What do you want to know about your soul’s agenda?
On: Being spiritual
Are you any less spiritual, Dear One, when you skip yoga, don’t meditate, pass on the weekly service, don’t make the donation, cut in line, think bad thoughts, do not want to help, or forget to give up your seat on the subway, bus, ferry, or train to the passenger that is older, weaker, needier, or more pregnant than you?
Absolutely, not.
You are a spiritual being no matter what you do.
But it is your belief, your consciousness, your level of acceptance of the fact that you are a part of something larger than yourself, that you are one part of a whole, that you are divine, and are at once a reflection of the world around you as well as the creator of it, that determines your level of awareness of this fact.
You can choose to be a spiritually aware person, Dear One, or you can choose to be a spiritually unaware person. And that choice can change from day to day. But you cannot, not matter what, regardless of what you do, think, say, or believe, choose to be anything other than divine at all times.
On: Feelings
Remember, Dear One, an emotion is something that you feel, it is not something that defines who you are.
On: Paying attention
Pay attention, Dear One.
Take notice of what happens to your thoughts and your actions when you remember to remain fully present in all that you do.
On: Staying safe
We can understand your desire to want to protect yourself, Dear One, to want to keep yourself safe from harm, to want to do all that you can to avoid injuring yourself, both physically and emotionally, and to want to keep others from doing the same. And you should know that we want that for you too.
You should also know that nothing makes you more vulnerable then cutting yourself off from your source, than shutting down your heart, ignoring your intuition and holding yourself back because you are afraid.
The more you trust, Dear One, the more you open up, the more you allow yourself to love, connect, and move forward with an open heart, the safer you will be!
On: Do you deserve this?
When unwanted things happen, Dear One, it is not uncommon for many of you to ask; Did I do something bad to deserve this? Am I being punished?
And our answer to this question is always the same; No, you absolutely did not.
Imbalance is not a punishment.
It is simply a reality of misalignment.
Like cold is a reality of snow, and heat is a reality of the sun.
So, no, Dear One, when unwanted things happen, know that it is absolutely not because you deserve it, and you absolutely are not being punished.
And now that you know, you can release yourself from the restrictive bonds of this belief, and allow yourself to get back to focusing your attention on the vitally important work of seeking alignment, and restoring balance.

On: There’s something you should know
You are loved, Dear One, beyond words, beyond deeds, beyond thoughts, beyond time, beyond space, beyond compare.
It’s important that you know that.
On: What you put into it
Create from an angry, frustrated, stressed out, fearful place, Dear One, and no matter how hard you work, how hard you try, how good your intentions are, the very best that you are ever going to be able to do is create more of the same.
You can’t make an apple pie with peaches.
Make sense?
On: How to not quit
When is it that you typically start thinking about quitting, Dear One?
What we have witnessed is that it is usually when you find yourself in a situation/experiencing something, that makes you feel as if you are not succeeding, as if you are failing.
You typically want to quit when you think that you can’t finish, win or cope, or when you do not see enough evidence of success.
Well you should know, Dear One, that the only time that you will ever find evidence of failure, or of a lack of success, is when you go looking for it.
So don’t.
On: The power of neglect
What is the best way that you can think of, Dear One, to lose a relationship with someone or something that you love?
What has experience taught you?
We’ll remind you of just a few:
- You can ignore it
- Disregard it
- Take it for granted
- Stop respecting it
- Stop engaging with it
- Withhold your whole heart from it
- Remove your attention from it
- Quit putting time and energy into it
If you did all or even some of these things in a relationship with something that you cared for, be it a person, a pet, a hobby, a talent, a project, a job, your health, etc., experience has taught you that over time the result would be that your connection to it would fade. And if you did it long enough, your relationship with it would eventually end altogether.
Well, the same holds true for relationships with people and things that you don’t love, that you don’t care for, that you don’t want in your life anymore too.
You don’t have to fight, struggle, work or try as hard as you’ve been trying to eliminate those things in your life that you don’t want there anymore, Dear One.
Simply start neglecting them and it won’t be long before they will leave on their own accord too.
On: Would it make a difference?
What if, in this moment, Dear One, you decided to love yourself unconditionally; to nurture yourself, to honor yourself, to forgive, care for and prioritize yourself, to accept yourself exactly where and as you are?
What if, in this moment, you decided to remember that you are worthy, that you are divine, that the reason that you are here is to find alignment, experience balance, and enjoy being alive?
If you did this now, Dear One, would it make a difference? Would the next choice that you make, the next answer that you give, the next action that you take, the next words that you speak, the next thought that you think, be any different?
