Allow the evolving self to shine through a little bit more each day. Allow the truth of who you truly are to be present in your life. Be daring as you present this new self to the world, as you allow this emerging self to enter into life and live beside you now. Soon there will be no difference between the two of you, for your merger will be complete. Until then remain aware of the work of these two selves, the old self and the new self. Be aware of whose voice speaks, of whose thoughts are evoked, of whose fears and daring are imposed. Note how you begin to operate as you allow your new self to enter and be heard, how you really can allow the old self to step away, no longer necessary.

The work of becoming a changing being is constant. The work of living from your truth must be accomplished with conscious attention to detail, to what is happening inside in reaction to what is happening outside. This is the playing field of evolutionary work. This is how to change with awareness.

To make a decision that is in alignment with nature—nature within and without—is to leave the decision up to the high self, the spirit within, who knows all. Such a decision will unfold as it will and as it should, according to a myriad of factors and probabilities. The main decision on your part is to set your intent and place your trust in your own spirit’s guidance. That trust must be placed above all else and this may be the most difficult thing you have ever done. But if you dare, you will get to see how your spirit leads you on your journey and how your goal is achieved or not. For just because you decide upon something and set your intent does not mean that you will achieve it. Your spirit may have other plans! But in the end, you will be where you need to be according to the laws of nature and your own spirit. So, set your intent, ask your spirit to guide you, and wait to see what comes along to show you the way. Stay alert and act with consciousness, always asking your spirit if you are getting it right. Your spirit will not fail you, but watch out for that ego; it is the only thing you have to worry about!

Behave as if you have no time. Live each day as if you have no future. Accept who you are in this day and yet also be who you wish to be in this day as well. Open your heart the way you wish it to be open, to both give and receive. Fulfillment is the quest and your heart is the path. Fulfillment of what, you might ask? Fulfillment of all that is, all that you are, and all that the world is. You see, you are part of a larger whole, and how you decide to live each day of your life impacts the whole, the world and everyone and everything in it.

You have the power to make the world a beautiful place once again or a sad and miserable place by how you decide to use your power. Your power used today, the only day that matters, from your powerful heart has the potential to bring you and the world one step closer to fulfillment. Use your power wisely.

Today carries forward the energy of change, hope, and confrontation with all that is and all that wishes to be. Are you ready to be receptive? Are you ready to lighten up to the deeper exploration of all that life offers? Today may be your day to finally change.

How you approach it is up to you. A little graciousness goes a long way. A little kindness and a little consideration of all that is will balance any desire. So take it easy as you reach out or as you ask another to take a journey with you. All are vulnerable and fallible. All are also full of love and fear too. No one gets away with selfishness or self-pity in the end. All will be revealed, for change does not let dishonesty or shame rule, as only the truth will come out and only love will last.

Before making a decision consider the whole. Consider the outcome of your decisions within the wholeness of your life, your goals, and your dreams. To plot your life according to ideas that may be impractical though daring and even adventurous may not be the best approach. A warrior is always aware of taking full responsibility for the self and so a warrior makes decisions that will not only provide what is necessary but be progressive as well. For a warrior does seek adventure and is open to new experiences, but a warrior also knows what is expected and so a warrior is prepared not only to be fully responsible but also ready to turn and walk in a new direction at a moment’s notice. So a warrior is always prepared for the worst even while also expecting the best. This is how a warrior takes full responsibility for the self and is ready for any adventure and any outcome.
