Sometimes Dear one, it is just not necessary for you to understand it.
Sometimes, all that is necessary is for you to acknowledge it, accept it, and decide to let it go and move on, redirecting your attention towards that which is wanted and away from that which is not.
What if, instead of being discouraged by what is Dear One, you got really, really, really excited about what could be?
You are meant to know more today than you did yesterday Dear One. Don’t punish yourself for that which you did not know before – praise yourself for that which you do know now.
And remember that this holds true for those around you as well. They too are in the process of learning. They too will know more tomorrow than they do today. While you are practicing acceptance and forgiveness of yourself as you learn Dear One, remember to practice it for those around you as well.
Don’t fault each other for that which you have not yet learned– Help each other to learn all that you can.
If you want to see more love in the world Dear One, start giving yours away more freely.
Don’t worry. You won’t run out.
The more you open you heart, the more you’ll have to give.
Open your heart Dear One.
Start spreading it around.
Do you want to know the fastest way to get from where you are to where you want to be Dear One?
Slow down.
Practice patience.
The more focused and centered you are, the more clarity you have, the more intentional your actions, the better you feel, the more effective you will be.
It is hard to feel good, grounded, centered, focused, and move with intention when you are stressed, frustrated, hurried, and rushing.
Practice patience Dear One, move with joy, clarity, and intention rather than speed, and watch as the distance between where you are and where you want to be shrinks at the speed of thought.
You never know when a pleasant surprise is going to show up Dear One.
The best thing that you can do to encourage one, to attract one to you, is to start right now anticipating its arrival!
What if today, instead of focusing your energy, your attention, your efforts on trying to avoid that which you do not want Dear One, you focused it on creating, seeking out, acknowledging, and celebrating that which you do want instead?
What is the matter with you Dear One?
What is the matter with your ideals? What is the matter with your face? What is the matter with your friends? What is the matter with your relationship? What is the matter with your wardrobe? What is the matter with your career?
Absolutely nothing or absolutely everything?
The answer is totally and completely up to you Dear One.
Absolutely no one else.
Do you want to know the best way to relieve stagnation Dear One?
Move.
Move one Dear One, and you will be creating room for movement to occur across them all.
There is no reason at all what so ever for you to address physical stagnation physically, emotional stagnation emotionally, or spiritual stagnation spiritually.
Create movement, allow movement to occur at your point of least resistance Dear One, instead of trying to force it to occur at your point of greatest resistance, and you will have found the key that will open the door to releasing stagnation across all areas of your life.
Why would you ever want to concern yourself with a subject such as punishment Dear One?
It really is not necessary you know.
Universal laws exist in perfect balance. Your point of attraction, what you project, what you put out there, what you focus your attention on, is what you get back.
That is true for everyone Dear One, you as well as them.
What you put out there, you will get back, and what they put out there, they will get back.
Why would you ever want to intentionally invite something as purely negative as punishment in your experience? And yet, that is exactly what you are doing when set out to punish another.
You are inviting/attracting/asking for punishment in return, as certainly as if you were inflicting it upon yourself.
Never mind about trying to punish them Dear One. Their actions will take care of that nicely, all on their own.
You are the one who determines what your point of attraction is, so might we suggest focusing your attention on something a little bit more pleasing to you instead.
And to touch on the subject of children and punishment for a moment – let us remind you that children learn by example. They are watching what you do and learning from what they see. Is punishment really the lesson that you want to be teaching them?
Consequences are not the same as punishment. You can teach a child that their actions have consequences without teaching them how to punish.
