The only way to know for sure Dear One, what love really is, is to experience it for yourself. It is not something that you can learn, that you can come to truly understand from a book, a song, a movie, a poem, or a class.

And the best way to do that, to have a truly authentic experience of love, is to love yourself, purely, totally, completely, and unconditionally. That means  thinking, speaking, and acting lovingly towards yourself, all the time.

Do that, know that experience, give yourself the experience of knowing what unconditional love looks, feels, sounds, smells, and tastes like, and you will never again have to ask yourself or anyone else the question ‘Is this love?’, because you will know.

You will then know from firsthand experience what true love feels like, so you will be able to recognize if what you are feeling for them is love, and Dear One, you will know how to recognize if they are truly loving you in return.

You are the author of your own story Dear One.

You are the one, the only one, who gets to decide what kind of story it will be.

So what do you feel like writing about today?

• Adventure, trust, love, compassion, forgiveness, bravery or perseverance?
• Taking a risk, reaching out, starting a new relationship, or ending an old one?
• Fear, guilt, getting by, playing it safe or making excuses?
• Jealousy, anger, ego, hatred, frustration, giving up, or giving in?

You’ve got total creative freedom.

Write yourself well!

Don’t worry that you have missed your chance Dear One, that you have missed out, that you are missing out.

You haven’t.

We promise.

You can’t.

It’s just not possible.

You are the only one who determines what experiences, what opportunities, what relationships you are, and are not meant to have in your life.

If it didn’t happen, if you didn’t choose it, then it was not meant for you.

Don’t regret, worry, or fret over that which you did not choose.

Instead, focus you time, energy, and attention on enjoying that which you did!

And if you find that you have made a choice that you are not enjoying Dear One, accept it, learn from it, and choose again.

There is no right answer Dear One.

There is no right place.

There is no right person.

There is no right time.

There is no right choice.

There is only right now.

Enjoy it!

Sometimes the most generous thing that you can do for them Dear One is to shine, and show them how it’s done.

Like the sunrise brings brilliant, magnificent, awe-inspiring beauty into the lives of all who  wake up to see it, so to does this day hold many great, wonderful, and beautiful surprises for you Dear One., if you are willing are wake up and see them.

There is no rule anywhere that says that you have to feel badly when you are dealing with a difficult, challenging, or trying situation Dear One.

Yes, it is true, that you do not always have control over your feelings.

But it is also true that you do always have control over your thoughts, which means that it is well within your power to choose to think a different one, a better feeling one, anytime that you would like.

If you want to create real, enduring, meaningful change in your life Dear One – you’ve got to work from the inside out.

Doing it any other way will only create frustration, anxiety, worry, and heartache, or generate temporary results at best, a lesson that we are sure that you have already learned through experience by now.

So, how do you do this?

Shift your mindset and prioritize the creation of internal beauty, balance, bliss, and love over the creation of all of the same in your external world, and you will be well on your way.

If you are going to do this Dear One, if you have made up your mind that you are ready to change, to grow, to embrace something new, to discover what’s next, to expand what you know, to move on from where you are now, you might as well go all the way. Right?

Opening yourself up, opening up your eyes, your heart, your mind, your awareness, your consciousness, your perspective, to a big picture, to the larger reality that you are a part of, is only half of the equation.

Letting go is the other.

Don’t stop now Dear One.

You’re halfway there.

Get excited, be excited Dear One, for the arrival of that which you are wanting most.

Don’t give up on it. Don’t give your attention to its absence. Don’t stand still and wait for it to get here.

Keep moving, keep choosing, keep putting one foot in front of the other, with excitement, anticipation, confidence and certainty – towards it, consciously and enthusiastically holding it as your dominant point of attraction.

OR….

You can choose to move forward with longing, apprehension, worry, doubt, frustration, and fear instead – and make that your dominant point of attraction if you would like.

Quite frankly we are not really sure why you would want to consciously make that choice.

But it is your choice to make.
