What do you want your contribution to be today, Dear One?
Did you know that being afraid will not actually protect you, Dear One? That it is no safer than being confident? That both require the same amount of effort and consciousness to maintain?
P.S.
Feeling fear and being afraid are not the same thing.
Trust us, Dear One, they won’t stop loving you if you say “No” when you need to.
We know it can be tough to do when you so very much want to help, when you so very much want what’s best for them.
When someone that you love is telling you that they are in need, that they are hurting, scared, or confused, their attention is going to be mostly focused on themselves; on their discomfort and pain, on figuring out how they can relieve it as quickly as is possible, which is completely understandable.
But here’s what they are not telling you; they still want what’s best for you too.
Let your actions be motivated by love today, Dear One, above all else.
Why?
Because we said so.
And because doing so will feel a whole lot better than not doing so.
P.S.
Choosing a positive conscious motivation at the start of your day will prevent your actions from being motivated by negative unconscious ones, such as fear, distrust, anxiety, guilt, sadness, revenge, etc.
You want to know how to get rich in a hurry, Dear One?
Celebrate joyously, gratefully, enthusiastically, and unabashedly all that you have, all that you are, all that you see, all that is already in your possession, and all of the abundance that surrounds you each and every day.
Give all of your attention to that, Dear One, and to nothing else.
Right now.
If you are up for the challenge, Dear One, we would like you to make a commitment to yourself today to only speak your truth, and to take notice of how it feels to you to do so.
What does that mean?
Do you think that this is a silly experiment, Dear One, and that you are already living your truth?
We’ll there is one way for you to find out!
Why struggle, when you can trust, Dear One?
Why pretend when you can be yourself?
Why fight when you can accomplish so much more by allowing?
Why be hard on yourself, when you can choose to be loving, caring, nurturing, and supportive of yourself instead?
You can’t stop all hurts from ever reaching you Dear One, but you can stop making them worse for yourself when they do.
Honor yourself and acknowledge your own divinity, with every thought, with every word, with every choice, with every action and with every interaction that you have today, Dear One.
Why?
Because you are deserving of nothing less.
Listen to what they have to have to say, Dear One, ask for their advice, guidance, support and perspective, consider their point of view — if you think it will help.
But in the end, the experience of it will be yours and yours alone; seen by your eyes, sensed by your skin, touched by your lips, felt by your heart.
In the end, it is not about what they want for you Dear One, it’s about what you want for you – and you are the only one that can decide that.
Trust yourself, Dear One. Now.
Don’t wait for the “them” to agree with you first.
Because that may never happen.
And what a shame it would be, for both you and them, if your brilliance, your perspective, your thoughts, your ideas, your opinions, were never shared because someone else didn’t think of them first.
