It’s never too late to take a different path, to find a path of heart, a path that seeks love, compassion and kindness as its moral principles rather than greed and selfishness. A path of heart includes a nonjudgmental way of life. For once upon a path of heart it becomes clear that you are just one of the many on the same path through life, that all are as one, seeking to fulfill life in the best way possible. But a path of heart is a path of awareness and that is the difference between that and any other path. For once you have awareness then everything is meaningful in the context of past, present and future karma. Once upon a path of heart no other path will do.

Sending you love,

Keep your head on. Remain levelheaded and soberly contained no matter what comes to challenge you. To go off your rocker, so to speak, never helps anyone, especially you. Contain your anger at the world and discover its roots in yourself, for everything that triggers you on the outside is only reflecting something going on inside you. Turn inward and investigate. The world would certainly be a calmer, more peaceful place if more people did just that.

Sending you love,

Focus on what is going right in your life rather than on what is going wrong. Incline toward the positive rather than the negative. Lean toward looking ahead rather than looking at what you did not get right, do right, or say appropriately. Everyone makes mistakes. Accept your role in the unfolding of your life and look forward to playing a new role in the days to come. It will do you good to be humble.

Sending you love,

Center yourself in knowing that you have within you all that you need to live a life that is fulfilling, meaningful, and stable. You might not figure everything out at once but the capacity does lie within you. Learn from your own life, and from the lives of those around you, what you want to do and how you want to spend your time. Look to nature to guide you as well, to its unfolding seasons, to the coming and going of night and day, to the play of light and shadow. You may not get everything right at first, but give it your best effort and before long you will find your way to what is right for you.

Sending you love,

Monitor your energy. What are you doing to compromise it? Tend to it as you would a fire, feeding it and keeping it alive, bright and clear, like a flame full of warmth and light. Your energy is your life force and it needs taking care of, just as your body does. And, indeed, in much the same way as the body. So keep it in good condition with both rest and activity, spiritually, mentally, physically and emotionally. Let it both play and reflect, enjoy life to the fullest but also take time to retreat and recharge. You can’t go wrong in life if you take care of your whole self!

Sending you love,
