Open your heart Dear One – Not so that you can let love in from somewhere outside of you.  We want you to open your heart and look within for the love that you already hold within you –   that you are made up of – that you are.

Open your heart and let that love out.  Let it flow through you and from you out into the world.  You are the source Dear one that you are longing to connect with/re-connect with.   The light of the origin of the universe shines through you.

Live your life from the inside out.  Shine your brightest.  Let the light of who you are radiate out of you and fall on anyone within its reach.

Live from the inside out, for within you is more than you will ever need, more than you could ever conceive of, more than you will ever fully know/realize until you open up to it.

Live from the inside out and you will never know from a shortage of love, or connection to source again.

Shine Dear One.

There is no honor Dear One, in remaining loyal to that which is hurting you – truly.  Be it a person, an idea, a set of circumstances, a set of beliefs – anything.

We don’t want to see you honoring unhealthy, abusive or painful commitments out of some sense of loyalty, or some sense of community or to maintain a dynamic that is familiar to you.

We want you to know that we will never see honor in remaining in a bad situation – not in the name of spirit/god/divinity – not because of a promise that you made – not because of a goal that you set for yourself – not in the name of love – regardless of how strongly you once believed in it.

NOW is the only time that matters.  NOW is the only moment that really counts. By letting go of unhealthy commitments that are causing you pain, you are freeing up your energy for more worthy pursuits – that will serve not only you, but the greatest good of all.

The universe wants you happy and smiling and content and grateful and joyful and creative.  And anything that stands in the way of you having or being all of these things is something that you can and should let go of.    Honor THAT.  Make THAT the new commitment that you will hold on to –  and remain loyal to –  and never let go of.  And let all of the others fall away.

Focusing your attention, your energy, on feelings of disappointment for all of the things in your life that are not the way that you want them to be – We can think of no greater waste of time Dear One – no greater contradictory behavior to getting that which you desire.

Get over your disappointments as quickly as you can and instead choose to focus your attention on those things that you would like to see manifested in your life.

Sulking only serves to keep that which you are wanting away

There truly is nothing for you to be afraid of Dear One.  We would love nothing more than to see you open up completely and embrace the idea of living, of being alive, without fear.   Try it and see.

Release your tight grip on the world and on yourself and trust, float for a little while Dear One.    It is not being lazy, or irresponsible or childish if you do.  We promise.

The river is there for you to interact with in any manner that you see fit.  You can walk in it.  You can run in it.  You can swim laps in it or you can choose to just let go and float and let the river carry you to wherever you are headed.  Be afraid if you want to be.  That is your choice.  But we are here to tell you that it won’t serve you the way that you think it will.  Fear does not slow things down or prevent thing from coming to pass. It only serves to diminish your ability to experience joy, peace and contentment in the moment.

You have become so accustomed to struggling Dear One, that you have come to believe that it is a natural, unavoidable part of your life.  But we are here to remind you that life is not meant to be a struggle.

Take full responsibility for your choices, all of them, good and bad, let go of that which does not serve you and accept what is and you can put an end to your struggling.

But remember Dear One, that responsibility and blame are two very different things.

Don’t blame yourself or others, for what is.  Struggling persists when you resist what is.

Blame is resistant, damaging, accusatory, and segregating.  Responsibility is accepting, forgiving, allowing and inclusive.

When you take responsibility for yourself, your environment, your circumstances, your choices and stop blaming yourself or anyone else, for the place you now find yourself standing,  you will greatly reduce the amount of struggle in your life Dear one, and by extension, you will be greatly reducing the amount of struggle in the world as well.

A worthy pursuit, don’t you think?

It’s all about timing Dear One.  And the time that should always hold the most significance for you is the present time – the now – this moment.

Part of what is so incredible about this physical reality that you are living, is that it allows you to break down eternity into moment-by-moment experiences.  It allows you to actively, fully and completely engage with each-and-every experience, one-at-a-time. That is what is truly miraculous about the gift of time, and so many of you are missing the boat completely on this one.

You, in this physical state, get to experience a sequential reality and not just a spectral reality, as is the experience of spirit.  That is one of the reasons you have come forth.  To experience one moment at a time.  So don’t be so quick to avoid doing so.  Don’t be so quick to toss moments aside.  Don’t be so quick to fill up each and every second to the point of distraction.  Don’t be quick to focus on “what next” instead of “what now”.  Don’t be so quick Dear One,  Period!

Don’t curse time for moving too fast or moving too slow. For prolonging your pain or cutting short your pleasure.  You are still the one in charge of how you choose to experience its passage.    That power has and always will rest with you, not with time.  Time is a gift Dear One.  Not a curse.   Make a choice to experience it with grace, ease and gratitude.  Use it.  Enjoy it.  Celebrate it, because the experience of it is one of the biggest reasons you have come forth.

This is not as good as its going to get.

There are no limits to just how good things can get Dear One.

Life does not always go according to plan Dear One.

Plan for that.

Count on it.

Decide ahead of time that you are going to be OK with falling off course – look forward to it even, so that when it happens, you are ready to enthusiastically, and excitedly embrace the opportunity and everything that comes along with it.

Remember – it’s the journey that counts.  You are not in search of a destination.  You are in search of new experiences.   And what better way to find something new, that you have never experienced before then to venture down a path that you have never ventured down before, that you didn’t even know was there.

What an enormous waste of your precious time to spend even one more minute of it wondering  “what if” Dear One.  Who cares about what could have been?  It didn’t happen!  It wasn’t!  All of the wondering in the world is never going to change that – ever – regardless of how much of yourself you choose to sacrifice to the idol of regret.

What a shame it would be to miss out on something really fantastically wonderful in the moment because you were wasting your time looking backwards at your past.

It’s time to let go of the disappointment.  It’s time to let go of the notion that you lost out or missed out on something.  Because you haven’t.  Trust us.  Everything that is meant to be, will be.

Let it go – release yourself from the prison of “what if” and join us once again in the present moment of “what is”.  You’re the only one that can free yourself.  You are the only one with key.  Use it.  We promise you, you won’t be sorry that you did.

Everyone is looking for/striving for/seeking beauty Dear One – Every single one of you, with no exception.  

The only problem is that more often than not, so many of you find yourself coming up short, frustrated with your search, not finding what you are looking for – left with the impression that beauty is rare or elusive.  Why?  Because many of you have no idea what beauty really is – so you look in all the wrong places, chase down all the wrong things trying to find it or create it.

Beauty is a feeling, an emotion, an energy.  It is the essence of who you are.  It is a state of openness, a state of trust and allowing, acceptance of the universe, of what is.  It is not flat abs and a shiny full head of hair.  It is not pouty lips, smooth tight skin or perfectly manicured nails .  Those things are all nothing more than limited physical attributes of the body.  True beauty is limitless.

To say that beauty is measured by how one looks – is like saying that intelligence is measured by how one smells.

Your eyes are not the determinate of beauty Dear One, your heart is.

True beauty is not about how you look – it is about how you see.

Choose to see beauty in everything around you Dear One and  you will.  It is there. It is built into everything.   As soon as you start looking for it, with your heart, you will find it and be in awe of its abundance.

May we suggest that you start with you.
