It’s not easy to change, to go through a process of real and lasting change. Mostly change occurs within and that can indeed be a slow and meticulous journey. Too much expression outwardly and the process may stagnate rather than accelerate, for release of the tension that creates the foundation for change to happen leaves one feeling empty and unfulfilled. It is in the tension itself that one finds the stimulus and the potential that fuels and gives change its meaning. Bearing the tension is thus a beneficial process. Change is happening all the time, even during those times when you feel it the least. Stay contained and let the process take its natural course. Each day something new will reveal that you are indeed on the right path.

Sending you love,

Changing times call for changing attitudes. The best medicine is often something totally outside of the norm, unusual and even the opposite of what you think might be needed. Strength, courage and a sense of humor may get you through the worst of times much better than any standard of care. A knowing heart may know what is best, an inner sense that something drastic must be done, a cure that does not require anything more than a deep soul search, an adjustment of direction, balance and yes, attitude. They often say that gratitude is the attitude that cures all, but more often than not it’s facing a truth and accepting it, with honesty. A new honest attitude toward the self may be all that is needed.

Protect yourself even as you give of yourself. Watch your energy so that you do not overextend, while at the same time keep your heart open so that your caring self has plenty of expression. The world needs help in so many ways and yet divisions create more differences than there really are. Nature, in her eternal way, shows what happens when chaos ensues and yet her chaos is not caused by divisions or inflations but by nature’s evolutionary intent, which carries only change while human intent often carries malice. Continue the work of a good and caring heart, something that nature, even with all her beauty, does not have, and see what happens in the long run.

A new day brings new challenges, new beauties to enjoy, new meaning and new purpose. Look at each new day as the new opportunity it is, with bright possibilities for change, advancement, creativity and more. Let your feet be grounded today in the here and now so that you do not miss one new experience, sensation or idea that crosses your path. Greet the day as the new life it truly is.

Sending you love,

If you leave the door open who knows what might get in. The choice becomes whether it is better to keep the door closed and deal with what is or keep the door open and deal with what might come. Both choices present their challenges. Both choices present their opportunities. But is one choice better than the other? Some say it’s better to keep the door closed, others that it’s better to keep the door open. Are there ulterior motives to keeping the door open? Are there fears that keep the door closed? One way or another, the time comes in every life when the decision has to be made, open or closed?
