Petty tyrants come and go, those who make life difficult or miserable. How you react to such people is always up to you. No matter the situation your choice of attitude can make all the difference. It’s your spirit that matters, your greater intent in life, and your outlook on life in general that can get you through any dark time. Staying centered within the self at all times, positive of outlook, anchored in the knowledge that you matter and that your progress is assured will get you where you need to be. Take advantage of any time in life as a time of learning and growth, even the dark times. With the right attitude that is always possible.

Sending you love,

Find solace in knowing that you are in charge of yourself, of your life and of your destiny. You may wish to blame others for how things turn out but in another frame of mind you know that no one else has anything to do with you and your choices, that ultimately everything is up to you. To understand this is your saving grace. Begin to change your frame of mind little by little, day by day, by changing your thoughts, by how you think about yourself and the journey you are on. By gradually taking control of your own thoughts you will also take control of your life. No one else can think for you, just as no one else can choose for you what your next step will be. Pause often and question your decision: Is this really what I want? Ask your heart to give you its input and ask your spirit to pipe up with its desires more often too. Soon you will see progress and understand more fully the true reality that you alone have made the life you are in, and thus also that you alone can make your own new future.

Sending you love,

Have no regrets. What’s done is done and cannot be undone. But with awareness something different can be enacted now and in the future. From this day forth a new path may be forged, a new intention set. A new direction that is positive and life-affirming may be established. It’s never too late to set off in a new direction. It’s your choice and choice is free.

Sending you love,

Change occurs constantly, though there are times when change is necessary, when there is nothing left to do but create anew. Sometimes it’s just the only thing to do. At other times change is so incremental that it’s hardly noticeable. You know the difference and when action is necessary. If action is not taken when needed, it will be forced upon you. So, are you going to change willingly and with determination? Or are you going to get dragged into it? The choice is yours.

Sending you love,

If you decide to live life on your own terms then be prepared to deal with the consequences. Not every way is a way that will bring fulfillment. Not every way is a way that  is full of heart. Not every way is a way that offers the best opportunities. Not every way takes into consideration the greater good. However you decide to live your life this time around will also determine how you live your life the next time around. Spend some time in deep contemplation. Ask yourself some hard questions and decide what is right for you to do now and what your next step should be. To walk a path with heart, or not?

Sending you love,
