At the end of the day take some time to reflect. Look back on your decisions, choices, the thoughts that ruled and the thoughts that you dismissed. Question your actions. Look for meanings missed, meanings ignored, and meanings grabbed onto. What have you learned today? What have you accrued? What have you contained? What have you embarked on? How have you changed? How have you stayed the same? What is necessary and what is unnecessary in your life at this moment? In reflecting prepare also for what comes next. This is how to live a life of awareness. Challenge yourself to make choices that are beneficial, sacred to the self and on your own behalf, providing you with the incentives to grow and change. Without compromise, anger or resentment, choose wisely and move on with compassion and love for self and other. Do the same thing tomorrow, as you take each day as an equally significant and meaningful part of your continuing journey through this life.

Pull your energy inward today. Quiet your scattered thoughts. Still your mind and heart and let life unfold. Allow others to envision their own paths while you envision yours. Journeys in life are challenging, have no doubt about it. All must accept and travel upon their own path, making their way to their own wholeness. Offer advice when asked. Give attention where attention is needed. Nurture when appropriate, but for the most part step back and be amazed as you witness the unfolding of life all around you, letting those you love take their own journeys to wholeness.

With attention pulled inward, attend to the self in the same way and let your own journey take you forward through your own challenges and changes as you seek your own wholeness. If you take your journey with self-awareness, self-care, and self-propelled determination to experience life to the fullest, so will those you love and care about the most do the same. As within, so without.

What is your main issue to focus on today? Discover it. Train your mind to be calm and empty so that your spirit may speak to you of what it needs. With quiet mind your truths will be revealed. When you ask spirit for answers, with sincerity and intent to heal and change, spirit will speak to you clearly and honestly. It then becomes your prerogative: do I listen and take the words of my spirit to heart and work with them, or do I continue down the path I am on, ignoring them for the time being? No matter which choice you make you will be confronted by the words of your spirit over and over again. But one choice will bring you conflict and the other will bring you conflict leading to peace of mind. Both choices present work, the work of aligning with and elevating to the level of the higher, deeper self. One is the work of avoidance at all costs, the other is the work of healing and growth. Just when you elect to do the work of elevating the self to a higher level of mental, physical, emotional and spiritual health and balance is your own choice. Ponder the choices you have today. What is your main issue? What are you personally being confronted with this day?

Notice your feet today. Feel them on the earth, grounding you, your connection to the vibrations of life on that plane. Notice the beating of your heart, your connection to the vibrations of spirit. These energetic connections are brought together in your physical body. Notice them, connect with them, attend to them, value them, but also use them to guide you. Go where it feels right, where your vibrations resonate. Do what feels right. Speak what is right, eat what is right, taking into consideration the cultivation of earth and spirit from all angles, seeking resonance within and without. This is the next step and the next phase of your journey.

Remain connected to body and spirit, to earth and heaven, creating good vibrations from within the self that resonate good vibrations without, into the world around you. This is how you contribute to a changing world energy—with your own good vibrations!

Make this day be every day, in the tenderness in your heart, in your compassion for others, in your ability to give and receive, symbolic of what it means to be a human being on a spiritual journey. Absent of religion this day represents a spark of hope, so make an effort to extend your good wishes beyond just this day. As you seek balance remember that what this day represents must become part of the balance so that all days are special and yet so that no one day is more special than another, yet all are meaningful and important. Remain steady on your path of heart all days of your life and good tidings will flow upon you and into your heart.
