Take full responsibility for the self, for what you think, say and do, for how you choose to act in the world and how you take care of yourself. No one else can take care of you, guide you or show you the correct path if you have not done work on yourself and are prepared to take over your life. Childhood is a time of structure and guidance to teach you how to take over in adulthood. Some children are neglected or abused and not well supported while others are showered with gifts. Your beginning matters only in what you do with it. Either it catapults you or stagnates you, but even that is up to you. Do you see the glory in every deed done for and against you, and the grand opportunity being offered to take over your own growth and progress? Ah, life! Isn’t it grand?

Sending you love,
The Soul Sisters, Jan & Jeanne

Be dependable. Be someone to trust, share and be safe with. If people know they can depend on you they also know that you can be trusted with even their deepest secrets and experiences. But to become dependable you have to first learn to trust yourself, to become for yourself a trustworthy being. Do you show up for yourself when most needed? Do you hold yourself responsible for your choices and actions? Do you trust yourself to hold sacred your most important issues and to work with them until they are resolved in a fruitful manner? To be dependable is to be selfless in a loving way without losing yourself in the problems of others. In this manner you learn that you can also count on yourself to maintain your energy for what is really needed.

Sending you love,

Keep your two feet on the ground, stationed on planet Earth, even as your spirit soars and your heart yearns for other worlds, other experiences and other knowledge. Like a rooted tree stand firmly attached even though your branches reach outward to embrace all that is. To be human is a privilege, with the opportunity to live among so much beauty and pain, so much love and despair, so much delight and intensity, the opposites that make life a divine privilege. Make the most of your experiences and make your time there of the utmost importance, for you and your life, in the great turmoil of it all, matter immensely.

Sending you love,
The Soul Sisters, Jan & Jeanne

Suspend judgment. Avoid the pitfalls of judging the self as well as others, for judgments are merely excuses for getting to the truth about the self. They are projections thrust outwardly that are better dealt with inside the self in a nonjudgmental way. Without judgment work within the self to more deeply know and explore the self so that you may continually evolve. With love, kindness and compassion be okay with who you are, striving always for clarity and deeper knowledge.

Sending love,

Settle into the idea that you are spirit first and foremost and that your physical body is a temporary vehicle that you will one day discard as you venture on into new life without it. Treasure that body while you reside in it, taking care of it as you would your own child, for it is as precious as that. Just as Mother Nature takes care of all her creatures, providing them with what they need to survive, attend to yourself equally well, for you are responsible for your own body. One day you will realize your separateness, but for now strive for unity, kindness and love, for that is what will aid you the most.

Sending you love,
