Take time for the dreamer in you. Find your power in stillness. In your sacred space is the peace you seek.
Today I will create a place of stillness. I will take time for my dreams and give thanks for my life. I will look within and find the peace I seek for it is always with me. I will make myself and my world a sacred space with a magic cloak of gratitude and I will be happy.
Something wonderful is happening. Change is in the air. Open yourself to blessings on their way.
Today I know that something wonderful is going to happen. I will keep my eyes and ears open for the guideposts to these unknown blessings. I give thanks for change and the faith that life is about to get even better than I ever thought possible.
Be open for whatever comes next. It might just be the music your hearts been waiting to hear.
Today I know that I must let go of the past to make room for the new. I will appreciate what I already have and create space for even more. In expectation of what is coming I give thanks. I will sing songs of gratitude while the wings of optimism lift me up and take me on the ride of a lifetime.

My name is Pride. I am a cheater.
I cheat you of your God-given destiny…
because you demand your own way.
I cheat you of contentment…
because you “deserve better than this.”
I cheat you of knowledge…
because you already know it all.
I cheat you of healing…
because you are too full of you to forgive.
I cheat you of holiness…
because you refuse to admit when you are wrong.
I cheat you of vision…
because you’d rather look in the mirror than out a window.
I cheat you of genuine friendship…
because nobody’s going to know the real you.
I cheat you of love…
because real romance demands sacrifice.
I cheat you of greatness in heaven…
because you refuse to wash another’s feet on earth.
I cheat you of God’s glory…
because I convinced you to seek your own.
My name is Pride. I am a cheater.
You like me because you think I’m always looking out for you.
Untrue.
I’m looking to make a fool of you.
God has so much for you, I admit, but don’t worry…
If you stick with me you’ll never know.
~ poem by Beth Moore
Today is a day to focus on wisdom. Wisdom is not based on how smart I am, or how smart others think I am. Knowledge comes from the outside. Wisdom comes from within. I can be open to my experiences throughout the day and process them, evaluate them, add them to what I know. Synthesizing all of my experience adds to my wisdom. Today I will be open to this inner knowledge, and try to recognize it in others as well.

No matter what happens you can find new wings. Rise from the past. Accept the positive change that is coming.
Today I will give thanks for my trials and recognize them for the many gifts they bring. I know I grow stronger in the broken places. I know that the world will turn in my favor; that the dark night is over and a new day is here because the light has returned. I have ended things well and am ready for this new beginning. I will shine, because the whole universe is mine.
Be open for whatever comes next. It might just be the music your heart’s been waiting to hear.
Today I know that I must let go of the past to make room for the new. I will appreciate what I already have and create space for even more. In expectation for what is coming I give thanks. I will sing songs of gratitude while the wings of optimism lift me up and take me on the ride of a lifetime.
Be bold, and mighty forces will aid you. Take action. Good luck favors the brave.
Today I will start a new journey. I will not wait until everything is just right. I know there will always be challenges, obstacles, and imperfect conditions. So what! I will get started now. With each step I will grow stronger, more skilled, and more confident. I will take a risk and I will succeed.
You are encouraged to find a more peaceful and connected way to live. A regular spiritual practice will transform you for the better. Connect more deeply with your own rituals of peace.
Romantic love comes into focus. Build your love of self from the inside out. You only fear because you lack self-love and acceptance. Jealousy is unnecessary.
A new path opens to you, and you are protected. A rite of passage is close. You are about to pass through a new gateway that will change you. Do not be afraid to open up.
Your time of healing is here. Past hurts will recede. Be inspired to create – this in itself is healing. It is your birthright to create.
It is never too late to change. Regret is useless. Forgiveness may be necessary. Bravery is valuable.

Today is a day to focus on removing obstacles. Some days it feels like doors shut, roadblocks go up, stairs become steeper. Obstacles can teach me things, I know. But sometimes enough is enough and it is time to clear them out. Today I remove any obstacles of thought or action that are keeping me from reaching my goals. These obstacles will diminish and my way will be made clear.

