When you fully take responsibility for yourself you realize that no one deserves anything, that in fact to deserve is a serious misnomer. Deserving implies that you are owed and no one is owed anything. With life as an evolutionary process there is only the accumulation of knowledge and wisdom, of lessons and actions that lead to learning how to be responsible, to take on responsibilities, to truly and fully take on the life you are in. Rather than feel you deserve anything, look instead with awe at the challenges in your life, and with great wonder accept them as your next chance to gain knowledge and wisdom, to grow and expand, and to fully live, perhaps in a completely new way.

Sending you love,

Undercurrents of balance and harmony ride beneath the waves of disharmony. Notice how angry an ocean can appear, how choppy the waves, how fierce the surf as it slams upon the shoreline. And yet, at another depth all is calm and life goes on; the fish swim as if no such storm rails above. Sink into the depths of inner harmony and balance to regain equilibrium during times of stress. Swim among the calm waters of your inner self, knowing full well that you have what you need within you to weather through any storm. And remember, the weather always changes.

Sending you love,

Maybe you don’t really want to change yourself and maybe you don’t really want things around you to change either. Maybe you just want things to remain the same, indefinitely. That’s okay. But the truth is that change is happening all the time, in big ways and in small ways that are imperceptible. The truth is that change is continuous. One day you are bound to notice and wonder, Where have I been? How have I not noticed? A slight shift in thinking, by establishing an openness to change and a delight in being part of its great unfolding, will leave you in awe rather than scratching your head. Embracing the awe of it all reduces fear and worry and invites in a different kind of wonder at the beauty of it all. Embrace that!

Sending you love,

Stagnation is a normal part of any journey. It’s not unusual to get bogged down at some point, to experience inertia, to flounder and not know where to go next. In such times it is best to accept the time of stagnation as a necessary part of the journey, and to sit with it and wait for clarity to return. Without clarity there is no use in proceeding. Just wait. In the stillness of waiting clarity will eventually emerge. Once clarity returns the journey’s direction will also be clear.

With passion, strong intentions and the right words spoken to yourself you can change anything about yourself. With firm tone and conviction there is nothing within you that will not react in some way to a command to change. Perhaps a part of you will react in the opposite, unintended direction, but that is a strong sign that you’ve been heard. Often change is wished for but not passionately. Put a little passion into your desire for change and see what happens.
