Why hold on to a grudge, Dear One, when there are so many other more pleasant things out there that you can choose to hold on to instead?

Your expectations are a moving target, Dear One.

They can shift as frequently as your needs….. as your moods.

• When you need more – you expect more.
• When you need less – you tend to expect less, and be much more forgiving.

Expectations change – often.  So be careful not to put too much emphasis or importance on having them met.

Eliminate them all together, and you will be eliminating one of the greatest sources of disappointment from your life.

Why beat yourself up with should-haves, would-haves, and could-haves, Dear One, when what you didn’t do then, is, and always will be, so much less important than what you choose to do now.

In one form or another, Dear One, this question seems to come up for you a lot.

• What is the meaning of this?
• What was the meaning of that?
• What does it all mean?

And no matter how many different ways you ask the question, the answer is always going to be the same.

The meaning is always going to be whatever you decide that it is.

What it means to you, Dear One, can only be determined by you, and nobody else.

So may we suggest that the next time the question arises, that you ask yourself this instead:

• What meaning am I going to choose to give to this?

Doing so will ensure that you always have a definite answer to your question and, it will spare you from experiencing a great deal of unnecessary uncertainty waiting for an answer.

They are not the reason you are exhausted, Dear One.

You are.  You are exhausting yourself by trying to please them, by choosing to prioritize them and their needs above your own.

They are not the ones to doing this to you.  You are doing this all by yourself, to yourself.

And you can choose to stop doing it anytime that you would like.

Want to know how to make today a good day, Dear One?

Only make choices that make you smile.

If your body is telling you that it needs a break, Dear One, take it.

Trust us when we tell you that you will be so much better off choosing to take one now, while the choice is still yours to make.

How do you know if what you are feeling is your intuition telling you beware, proceed with caution, or turn around and run, or if what you feeling is nothing more than your own habitual fears and resistant patterns acting up on you again?

When trying to discern the difference between the two, Dear One, remember this:

• Fear cuts you off from your source
• Your intuition connects you to it

Choice is a gift, Dear One.

A gift that you are meant to enjoy, not fret, stress and agonize over.

Today we wanted to remind  you of that.  Today we wanted to remind you to enjoy your choices, each and every one of them.

Enjoy choice after choice after choice.

And if you make a choice that you don’t enjoy…. choose again!

If you want to know what freedom feels like, Dear One, if you want to know what it feels like to be free, to fly — you’ve got to be willing to jump.

There is no other way.
