Try to be reasonable today, Dear One, without compromising yourself, your heart, your own well-being, and you will quickly come to discover that it just can’t be done.

Why?  Because reason does not necessarily prioritize you and your well-being above all else.  That’s why.

But love does!

-Reason fuels compromise, most of the time.
-Love guides you to love, all of the time.

So when it comes to choosing today, Dear One, if you should find yourself in a circumstance that necessitates you to choose between one or the other, between love and reason, we implore you, in no uncertain terms, to choose love.

Choose love.
Choose love.
Choose love.

It will be to the benefit of you all if you do.

^^

Speak up, Dear One.  Speak up clearly and speak up often.  Speak your truth every chance that you get, in words and in deeds.  Be true to your heart, to who you are, to your feelings, your beliefs, and your desires, every second of every minute of every day if you can.

The effects of authenticity are cumulative.

The more you practice it, the more you will see it reflected back to you in the world around you.

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 universe, of all that it is, 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.

Let it go, focus your attention elsewhere, talk about something else, allow your thoughts to move on, and it will move on from you, Dear One.

Hold on to it, remain focused on it, keep talking about it, continue thinking about it, and it will remain with you.

That’s the secret.
Now you know.

Stop, take notice, and ask yourself, Dear One, do you want a future filled with more of what you are thinking about, saying, doing, focusing on, and choosing to give your energy and attention to right now?

If the answer is yes, carry on.

But if the answer is no, then you should probably do something about that right away.

Childhood is over, Dear One. You are no longer a little person living within an environment that you have seemingly no control over. You are an adult and whether you believe it or not, you are able to make decisions for yourself.

When faced with a trial that requires you to face your past, remember that whatever it is, it is no longer your current reality. You don’t have to bring it back into the present moment with you if you choose not to. Others might approach you on the subject with energy, impressions or patterns that used to exist back then. It may still be their reality.  That doesn’t mean that it has to continue to be yours.

Remember at those moments, that you can choose not to dive right back into old patterns with them. You can choose to stay right where you are, in the present moment and deal with the situation from where you now stand. Just because they are choosing to engage in old patterns, does not mean that you have to join them in this practice.

When facing the past, Dear One, anchor yourself in the present first, for that is the only place from where you can impact change.   KNOW that what you have learned and accomplished for yourself since that time, no one can take away from you, ever.

In the present, you get to decide what your past means to you. You can assign a lot of meaning to it or no meaning at all. That is completely up to you and only you.

1. Trust
2. Let Go
3. Connect

Sometimes the most powerful thing you can say, Dear One, is I’m sorry.

Sometimes the most powerful thing you can be, is forgiving.

Sometimes the most powerful thing you can do, is let go.

You never know when a pleasant surprise is going to show up in your day, Dear One.

The best thing that you can do to encourage one, to attract one to you, is to anticipate its arrival.

If you want to live a different life, Dear One, if you want to live the life of your dreams, you can. But you should know that it will come at a cost.  Sacrifices are going to have to be made.

You are going to have to sacrifice the old vision that you have had of yourself, the old story that you have been telling about yourself, the old limitations that you have been holding onto, the old patterns that you have been maintaining, the old heartaches that you have been nursing, the old hurts that you have been hanging on to.

Will it be difficult?

It could be.

Will it be worth it?

Absolutely.
