Love is not a word Dear One.

• It is an action.
• It is a feeling, a rhythm, a way to be.
• It is an energy, an attitude, an answer, a solution.

Love is a lot of things Dear One.

But a word is definitely not one of them.

Remember that the next time that you hear it, or say it.

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.

You are not in this alone Dear One.

But only you alone can change it.

If you want a different life, you are going to have to choose it.

You’re the only one who can

Do you want to know how to eliminate doubt Dear One?

Never wonder “If”.

Only wonder “When”.

The best thing that you can do for yourself right now Dear One, is to stop, take a deep breath, clear your mind, and make a conscious connection with your heart.

Allow everything else to fade away, and trust what it is telling you.

The thought of being overwhelmed Dear One, the anticipation of not being able to handle it all, can actually be more stressful then the stress of doing all that you need to do.

So what can you do to reduce the stress?

Eliminate the anticipation.

• Instead of telling yourself “I can’t”, tell yourself “I can”
• Instead of telling yourself “it’s going to be a nightmare”, tell yourself  “everything is going to work out for the best”
• Instead of telling yourself  “I don’t have all the answers”, tell yourself  “I know all of the answers will come to me”

And believe it.

Life is stressful enough Dear One.

There really is no need for you to add to it.

We watch you struggling day after day Dear One, working so hard to hold on; to your job, to your relationships, to your health, to your beliefs, to that which is familiar, to that which is comfortable, to that which is already known to you.

And we ask ourselves why.

Why do you work so hard to hold on Dear One when you can trust, allow, and let go, and float, fly, sail, along your path instead?

Gratitude is more than a feeling Dear One. And it is more than an attitude too.

It is an act of creation.

When you are grateful, when you are feeling gratitude, you are in the process of creating more of, you are in the process of inviting more of whatever it is you are grateful for into your life.

Yes, being grateful does feels good Dear One, but you should know that it is also a really good investment of your time as well.

You decide what stays and what goes in your life Dear One.

You and only you.

And you do so with your choices.

You decide what stays by giving your attention to it.

You decide what goes by withdrawing your attention from it.

So what will stay and what will go today?
