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.

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.

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.
An elderly woman got on a bus and sat down. At the next stop, a strong, grumpy young woman climbed up and sat down sharply beside the old woman, hitting her with her numerous bags.
When she saw that the elderly woman remained silent, the young woman asked her why she had not complained when she hit her with her bags.
The elderly woman replied with a smile: “There is no need to be rude or discuss something so insignificant, as my trip next to you is short because I am going to get off at the next stop.”
This answer deserves to be written in gold letters: “There is no need to discuss something so insignificant, because our journey together is too short.”
Each of us must understand that our time in this world is so short, that darkening with struggles, useless arguments, jealousy, not forgiving others, discontent and an attitude of constant discovery is a ridiculous waste of time and energy.
Did someone break your heart ? Stay calm. The trip is too short.
Did someone betray you, intimidate, cheat or humiliate you? Relax. Excuse. The trip is too short.
Did someone insult you without reason ? Stay calm. Ignore it. The trip is too short.
Did a neighbor comment on the chat that you didn’t like ? Stay calm. Ignore him. Forgive that. The trip is too short.
Whatever the problem someone has brought us, remember that our journey together is too short.
No one knows the length of that trip. Nobody knows when it will arrive at its stop. Our trip together is too short.
We will appreciate friends and family.
Let us be respectful, kind and forgive, we will be filled with gratitude and joy, after all our trip together is very short.
In difficult times, you move forward in small steps. Do what you have to do, but little by little. Don’t think about the future, or what may happen tomorrow. Wash the dishes. Remove the dust. Write a letter. Make a soup. You see? You are advancing step by step. Take a step and stop. Rest a little. Praise yourself. Take another step. Then another. You won’t notice, but your steps will grow more and more. And the time will come when you can think about the future without crying.
