Please keep front of mind today, Dear One, all day, that you are here to live YOUR life.

You are here to have a very personal and unique experience of being YOU.

Your singular purpose for being alive is to live YOUR life, YOUR way, connected to YOUR source, creating what only YOU can, as only YOU can do it.

You are absolutely not here to follow, mimic, emulate or become more like  anyone else.  Or to be liked, loved, accepted, admired, respected, or adored by anyone but YOU.

Got it?

^^

There is no divine schedule, Dear One.

• There is only you and your journey.
• You and your experiences.
• You and your relationships.
• You and your attitude, choices, behaviors, patterns, and beliefs.

You are not late. You are not behind.  You do not have to hurry to catch up.  You did not miss your chance.  And you most definitely did not get it wrong.

How much stress, how much pressure, how much disappointment do you think you could eliminate from your life, right now, by choosing to believe us, by choosing to believe that what we are telling you is true?

Breathe easy, Dear One.  You are right where you need to be.

And you are right on time.

Our words are not always going to be comforting, Dear One, because comfortable is not what is always going to serve you best.

(But they will always be supportive, encouraging, optimistic and filled with unconditional love.) 

Joy is not rooted in comfort.  Joy is rooted in movement, in progress, in forward motion, and most importantly, in growth.

Think about your greatest moments of joy, Dear One.  Think about where they came from. Did they originate out of comfort, from comfortable circumstances, or from something else?

It is not our job, our goal, or our intention to make you feel comfortable.

It is our honor, our pleasure, our delight to help you grow, to learn, to acquire knowledge, to move forward, to make progress and experience as much joy as you possibly can.

And making you feel comfortable has very little to do with that.

What you didn’t do then, Dear One, is and will always be so much less significant than what you choose to do right now.

Whether you are painting a picture, writing a poem, baking bread,  fixing cars, teaching Spanish, selling stocks, playing the flute, designing skyscrapers, sketching tattoos, balancing spreadsheets, or a spoon on the end of your nose – what you do today, Dear One, is of so much less importance to us than how you feel while you are doing it.

If someone is not living up to your expectations of them, Dear One, instead of being disappointed, instead of trying to change them, instead of trying to fix them, instead of trying to force yourself to not care in order to put an end to your unhappiness, why not simply change your expectation of them instead?

Now, wouldn’t that be easier?

If it didn’t make you happy yesterday, or the day before that, or the day before that, what makes you think it is going to make you happy today, or tomorrow, or the next day?

Unhappiness is much too high of a price to pay for loyalty, Dear One, to a person, idea, concept, community, or belief.

No one can tell you what you are worth, Dear One.

It just doesn’t work that way. You have to tell them.

And you do, everyday.

You tell them with every choice that you make, with every word that you speak,  and with every action that you take.

If you are still looking at the problem, Dear One, the solution will continue to elude you.

The only time that what they say, what they think, and what they believe matters, Dear One, is when you decide that it does.

Please remember that today.
