How do you know if what you are feeling is your intuition telling you beware, proceed with caution, or turn around and run, or if what you feeling is nothing more than your own habitual fears and resistant patterns acting up on you again?

When trying to discern the difference between the two Dear One, remember this:

• Fear cuts you off from your source
• Your intuition connects you to it

Today, right now, in this moment Dear One, you are as good as you are ever going to get.

You can never, you will never, be any better than you are right now.

How can that be so?

Learning, growing, creating, becoming wiser, and more trusting, acquiring new knowledge and experiences makes you smarter, more creative, wiser, more knowledgeable and experienced, it does not make you better.

Who you are right now, exactly as you are, is absolutely perfect in the eyes of spirit.

Just because there is more for you to learn, figure out, do, and become, does not mean that you are lacking, broken or deficient in any way, shape or form.

Not now, not today, not ever Dear One, will you ever be in a position where your options, your choices, your possibilities, are controlled, dictated or determined by anyone other than yourself, at least not without your permission.

Please try to remember that the next time you look around and find yourself feeling as though your options are limited.

If you want things to be different Dear One, you’re going to have to start choosing differently; different thoughts, different words, different beliefs, different actions.

There really is no other way.

Are  you ready?

Toughing it out, pushing through, trying harder, sacrificing more, working smarter, powering on, or fighting the good fight will never be a more efficient or effective approach for helping you to get there, for helping you to achieve your goals Dear One, as getting happy will.

The only thing that makes their path more significant than yours, their contributions more valuable than yours, their successes more important than yours, their accomplishments more meaningful than yours Dear One, is you deeming it so.

Nothing more.

Trust us Dear One, they won’t stop loving you if you say “No” when you need to.

We know it can be tough to do when you so very much want to help, when you so very much want what’s best for them.

When someone that you love is telling you that they are in need, that they are hurting, scared, or confused, their attention is going to be mostly focused on themselves; on their discomfort and pain, on figuring out how they can relieve it as quickly as is possible, which is completely understandable.

But here’s what they are not telling you; they still want what’s best for you too.

If you come across an opportunity to be kind today Dear One, take it.

If you come across an opportunity to be gracious, take it.

If you come across any opportunity in your day to be compassionate, generous, forgiving, loving, supportive, encouraging, or strong Dear One, we implore you to please take it.

Why?

Because it is the very best way we can think of to demonstrate to you just what a powerful creator you really are.

Sometimes Dear one, it is not necessary of you to understand it.

Sometimes, it is just necessary for you to acknowledge it, accept it, let it go, and move on.

If you are going to tell yourself a story Dear One, about all of the things that could happen, about all of the possible outcomes, about anything that has not yet come to pass, why not make it a good one?
