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 may not feel it.

Whenever you get the desire to quit, Dear One, to throw in the towel, and give up before the end, ask yourself why it is that you want to do so, before you take any action.

• Is it because quitting will release you from a commitment that no longer serves you? Because it will bring you greater pleasure, joy, freedom, and opportunity to pursue something else that you believe will serve you?

• Is it because quitting will release you from having to do the hard work required to complete a difficult task?  Because it will prevent you from confronting your fears, from facing uncomfortable feelings, from the discomfort of growth and moving beyond that which is familiar to you, that which feels safe, into a place that could lead you to who knows where?

Quit or don’t quit, Dear One. That is your choice.

But whatever you decide, we just want to make sure that you are fully aware of your reasons for doing so, before you make it happen.

The only time that what they say, what they think, and what they believe matters, Dear One, is when you decide that it does.

Please remember that today.

Emotional security is a state of mind, Dear One.

One that you can choose to experience anytime that you would like.

You can choose to allow yourself to experience it when you have the relationship that you want, or the job that you want, or the salary that you want, or the house that you want, or the family that you want, or the body that you want.

OR

You can choose to allow yourself to experience it right now, just as you are.

It’s totally and completely up to you!

*If you have questions about how to make that happen, please feel free to ask.

[NOTE TO SELF]

Remember, Dear One, that regardless of how scared, chaotic, lost, or out of control you feel, that the world feels right now, your center, your home,  is only one slow, deep breath away.

And we are there.

Always.

Do you want to know how you can be sure that you are always making the wise choice, Dear One?

We’ll tell you.

• The wise choice is never going to be the angry choice.
• The wise choice is never going to be the desperate choice.
• The wise is never going to be the fearful, insecure, jealous, vengeful, or spiteful choice.
• And it is most definitely not ever going to be the malicious, resigned, manipulative, defensive, or controlling choice either.

So, if you are trying to figure out what the wise choice is, Dear One, and the choice you are about to make comes close to resembling any of the above, know that you have not found it yet.

Being brave does not require that you be physically or emotionally strong, Dear One. It does not require that you be fearless or aggressive either. Nor does it require you to take a risk, be courageous, or just-do-it.

All that is required for you to be brave, Dear One, is trust.

The right thing to do cannot be determined by thinking it through, Dear One, no matter how much time you dedicate to the task.  Thought will always be limited by experience.

And the right thing to do is rarely the logical choice.  As we are sure that you have learned first hand by now, logic can be grossly deceptive.

If you want to know how to figure out what the right thing for you to do is, Dear One, we’ll tell you.

The right thing for you to do, is always going to be, whatever it is that your heart is telling you to do.

So if you want to save yourself a whole lot of  time, energy, and frustration, just trust it, right from the start.

Love is not meant to be tough, Dear One.

Today, just love.

Let that be enough.
