When times of great change arrive it is the wise person who accepts them and learns how to work with them. There are pivotal points in life when a sense of never-going-back becomes clear. Such times are marks of deep rather than subtle change, both within and without, and a determination is made that has profound and lasting effects. The world you live in is going through such times now and each individual is feeling it in some way. No one escapes the effects of worldwide change. Note how your own life is changing and make adjustments that are helpful, beneficial and internally positive, even while you face the deeper meaning of the outer world’s problems. No one is alone. Where one suffers so do others. Remain in a positive frame of mind that keeps abreast of the change and changes too.

Sending you love,

Go with the flow. Rather than fight, swimming against the current of life’s unfolding, acquiesce to the forces of nature that urge you to change, that confront you with new knowledge about yourself, and that will aid you as you go with the flow. Be open minded as you watch how things unfold and as you accept where you are now. Be open hearted too, as you look on with awe at the great unfolding of the realities of life, for you personally and for the world around you. Remain in awe.

Sending you love,

Each day offers a multitude of opportunities and choices, from the mundane to the exquisite, from the ordinary to the extraordinary. The greatest and most important opportunity is deciding to see what is being presented to you as the most pivotal factor yet in the life you have lived thus far. Why is today not possibly the most important day ever? It can be if you decide to make it so. By your attitude, by how you decide to perceive your circumstances, and by choosing to make a new choice and take a new direction, you offer yourself a different experience. Make today more important than yesterday by going out on a limb and doing something extraordinary.

Kickstart your day with a bright new intention, a new idea to jump into the day. Instead of repeating the old to yourself, say something new. Find a way to break an old habit so that you start things off in a new and fresh manner. Have a steadfast morning routine? Change it, even slightly. In this manner you will have done something out of the ordinary. And that’s a wonderful thing!

Sending you love,

Enacting change can seem to take eons, yet all of a sudden it is upon you and you aren’t sure how it happened. You almost forgot your longing for it and yet before you know it you are swept up in it. “Is this what I asked for?” you wonder. Better to focus on navigating what has arrived than going down the rabbit hole of regret. Learn to navigate the changes in your own life by staying present in each moment, by being honest with yourself and by accepting your new reality without resentment or sadness. Life changes and yet it goes on in new fashion. Make it as meaningful as ever and you will not be disappointed.

Sending you love,
