You should know, Dear One, that there is no force in the universe that is strong enough to change you if you are not ready to change, if you are not willing to change yourself.

But once you decide that you are, you should also know that there is no force in the universe that would, could, or will ever be strong enough to stop you.

Among all of the many wonderful, curious, creative, exciting, and perplexing reasons that you have come forth into this physical reality Dear One, you should know that expressing your judgment and being judgmental is not one of them.

You are here to love, to heal, to grow, to connect, to create, to learn, and to experience as much joy as you possibly can, as often as you possibly can.

You are not here to judge, Dear One.

So now that you know, you can feel free to stop doing so anytime that you would like.

Did you know that any decision that you make confidently, joyfully, with an open heart, from a good feeling place, regardless of how impetuous or how well thought out it may be,  will always bring you closer to that which you are seeking than any made from a place of tension, stress, confusion, turmoil or emotional distress?

It’s true!

You are a divine spirit, Dear One.

You are powerful beyond compare.

You are a direct channel through which source flows.

You are an essential part of all this is.

Through your thoughts, beliefs, choices and actions, you are the creator of your world.

And it’s time to stop pretending to be anything less.

Wishing it away, Dear One, praying for it to disappear, hoping that it will exit your life forever, will not bring you any relief, will not change anything in any meaningful way for the better.

But imagining you life without it will!

Can you see and appreciate the difference?

If you feel as if you have lost your balance, Dear One, if you feel as if you are having trouble getting both of your feet planted firmly on the ground, the single most important thing that you can do for yourself in this moment,  is to find it again.

How can you do that?

By asking yourself the following before every step that you take, and answering it honestly:

Will this choice, will this action, will this conversation, will this program, will this meal, will this purchase, will this person, will this decision, bring me closer to achieving a state of balance in my life or carry me farther away from it?

That’s how.

The unexpected, the mysterious, the miraculous, is so much less miraculous, Dear One, when viewed through the eyes of spirit.

And the ordinary, the everyday, the simplest, smallest acts are so much more so.

Shine, Dear One, right where you are.

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 don’t need to change your reality to begin to turn things around, Dear One — just your mind.
