Why do we do the things we do? Are we weak in body and spirit? Are we so captivated by our entrenched habits and thoughts that we cannot see true reality?

Day to day we seek balance and yet we must face what takes us off balance. Only in abrupt shift will real change occur.

Turn in a new direction now. Walk firmly and with conviction on your path of heart. You are fully human, acknowledge that, but you are also fully spirit. Time to acknowledge that too and proceed with commitment and heart on the path your spirit long ago selected.

This is the time of immediate and resourceful change. Time to be honest and face the truth and walk in a new direction, for your spirit’s sake.

In the remembering of past events and how you have handled them you know that you have all you need to continue on your journey despite worries and thoughts of defeat.

Do not allow a few obstacles to mar your shining warrior face. Let your inner glow shine ever brighter as you face a new moment in your life. Take up your warrior sword and charge onward with compassion and kindness for self and other. No obstacle is too large or difficult to overcome. Cut right through it and keep going.

Let not old thoughts seep in to take you back to old stuck places. They are merely warnings by your fearful self to alert you to the truth of your choices and desires, letting you know that you might get what you want and so be prepared for everything to change. Change is good. New life is refreshing, invigorating, and full of opportunity and growth. Without the advantage of change there is but stagnancy and in stagnancy there is little that is appealing.

Shift into a good mood of contemplation with eyes turned appropriately inward at the truth and outward in a new direction based on what you have learned about the self. This is how to go forward with prudence, ready to also embrace the happiness that lies in store. Remember: Change is good!

With clarity of purpose, fully knowing the desires of the true self, move on into the new life you have envisioned for yourself with confidence and trust in all that you have worked so hard at. Notice how you have been and are being guided, both from within and without, to fully embrace this newly forming and evolving self.

All is as it should be. All you need to do now is acquiesce to all that is in place and take the journey already laid out before you. You know what this means. Go with confidence.

The sun rises and shines upon the golden gates of a new day. What choices will we make today? The gates remind us that each day is an opportunity to move on into new worlds, taking with us only that which serves us, leaving behind that which no longer has value.

How do we make our choices be the right ones? Deep inside ourselves we know what is right to do and what is unhelpful. Deep inside the answers come from our knowing selves, full of wisdom and eternal depths of understanding regarding who we have been and who we are slated to be.

Look forward at the gate of this new day and move onward with burdens released and heart warming, open to receive all that awaits.