A question many of us are asking ourselves these days.
I Am a resilient survivor.
A tackler of inner triggers.
One who must consciously focus on positive affirmation to counter the habitual negative patterns.
A molder of personal character.
One who is in process of releasing judgement and the need to be right.
A person who has vowed to never simply ‘settle’ for the mediocre, the stagnant waters of life. Making effort to stir it up, open it up, and create that which is beneficial and able to incorporate something greater.
One who recognizes that life is a balance.
Working on the scales of positive and negative, aware that when a negative crops up it must immediately be countered with a positive.
A woman who is taking pleasure in cleaning up her surroundings.
A woman in process of admiring that which she has become … thus far …
She recognizes that pessimism and thoughts about the way things ought to be need thrown out the window.
She longs to love and care for life in all its many forms and ways of being, yet like religion, knows that variance of opinion or belief does not need to be imposed upon another.
Freedom to be, to choose … an inherent right, as long as it does no harm to the children, physically or mentally.
Harm … who is to judge what that is? For it varies on the scale of 1 to 10, as does all else in this world … the Scale of Polarity.
I Am She who sees the light of a child in the eyes of a canine, a squirrel, and many other forms of life.
She who sees love shared among even the smallest of creatures, and the celebration of joy in the simplest of experiences.
One who acknowledges past conditioning created many barriers which need dismantled, patterns of beingness reformatted.
She who is determined to take charge and choose a different future from those of previous cycles. Choosing to be an active Creator of environment and life.
A Gentle Soul capable of a Mighty Roar.
One who accepts the guidance and sometimes path altering pushes from Guardian, Guides, Ancestors and Angels.
She admits that her thoughts and ideas should not, and cannot, form the collective scale of what is appropriate. So she practices release of opinion and the sometimes hidden judgement.
One who is grateful to be free from rule-making and managing the various outputs of another.
The world is filled to the brim with people pushing, pulling and attempting to format the minds and hearts of those living around them, and otherwise, ignoring the internal workings of their own mind and heart.
Any time a criticism arises of someone or something, it must be flipped straightaway to the personal … Am I this or that? Do I do this or that? Only then can we begin the see the reality of outward appearances and circumstances as our mirror, which is most often found to be our own reflection.
That beautiful mirror that allows us to see the Raw Truth, should we be willing.
Just ordered this book.
Looking forward to gaining further knowledge.
Yes … and no.
It all starts with manipulation.
We are placed in a family unit which holds certain beliefs and life styles. Some say we choose this family … I think not.
We are taught certain behaviors, certain habitual patterns, we become acclimated to a particular area of the world.
We spend our life in these patterns until we decide we wish to reformat our life, into something WE choose, not that which our parents and peers instilled in us.
Even then, the choices we make are under constant manipulations, constant trials we face as we retrain our minds and restructure our habitual patterns.
We may fall into the past pattern occasionally, or even frequently. Yet we must continue to rise above it, to change the pattern, to eliminate reminders of these patterns from our lives in order to give ourselves a fighting chance at restructure, at choosing consciously our future.
Since we know our younger years were manipulated by the hidden hand, who also affected our role models lives, we can say that ‘choice’ is simply what we do from the limited experiences we have been given to pick from.
Anything else …
We’ve got to create ourselves.
How do we know it is proper choice vs manipulated choice?
Proper choice will benefit our life, and assist us in spiraling upward and forward into greater experiences, where goodness multiplies rather than its opposite.
Manipulated choice is that born of programming from youth and varying circumstances we were exposed to, involving a limited number of choices available, keeping a perpetual cycle of some form of chaos alive.
Usually, it is the manipulator who will remind you “it was your choice” …. all while they urge the fall from grace, so to speak.
The hidden hands … they cannot ascend. They have chosen dominion over this earth and have paid the price for it … their very soul. This is where they will be for eternity, or until they can no longer keep their life viable. Misery loves company, and they will do whatever necessary to keep humans trapped in these particular lower fields.
By rule, they can tempt you, but they also must tell you how to help yourself. “Stay away from thc …. go ahead and smoke it …”
The tempter will always tempt, and then say it was your choice when you fall. They simply cannot leave well enough alone. It’s a game you see … sheeple are a commodity for the woke and ancient ones pulling strings.
So … it is clear that in order to change habitual patterns, the entirety of the environment must change. Making this shift is a challenge in itself when others are involved … when one must wait for them to take action on their own part. And when they don’t …
Jekyll & Hyde Bitch
I don’t like to wear the hat, honestly. But this is the future I’m talking about. How does one remain in LOVE when they are fighting to cleanse their environment, giving their Soul the best chance possible for stability? Well, love of self must outweigh anything else …
The tempter … they are hidden and also in plain sight, often they are latched on for dear life … because it is you (and me) they feed upon, energetically and physically. To them our presence literally means that which sustains life … theirs.
