Hold yourself accountable, and without blame move into a new pattern where the only goal is spiritual. Without regret or sorrow, and knowing that you have done all you could do, move on. To hold oneself accountable means to be accountable to the self on the journey of the Self to wholeness. All circumstances in life require taking responsibility, for there is nothing you do or that has been done to you that is not part of the unfolding of the life of your spirit. A spirit is never damaged; it only ever looks forward. Even when it has to wait a long time for you to catch up, it is never sad. It just waits.

Sending you love,

Narrow life down to its simplest needs, desires and wants. On every level of consciousness, mental, physical, emotional and spiritual, decide what you need to be fulfilled. Pull those desires inward and make them the roadmap to your wholeness. Wholeness comes not from receiving without but from finding within. Feelings of wholeness come from deep within, a satisfaction in being well-acclimated, attuned, aware of the self on all levels, contented with what is. Wholeness comes when there is nothing more you need or want except the perpetuation of feeling whole. In finding wholeness within the Self you will find what you have been searching for all this time.

Nature shows how change happens, sometimes slowly, in the gradual unfolding of a new leaf, a new flower, a new life, and sometimes abruptly, in a sudden avalanche or a mighty oak’s fall. Learn from nature’s way how change can enter a life and change it slowly or abruptly. Expect change. Expect change that is good. Expect the letting go of something that no longer works or has meaning and the birth of something new that is far more appropriate. With gratitude expect good, nurturing change.

Tap into a new attitude, a new way to walk through life, a new set of eyes. Take advantage of each new day to be new yourself. In some way make a change, big or little. Break a habit, change a behavior, strike out in a new direction. Start something that you have longed to do. Try a different approach to something. Allow the creative in you to awaken each day with you and bring play into your life, play that is nurturing and sustaining, that is enlightening and lightening. Take the opportunity that a new day brings to make a breakthrough to something new.

Sending you love,

Breathe deeply more often, opening to the breath of life. Your ability to breathe is your secret weapon. In all its forms, whether for meditation or healing, the breath is magical. Take time to learn about it, how it can strengthen you, cure you, enhance you; how it can give you new life. Learn to breathe in new ways, to let nature in, to let life in, to invigorate and reinvigorate. The act of breathing is an act of change and change is good, especially when consciously embraced. Let change enhance you—breathe!
