Remain centered within the self, finding your stillness. In your stillness accept your own reality, your own truths, your own part in the greater whole, for you are one and all. Accept where you stand now, in this moment, and make your next step in the next moment matter more than the last. Move on even as you remain centered within the self. That is how to make progress. That is how to create a difference in your life. That is how to know the self, the greatest feat of all!

It is through suffering that redemption comes. Out of the flames of discontent emerges realization. For how can you know happiness if you have not also known its opposite? It is times of suffering that lead directly to times of transformation. Out of this time too will come new life. You can always count on that!

Fear of the unknown compromises human endeavor, keeps one bound to old ideas, old thoughts, old habits, old alignments, and old judgments. Rather than build walls, open doors. Rather than protect, be accepting. Rather than fight, lay down your arms and join hands. Is not every life as precious as another, as worthy and full of potential as your own? A life of peace is in your hands. Give it a chance.

Turn inward and firm up your intent to change the self. That is the only recourse you have when you have lost your voice in the world. That is where your power and your magic lie, within the self. That is where your voice of heart will speak its words of wisdom. That is where your solace and your future lie. That is where your answers lie, in the oracle of your own body and soul.

-From the Soul Sisters, Jan & Jeanne

Regret is no one’s friend, reluctance an unhelpful bystander, revenge an enemy of the heart. Time passes, things change, you change. What you once wanted so desperately may not be so powerful anymore, so meaningful or necessary. You settle into life wondering what it’s all about in a deeper way, wanting different things, different answers. Everything changes over time and so do you. Step back and really look at yourself. Don’t be surprised at what you see. Don’t fight change. Accept it and glory in the opportunities that life offers every step of your unfolding journey, thankful to live in the most interesting of times, thankful that change has taken place, for you are the picture of life itself, a changed and changing being, the truth that all things do change. Life, it’s all about change! Dare to love it and live it to the fullest, without the 3 R’s of regret, reluctance, and revenge!
