What are you thinking? What are you telling yourself? What words are you using to describe yourself? Can you find some other thoughts to focus on, something more profound? Can you use different words, say something more positive, appealing, and provocative perhaps? Can you tell yourself a new story, give it a magical spin? Words and thoughts have power, but so do you. Use different words and thoughts today. Change them and change your attitude, your outlook, and your prognosis. Listen to yourself. If you don’t like what you hear, say something else. If you don’t like what you’re thinking, think something else. Change can be that simple!

Each day nature is different, some days bringing just subtle changes while on others bringing abrupt and drastic change. Nature lives without regret, acquiescing to change, going with the flow of it. Nature surrenders completely and yet it continues, fully present, fully viable, fully alive, constantly transforming. So is your own life process one of constant change and transformation. There are times to protest change and times when there is nothing to do but surrender. Learning appropriate action is key. Is today a day of protest or a day of surrender? You decide, but know that in the end your own nature is intent upon change, always seeking to take you in a new direction. Pay attention and let your own life show you the way. Begin each day with no regrets. What’s done is done. What are you going to do now?

You belong there, have no doubt. Place your feet upon the earth and know that it is your place to be, your home, that it is your destiny to live out your days upon the Earth Mother’s fertile body. Know also that though you fully reside there that there are plenty of other unseen variables that effect you. Your job is to be fully present as you find out who you really are and what you are truly capable of, using all that is in your life, the seen and the unseen, to guide you. Begin with feet firmly planted on the ground, thankful for the air you breathe, the sun that nurtures, the water that gives life, and the dark of night that offers rest and respite. Is not that enough for this day’s journey? Let the life of the Earth Mother show you that it is.

Take time for stillness, for sitting as quiet as a tree, feeling your roots extending into the earth, your branches spreading high and wide. Feel yourself bound to the Earth Mother, a child of her body, a part of her energy. Know that you are loved by her and allow yourself to be loving back, for that is all that matters in the world of today—love.
