When change comes unexpectedly the best course of action is to wholeheartedly embrace it and with a calm heart accept its place in your life. Sometimes new doors open, a new path appears, or a sudden change in direction is necessary. Sometimes survival means doing something you never imagined you could or would do.

All of these opportunities for change are also opportunities to change the self, within and without, and to do so with love, kindness and compassion will make the coming journey that much more meaningful.

Sending you love,

Remember, what has not yet happened has already happened. What is to come has already arrived. What will be already is. All time is now. There is no difference between one day and the next except your perspective on it. Keep a positive attitude and all will be well.

Sending you love,

Your true power lies within you, not in the world outside of you. Though you may seek to gain from what the world offers, it will do you little good if you are not able to bring it within and assimilate it within the inner self. An idea remains just an idea unless it is brought inward and allowed to blossom. A spark of the creative will remain but a spark if it is not brought inward and allowed to flourish in some creative output. Use your true inner power to cure the self of all that holds you from your true creative expression and then watch yourself blossom.

Sending you love,

Find balance within the self rather than looking outwardly. What is outside of you is merely reflecting what you think you need, while what is inside you is the barebones truth. Sometimes the truth is too hard to accept so time is spent avoiding it. But in the end, the only place to go for real and deep resolution to what ails you is inward.

The time eventually comes when there is no path visible except that of acquiescence. To acquiesce is not a failure but a logical next step as one faces a truth, either a truth from within or a truth from without, or perhaps a synchronous alignment of both something from within and something from without that will yield in no other way. Acquiescence then becomes the one and only step to take.

Acquiesce with awareness, just as nature’s seasons acquiesce to the new changes that a new season brings. Sometimes it’s just time to let go and take the next best step, whatever that may be. But with awareness you can choose the attitude you take and you can remain open to what will come next. For indeed, even in times of ending there is an opening to something new.
