Life can sometimes seem like the ocean on a rough day, full of swells and treacherous decisions and then the next day it’s calm and flat as a still lake. Steadiness is being able to withstand the changes. Steadiness comes with practice, with setting intentions that are doable and promote a forward pattern of growth. Steadiness comes with maturity too, in learning the ways of the world, but also the ways of the self, setting a plan and sticking too it, reminding the self often of dreams to come. A simple dream of steadiness is a wonderful dream in itself.

Notice how your good intentions need constant reminders to remain viable and in your consciousness, how easily they slip away when you take your attention off them. Like water they flow away. Like the wind they are gone. Turn them into substantial reminders so that they do not flow away like water under a bridge or blow away like the wind, so that they remain in the mind as mantras to change. Change is good, but don’t forget that even change must be constantly engaged if it is to have the desired effects. Keep your intentions alive and well and all will be well with you as well!

Sending you love,

Stability comes from within and is manifested without when that strongly centered stability is allowed to form a life structure that is conducive to growth and evolution. Imagine the world without the structure of nature. In that case, Earth would be a planet devoid of life. Life is what brings structure. The art of living presents possibilities, choices and decisions that in turn produce the structures of a life. That which contains also allows for transformation. Look to constructing containers within your own life that will provide the perfect mix of tension and flexibility to allow you to continually transform. It’s what life is really all about, after all.

Nothing lasts forever; everything changes. It is the one known, the one thing to count on. Change is the natural bringer of new opportunities, of new ideas and new inventions. It is also the bringer of new moods, emotions and intuitions. Look forward to change in your life. It may be the only way to resolve issues, to uplift your spirit, and to receive what you need. Invite change into every day, and see what happens!

Sending you love,

Find solace in knowing that your life’s journey is unfolding as you once long ago planned it. From beginning to end, it has pretty much played out as once determined, with opportunities and choices to be made along the way, but even those had been anticipated. Find solace in knowing that all is as it should be, just as you take solace in knowing the unfolding of the seasons each year, how predictable yet full of small differences each season is, and the inevitable conclusion of each one as changes come. So is life, full of changes, and yet a part of you, your spirit, knows that none of them are unpredictable but only valuable lessons on the path of life.
