Things are certainly ramping up, but this is expected, for you have seen and felt the energetic press of change for a long time now and you have been feeling its certain effects. More of the same is to come. The times of change are not over, and how could they be? Without change there would be stagnation. Stagnation is unhealthy. Keep attuned to what is right, and always turn to your heart when your head is spinning. It will find a way to give you the right answer.
Let not your temper get the better of you today. Hold onto the feelings in your heart that you encouraged yesterday, the feelings of thankfulness and gratitude that make every day better. Hold onto your heart’s intent to be more thankful and grateful for all that life brings to teach you, to show you where to go next and to guide you to peace and contentment. Whatever is making you angry today, ask yourself why, and face that it has come to guide you to something important, something that needs to be pointed out to you. The little angers in life lead the way to the bigger insights that will allow you to grow and change, and that is good!
Take a deep breath and remind yourself of your beauty, your health, your happiness, your prosperity, and your harmoniousness. You are a part of all that is, of all that is beautiful and all that is happy. You are a part of the great force of life on Earth and that same great force is within you. Keep it alive with thoughts of positive measure and inner certainty that you are more than worthy of taking your place in the world, just as much as the next person. All that exists is there for you too.
Reach for the stars they say! Reach for your highest potential! Everything is possible! Well, the truth is that all of those saying are absolutely true, the only caveat is that you have to put your own energy behind them, your own faith and trust in yourself in order for them to work for you. No one else can give you the energy you need to propel your forward. You have to instigate it within yourself. Yes, someone can certainly inspire you to change, to move in a new direction, to go for it, but only you can bring forth the energy that will sustain you and the belief in yourself that is so necessary to move forward in life. Part of the process involves acknowledging and resolving what keeps you from achieving what you desire. Look at the flower that blooms, that struggles from deep inside the earth, a tiny seed. Notice how it does not stop. It does not have thoughts of lack or depletion, it simply strives for what it knows belongs to it; the sunshine that will nurture it, the rain what will feed it, the earth that will support it. It does not ever doubt or think negatively; it just grows. So too are you a creature of the same world and so too will you be fed, nurtured and supported, if you believe it.
Under the best of circumstances life would unfold without worry, you might say, but that is not the best of circumstances at all. That would be a life of no consequence, no challenge and thus no growth. Challenges offer growth spurts. When difficulties arise, it is far better to face them than to avoid them, for they are like doors opening to something new, stairways to something better, pathways to new life. Challenges and difficulties in life are the opportunities to grow, to change, and to embrace something new and exciting. All change comes out of such opportunities, at first seen as annoying interruptions but soon seen as just the right thing at the right time.
