Remain in awe. Turn always to wonder and the possibilities that abound in life, to the surprise synchronicities that show you that you are not alone, that you are on the right track, and that all will be well. Find the awe in everyday life, within and without, whether in the quiet of the inner self or in experiences in the world around you. Remain in awe.

Sending you love,
The Soul Sisters, Jan & Jeanne

When change comes unexpectedly the best course of action is to wholeheartedly embrace it and with a calm heart accept its place in your life. Sometimes new doors open, a new path appears, or a sudden change in direction is necessary. Sometimes survival means doing something you never imagined you could or would do.

All of these opportunities for change are also opportunities to change the self, within and without, and to do so with love, kindness and compassion will make the coming journey that much more meaningful.

Sending you love,

Continue on your personal path of heart and positive progress toward the good even though things around you may not appear positive, heartfelt or good. To remain a solid light of positivity and good in a dark and negative world will have an effect, subtle at first, but even one person can change an entire roomful of negative people by speaking the truth in a heartfelt and positive way. It’s never too late to change.

Sending you love,

Your true power lies within you, not in the world outside of you. Though you may seek to gain from what the world offers, it will do you little good if you are not able to bring it within and assimilate it within the inner self. An idea remains just an idea unless it is brought inward and allowed to blossom. A spark of the creative will remain but a spark if it is not brought inward and allowed to flourish in some creative output. Use your true inner power to cure the self of all that holds you from your true creative expression and then watch yourself blossom.

Sending you love,

The time eventually comes when there is no path visible except that of acquiescence. To acquiesce is not a failure but a logical next step as one faces a truth, either a truth from within or a truth from without, or perhaps a synchronous alignment of both something from within and something from without that will yield in no other way. Acquiescence then becomes the one and only step to take.

Acquiesce with awareness, just as nature’s seasons acquiesce to the new changes that a new season brings. Sometimes it’s just time to let go and take the next best step, whatever that may be. But with awareness you can choose the attitude you take and you can remain open to what will come next. For indeed, even in times of ending there is an opening to something new.
