We need you to trust yourself and speak up, Dear One, NOW.

Please don’t wait for all of them, some of them, or even one of them to agree with you first, before you share your perspective, before you choose to act on it, and expose it to the world.

Because that may never happen.

And what a shame it would be, for both you and for them, if your brilliance, your insights, your point of view, your thoughts, ideas, and opinions were never heard because someone else didn’t think of them first.

You are not lost, damaged or irreparably broken, Dear One.  You have not traveled so far off course that you need to be concerned that you will not be able to find your way back.

We want to assure you that there is nothing fundamentally wrong with you – you are not out of order – you do not need to be “fixed”.  (Although we can understand why it is that you might be feeling that way)

When you stop prioritizing those things in your life that bring you the greatest amount of joy, healing, comfort, support, relief, satisfaction or pleasure – it should be of no surprise that you are left not feeling your best.

But you don’t need to worry about it.  You simply need to decide to start choosing differently!

And once you do, we think you will be pleasantly surprised to discover just how quickly things can snap right back into place.

When push comes to shove, Dear One, you should know that sometimes the very best thing that you can do for yourself to get ahead is to step aside.

• Let those pushing, push along without you.
• Let those shoving, shove right by.

Believe us when we tell you that you really don’t want to end up where they are headed anyway.

What you do today matters so much more than what you did yesterday, Dear One.

Your energy, your attention, your effort, your focus, your creativity, your love, will be so much better spent here, rather than there.

To connect or not to connect.

That is a choice that is available to you in each and every moment of your day, Dear One.

Source, God, spirit, energy, light, life force, prana, Qi, whatever you should choose to call it, is available to you, to all of you, in limitless quantities, equally, at all times, without exception.

The frequency, quality, depth, and intensity, of your connection to it has absolutely nothing whatsoever to do with us, them, or it, and absolutely everything to do with you, and your desire and willingness to be open to it.

To connect or not to connect.

That is the question.

Now you tell us, Dear One….What is the answer?

Life is change, Dear One. There is nothing you can do about that.

But there is much you can do to impact and influence the direction of that change.

Up. Down. Left. Right. Backwards. Forwards.

So many choices.  So many possibilities.

And the best part is that you get to decide which direction is right for you.

Remember, Dear One, that regardless of where it is that you choose to sit, you will always be the designated driver of your own life.

Maybe you are not lost at all, Dear One.

Maybe you are simply in the process of moving into someplace new, someplace better, someplace you have never been before.

Did you ever think of that?

If you really want to be helpful today Dear One, do things that make you smile, that bring you pleasure, that bring you joy.

When you are happy, you are in a far greater position to help those around you then you are when you choose to sacrifice your own well being for theirs, regardless of how good your intentions may be.

There is no honor, Dear One, in remaining loyal to that which is hurting you – truly.  Be it a person, an idea, a set of circumstances, a set of beliefs – anything.

We don’t want to see you honoring unhealthy, abusive or painful commitments out of some sense of loyalty, or some sense of community or to maintain a dynamic that is familiar to you.

We want you to know that we will never see honor in remaining in a bad situation – not in the name of spirit/god/divinity – not because of a promise that you made – not because of a goal that you set for yourself – not in the name of love – regardless of how strongly you once believed in it.

NOW is the only time that matters.  NOW is the only moment that really counts. By letting go of unhealthy commitments that are causing you pain, you are freeing up your energy for more worthy pursuits – that will serve not only you, but the greatest good of all.

The universe wants you happy and smiling and content and grateful and joyful and creative.  And anything that stands in the way of you having or being all of these things is something that you can and should let go of.

Honor THAT.  Make THAT the new commitment that you will hold on to –  and remain loyal to –  and never let go of.  And let all of the others fall away.

The only way to experience change, Dear One, to get somewhere you have never been before, is to choose to do something you have never done before, to say something  you have never said before, to try something you have never tried before, to walk a path you have never walked before, to trust, have faith, be brave, leap.

We know that you know this already.

But we thought that you could use the reminder.

If you want something to be different today, Dear One, do something differently.
