Every day offers opportunities for change, growth, and awakening. It is the little things you do, the small steps you take that add up to the giant leaps. It is the daily doing of life with intent to be aware of the self as a being of energy, learning to flow smoothly with life’s ups and downs, that will transport you and transform you.

You are all capable of the highest achievements, of the impossible because you are all beings of the highest order and that is the order of love. Seek love in all its many forms as your goal, but it is the love of compassion awakening within you that will have the greatest effect within and without. Seek that, for self and other, and all will be well.

Freedom comes only when one finally frees oneself from that which lies within, from that which imprisons one long after the prison bars are gone, long after the time of actual imprisonment is over. To imprison oneself is as defeating as being held in check by another. Freedom is a sense of being, a sense of knowing that you are worthy, acceptable, and that your life’s experiences made you strong, understanding, and desirous of more than the mundanities of life.

But such things of freedom and worth can only be delivered by the truths of the inner self being exposed to the truths of the outer self. Jailer and jailed are one and the same. Until they free each other, freedom will remain on the outskirts of life, a distant dream. Dream bigger. Dream beyond the place of stagnation, sadness, and fear. You hold the key. Use it.

Who do you generally blame? Do you tend to blame yourself when it is not your fault? Or do you choose to blame another when really you are to blame? Who you choose to blame on any given day is an indication of what is going on inside you. Rather than look for who to blame, rather than become defeated by yet another day of self-blame, turn away from blame completely and ask the self another question: How can I stop blaming and heal instead? Find the answer where all answers lie: Within!

You always have a choice. When you withdraw and isolate yourself from others and from the world, for whatever reason, you give to yourself and you take from yourself as well. Withdrawal is often an opportunity to turn inward and shift, to change a behavior by withdrawing from that which is associated with that behavior. But withdrawal can also be an act of denial, a refusal to change, to push the self out into the world and confront the fears that cause you to withdraw.

There are always two sides to every choice. You must decide the real reason you seek withdrawal, face the truth, and then deal with it head on and decide if it is truly right to withdraw inwardly now or is it better to expand outwardly. Only one answer will be appropriate. One answer will bring you the opportunity to change, the other will bring you only stagnation. The choice is yours.

Belief systems, fixed ideas, and troublesome thoughts can get in the way of life’s flow, taking energy, leaving you feeling defeated and depleted. Clear your mind. Breathe into your head and release all that mumbles, tumbles and torments, all that numbs and dumbs. Try a brain free, mind-chatter free day. Just breathe and release, breathe and release every time you notice you have jammed up again. Let the energy flow freely and then see how you feel!
