inert, submissive, and unempowered choice that does not require much of you once the decision to wait has been made.

So when you are in a spot Dear One, where you think that what happens next is totally and completely out of your hands, think again.

You’ve still got one more choice to make.

And a pretty important one at that.

The sting caused by the illusion of rejection is a small price to pay for the gift of clarity Dear One.

And you should know that gratitude serves as a great balm for the pain.
