It's like driving your car only looking thru the rear view mirror!

What does it take for someone to earn a place in your life?Is the criteria complicated?Are there invisible tests they must pass?Or do all that apply get accepted?Trust should be earned. Not given away for free.People should be approached with an open heart,but earning a permanent place there, should come with a few qualifications.First and foremost, is the love and trust reciprocated?It should never feel one sided.Second, are secrets kept, and confidences held close?You want to know that your most intimate thoughts and vulnerabilitieswon't be betrayed to others.Third, are they dependable? Will they be there when you need them?Will they drop everything in a crisis to be available to you?If you can answer yes to all three of these questions, then and only then, should someone become significant in your circle.You may even have a couple more criteria of your own that must be met,But let these three questions be a true litmus test of who you hold close and who you keep as an acquaintance.Not everyone EARNS a place of SIGNIFICANCE in your heart.

Just a reminder here, that all the aches and pains,and cold and flu symptoms are part of a recalibration.After big waves of energy come in, they rearrange everything,the cells of every living thing are shifted,and shuffled.This is all for the better, but often your bodies need some time to catch up.That is why you feel so tired, achy and cranky.It makes you seek solitude and rest, lots of rest.As these cells recalibrate, they actually vibrate faster, shaking off a layer of density, of unwanted, un needed layers of "muck".As this "energetic muck" is released, your body responds.If it chooses to leave quickly, it looks like vomiting and diarrhea.Chills and sweating. Like the "flu"So don't freak out, and don't yell NO at it!The more you resist and yell NO, the longer it will take to pass,And it will pass, so better to just relax into it.For many of you it presents as a sore throat, and running nose.Like a "cold".Again, it is your body catching up with this new higher energy, so now that you remember that, you will just take it easy, and let it pass.We don't want to sound like a broken record, but we can hear you complaining,So here's our gentle reminder ;-)If you want more of a reminder re read "Recalibration" from earlier this year.

Are you proud of yourself? Of the life you're leading?If you're not, what can you do to correct that?Some of you have never felt pride in yourselves or your accomplishments.You have never thought about yourself, or walked thru the world with a sense of pride.What WE mean by that is, many of you don't want to seems full of yourselves,So you self deprecate, almost to a fault.Now, this can be a tightrope topic.Look at the definitions of PROUD especially the second one, and LOOK at those synonyms!PROUDproud/adjective1.feeling deep pleasure or satisfaction as a result of one's own achievements, qualities, or possessions or those of someone with whom one is closely associated."a proud grandma of three boys"synonyms: pleased, glad, happy, delighted, joyful, overjoyed, thrilled, satisfied, gratified, content Moreantonyms: ashamed(of an event, achievement, etc.) causing someone to feel this way."we have a proud history of innovation"synonyms: pleasing, gratifying, satisfying, cheering, heartwarming; Moreantonyms: shameful2.having or showing a high or excessively high opinion of oneself or one's importance."a proud, arrogant man"having or showing a consciousness of one's own dignity."I was too proud to go home"SYNONYMS: arrogant, conceited, vain, self-important, full of oneself, puffed up, jumped-up, smug, complacent, disdainful, condescending, scornful, supercilious, snobbish, imperious, pompous, overbearing, bumptious, haughty; Moreantonyms: humble, modestimposing; splendid."bulrushes emerge tall and proud from the middle of the pond"synonyms: magnificent, splendid, resplendent, grand, noble, stately, imposing, dignified, striking, impressive, majestic, glorious, awe-inspiring, awesome, Having pride and being proud of yourself has gotten a bad name.You can appear to be the MOST humble soul on the planet.But we want you to FEEL proud of yourselves on the INSIDE.These feelings are not mutually exclusive. You can be humble and feel pride.We would like you to realize your value, and feel how valuable your life is.We trust that you will not go off the deep end with this.Even the people that seem to be all puffed up and boastful are a facade.They overcompensate for their real, hidden feelings of inferiority.So we'd like to give you an assignment.Find one thing in your life that you're doing currently that givesyou a sense of pride inside.If you don't know what that feels like, look at the first definition above for help.Feelings of pleasure,satisfaction,and gratification.Even if it's as simple as opening the door for someone,or giving a homeless man a dollar.Did you purge and give all your boxes to a charity?Did you call and wish someone a happy birthday?Maybe you let someone ahead of you in the checkout line.Seriously, start there.These do not have to be huge, we just want you to look for that feeling inside.After you find this feeling, you will become addicted to it.You will begin to search for ways to feel that satisfaction with yourself.And believe us when we say, it becomes contagious.When you walk thru the world behaving with a sense of pride,your actions will follow, others will start to "pay it forward"and this will start a chain reaction.You will single handedly change the way the world views Pride and being Proud.Well done! We're proud of you ;-)

(This is always a hard one)

"You are not your mind, your emotions or the circumstances of your life. You are the peaceful observer of your mind and emotions that allows life circumstances to pass through and around you for your evolution to finally come to a place of total acceptance of all that is. Only the peaceful observer remains after all else fades away. Only the peaceful observer in total acceptance of what is can take action towards effectively changing anything. You are only this peaceful observer - everything else is as fleeting as the blink of an eye, choose happiness and don't buy into it."- Jackson Kiddard

Many of you are finding yourselves with the urge to purge!What we mean by that is, you are thinning things out,Getting rid of the superfluous things in your life.This can be junk around the house.A cluttered office or garage, that has sat that way for years,suddenly becomes too much to tolerate any longer!You are open to throwing away things that had "sentimental value".Somehow, they no longer have that hold on you.It's happening with people too.And that's okay.You're finding yourself being fine with the fact that you haven't seen someone in ages.You're actually better than fine, you're vaguely relieved.The effort it takes to find commonality in your conversations,seems like a waste of time.We don't mean that in a cruel way,it's just that time seems more precious,and the people that you spend it with have to feel good.No more going thru the motions just to be polite.There is a benefit here.As you set these old acquaintances aside, they will feel set free as well.It takes a lot of energy to maintain a relationship that has run its course.It is psychically exhausting.If it fades away...let it.Don't feel guilty or obligated because of the past.They will feel the closure. You will start to feel this urge to purge on a regular basis.It is another part of this new energy.Not everything will make the cut!You are going to become VERY selective, and the things that do , will hold meaning and purpose.They will make you feel good, not guilty.It is about becoming lighter, and all this baggage will become too heavyto carry thru these coming days.Give into this urge to purge!You cannot fly without it!

