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!

A failure to communicate results in chaos. A failure to consider all sides results in anger. A failure to take into account the feelings and needs of others results in bitterness. To be fair is often difficult but to be honest is not, to be kind is not, to be compassionate is not. When the mind does not bring the right answers turn to the heart for counsel. The heart will respond appropriately if given a chance, for the heart never lies.

Bring back the light. Intend kindness. Intend goodness. Intend peacefulness. Intend positive thoughts, energy, and attitudes. Reject hatred. Reject malice. Reject bigotry. Reject negative thoughts, energy, and attitudes. Your own good thoughts, your positive energy, and your fair and balanced approaches to life can change the world. There is no better time than now to prove that love conquers all.

Elevate your thinking. Elevate your feelings. Elevate your attitude, keeping a positive outlook alive within, even though what is happening outside of you sends your thinking, your feelings, and your attitude plunging down into the depths of fear and despair. If you keep your inner flame alive you will survive anything and come out on top in the end. It’s all about holding the truth and what’s right sacred within, nurturing and tending it, keeping it always in your thoughts, a permanent fixture of hope, love, and the rightness of all things.

-From the Soul Sisters, Jan & Jeanne

Don’t be afraid. Everything will be alright. The sun will rise. The sun will set. Life goes on. The day begins, the day unfolds, all things come to pass that are meant to be. Be mindful always of the self. Do not live with abandon but with mindfulness. Do not live carelessly but cautiously, aware of how you impact the earth and those around you. Do not live greedily but tend to all things with a measure of grace, taking only what you need and in proper balance, giving appropriately, for you are the future and your choices matter, always.
