It’s never too late to make amends for any perceived mistakes you made, to in some way repair any damage you feel you have caused to another. It’s never too late to say that you are sorry for hurting someone or letting someone know that you love them. There are very direct ways, but sometimes the more subtle ways are more effective, more acceptable, and more reliable. Sending positive thoughts and affirmations to another person, good vibrations of love and appreciation, will land solidly upon them and they will feel so much better, and so will you. It’s very enjoyable to make someone’s day so much better without ever telling them that you have been thinking about them. Silent love is stronger than any spoken words of affection.

Sending you love,

It’s really important how you speak to yourself, how you phrase things to yourself so that what you say matters. If you constantly say what you don’t want in your life, that’s what you will get, just what you don’t want. But if you constantly say what you do want in your life that is what you will get. There is a big difference in what you don’t want and what you do want. Why waste your time and precious words on constantly repeating what you don’t want, what you don’t like or don’t appreciate. Put all of your energy into positive statements, declaring to the Universe what you do want in your life, in no uncertain terms. Be definite, be positive, be clear.

Sending you love,

A new week, a new day, a new opportunity. Find the sacred in this day, within your heart, the one thing that has meaning for you right now, and give it space to expand. Give it room to experience growth. Move something out of the way so it can have a little more room in your life today. Perhaps you just need to move an old thought out of your head and let something from your heart replace it. Perhaps an old habit that no longer serves you needs to be left behind and a new and more beneficial activity needs to be instituted instead. Perhaps you have longed to start something that has meaning for you and you decide that this is the perfect day to give it a chance. Life is meant to be lived to the fullest. Give it a chance by doing something you have longed to do that is right and beneficial. Make it the first step on your journey of real change.

Sending you love,

Hold yourself as accountable as you hold everyone else. It is often so easy to see what others should be doing in their lives, but what about you? What are you not getting? What are you not paying attention to? What are you continuing to do that does not provide you with your best options? What needs to change? The change of seasons, or even just a new day, is the perfect time to institute something new into your life. Start something new today. You will soon know if it’s something that is right for you. If not, then choose something better. You have the opportunity to choose something better every day of your life. Start making it a habit.

Sending you love,

Allow your inner self to speak to you more often. When your inner self speaks to you, with its clear and sober voice, you know how right it is, how meaningful it is, and how impactful it can potentially be, if you take it seriously. In times of outer change inner changes are equally necessary. What is happening outside of you right now that is pointing you inward? What are you being shown about yourself that needs attention? If you take your attention off the outer world and sit quietly with yourself, take a quiet walk, or just close your eyes and ask for guidance, some little insight will come to you. That little insight will be the first inkling of what is in need of inner work. Everyone is in need of something.
