Beauty is not something that you see with your eyes Dear One, it is something that you feel with your heart.

So how do you know if what you are looking at, if what you are seeing is truly beautiful, or if it is simply an illusion, a judgment, a product of your imagination?

Close your eyes.

If it disappears, then you know.

Do what makes you happy.

When you are happy, the whole world is better for it Dear One.

If you are feeling tight, restricted, tense, frustrated, boxed in, or cut off Dear One, it is very likely that it is because you are living a life that is entirely too small for you.

The remedy to this malady is a simple one:

• Remember that there is no limit to what is possible for you, no box you must fit in to, no plan you must adhere to, no path you must follow.
• Take a deep breath.  Expand your lungs. Unclench your fists hands.  Widen your eyes. Open your mind.  Open you heart.  And trust, believe what we are telling you is true.
• And then dream bigger, and allow your world to expand.

Which statement do you think best reflects your beliefs about happiness Dear One?

• My happiness is dependent on a certain person or people doing certain things, at certain times, in certain ways, with a certain attitude.

• My happiness is dependent on certain events, circumstances, objects or opportunities being available to me when I want or need them to be.

• My happiness is totally, completely, and most certainly dependent on me, and nothing else.

We just thought this was something that you might want to know about yourself.

Take a moment Dear One, to feel the beating of your heart.

It is the energy of the universe that is powering it don’t you know.

It is the vibration/the energy of your spirit that is powering your heart, that is rushing the blood through your veins, that is moving the air through your lungs, that is animating you in this physical reality.

Your soul/spirit powers you just like your creative energy powers the world around you.

That is why creation is considered a sacred act Dear One.  Because when you create, when you expel your energy out into the world, you are breathing life into it, you are animating the universe, keeping it alive.

Spirit and physical realities need each other to exist.  We power and empower each other Dear One.

This is how spirit perpetuates itself.

Life can be a harrowing experience if you let it be, Dear One.

And it can also be filled with  joy, love, freedom, relief and bliss if you let…it…be.

As always, the choice is there for you to make.

When you create peacefully Dear One, you are creating peace, you are attracting peacefulness to you, you are in the process of manifesting peaceful people, events, and circumstances into your life.

When you create from a place of stress, from a place of agitation, desperation, pessimism or fear, you are engaging in the process of manifesting into your life people, events, and circumstances that will bring you more of the same.

Create consciously Dear One, create with love, with excitement, with confidence and hope, and guess what it is that you are going to get more of as a result?

Creation is not just about creating Dear One; it is not just about the actions that you take to get something done.

There is so much more to it than that.

How you feel while you are doing it matters, so pay attention.

The idea is not to work yourself to the point of exhaustion Dear One.

The idea is to work yourself to the point of exhilaration.

If you work and work and work and at the end of the day, feel worse than you did than at the beginning, you may want to spend a little time reevaluating what it is that you are really working for, what it is you are really working so hard to create for yourself.

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.

Just the same way that helping others affords you the opportunity to feel good about yourself Dear One, to feel useful, to feel as if you are serving your life’s purpose, you allowing them to help you when you are in need, does the same for them.

Let them help you when you are in need Dear One.

It really is the only fair thing to do.
