It’s not that hard to be a loving being, to open your heart to giving and receiving, to being generous, compassionate and kind. It’s not that hard to practice loving others in a myriad of ways. Even when you are only giving and not receiving you are practicing the highest form of love, for what is true love if not a giving of yourself to another, to a cause, to a need in some way. Learn to love by being a giver. It is the highest form of selflessness and it is the most fulfilling action you can take.

Sending you love,

Rather than stoke fear, stoke your own power. Rather than stoke hatred, stoke love. Rather than stoke anger, stoke compassion. Rather than stoke disinterest, stoke kindness. If you want the world to change, first change yourself and how you react. If you change yourself and how you operate in the world, your small steps will take effect as you exercise your personal changes. Every little bit helps. Changing yourself will help you immeasurably and it will help the world incrementally as well. A little bit of positive attitude and energy go a long way.

Sending you love,

You are an individual but also part of a whole, separate and yet one with something greater that moves and changes as a collective energy. Some wish to ignore this fact, but it is an inevitable truth of life that you have a responsibility to the self as well as to the whole. Assert your responsibility conscientiously in everything you do, for all that you are affects the whole. Think, act and live with this in mind so that not only you prosper and grow but so that the whole does as well. This too is part of your Earth School training, to understand that everything you do effects everything around you.

Sending you love,

Your greatest challenge today is you. Nothing in the world compares to the challenges you present to yourself. How do you feel about you today? Are you in balance, aligned with your spirit, keeping your body healthy and your mind alert? When you grow despondent, depressed, down on yourself, look no further. All that you need to face, and all the solutions to life’s problems begin and end within. You are your own cure.

Sending you love,

Cultivate steadiness in all that you do, a calmness that is heart centered and indestructible, a focus that is unwavering. Learn to breathe yourself into a more solid, firm and yet flowing state so that you cannot be moved from your place of calm peacefulness no matter what comes to interrupt your daily life. Such steadiness in mind, body, and spirit will carry you well into a long life of adventure and change. It will help you to live a life of awareness, cultivating growth within yourself, while allowing for a true demeanor of kindness and compassion for all whom you encounter and all that surrounds you. Breathe.

Sending you love,