It is very important that you are impeccable with your thoughts.They are the propulsion behind the trajectory of your life.If you are sloppy, your life will reflect that.The same applies if you are fearful or timid.It will feel as if you're living a half life.What you want to watch out for, are the thoughts that are self sabotaging.They slow down your momentum.Momentum is what you're after these days.Keep your thoughts focused on your desires,with the finish line in your sights.Paying very close attention to how you feel.Do you go through most of your day feelingempowered? Or defeated?Do you feel as if the Universe works with you?Or against you?Do your desires seem attainable to you?What is the first step in that direction?The energy these days can really amp up the momentum behindyour desires.It can act like a slingshot, helping you to reach maximum velocity.All you have to do is monitor your thoughts and feelings.Are you adding to that momentum, becauseNegativity and self doubt acts like drag, it slows things down.When you wonder why things are taking so long to manifest,look no further than your own energy, your own thoughts,then take some time to become impeccable.

Good Morning!So many of you are living in emotional pain and anxietybecause you are trying to maintain a toxic family relationship.And many of these are very one sided, YOU are the only one trying.It is true that blood is thicker than water, but the blood that runs thru your veinsgives you life.so does water.Now water can also destroy. So can blood.Just because someone is blood related does not give them the licenseto destroy you.To berate you,To physically or emotionally hurt you,To undermine you,To withhold love intentionally.A lot of you give them a pass.Because they are family, they feel they have your undying allegiance,And with that trust they manipulate you and cause you pain.THAT is not love.Whether it is your mom or dad, sister or brother, you must end that allegiancewhen there is a lack of love and acceptance.You all have harsh judges in your lives, they should not be your family.Because if that happens as you grow and mature, and you feel you can never do or be enough, that translates into adulthood as self doubt, self loathing, constant feelings of inadequacy and total lack of self confidence.We are advocating love and acceptance of these family members for who they are.They may never change.You may even find it in your heart to forgive.But you must not tether your heart to people who do not deservethat trust.Chasing after the love of a parent will translate into a lifetime of chasing love.You are better than that!Your heart is precious and should be cherished.Please know that, and honor yourself to the extent that You can step out of a hurtful family situation.They are blood, but they are not your real family.Your real family will uplift you,They will love you even if you stumble.They do not seek to humiliate or bully you.They practice unconditional love.Find THOSE people, and make THEM your family!

You came here to add your special "something" to the mix.Your job is to find out what that is,And do it!You are one piece of a giant cosmic puzzle,And you cannot be left out or the puzzle will be incomplete.What do you bring to this world?Is it your sense of humor?Is it your ability to be kind?Your gift with words?The way your smile makes people feel?You know deep down what it is you do better than anyone else.You do!It is the thing that makes you happy,That makes your heart sing.Can you tell a story better than anyone you know?Are you fabulous with children?Or animals?Do you have a green thumb, where plants just love you?Do you have a facility with language?Beautiful handwriting?Can you make a dress without a pattern?Cook like a chef?Repair almost anything with ease?Sing with perfect pitch?Remember people's names?Do you have a keen sense of direction?Are you a whizz with numbers?How about computers? Do you just love them?Are you a natural born leader?A gifted speaker?Do you love to paint?Are you an "uplifter"? Where you just make people feel good?Are you funny?Do you love to read? To exercise? Do you love to walk in nature?Are you getting this?It is the very thing you love, that you're good at,That is the gift you bring the planet.Don't get so bogged down with "life"That you overlook or bury these treasures.They may seem small and insignificant to you,But they are the missing pieces to a very important puzzle,And are needed now, more than ever!

So much more than flesh and bloodThan hair and bone.More than father, mother,sister, brother.So much more than any job or lack thereof You are energy, eternal pure perfection,Wrapped in love.You wear this skin for such a short time.It does not the essence of you define.You've come here for the planets sake,Leaving love and stardust in your wake.You are so much more than it may appear,Trust in that, just let that steeryou from mundane to miraculous,And remember this is not a test.You wanted to be here,And now you knowYou each make a difference you are so much more!!!

The space between each moment is filled with potential.You look at this pause as empty, but it certainly is not!The moment between awake and asleep is filled with possibilities.That is where intention is set.The breath before the kiss.That is where love takes hold.The breath before a single note is played, holds the promise of the entire symphony.The space between lightening and thunder seems quiet,yet the particles are dancing with electrical charges,just about to clap.At the starting gate, the moment before any race, There is a heightened awareness, every muscle in fullflex, the laser beam focus on the finish line.The moment before the candles are blown out on each birthday cake,There is the promise of a wish fulfilled.Just before a baby takes its first breath and cries it's first cry,Eternity resides in that moment.Space and silence are never empty.They are ripe and resonate with the possibilities held in each moment.If you can become conscious in that space,You can steer the miracles that occur,In the direction of your intentions.Don't ignore the space between,Harness that energy and become the master of your life!

Do you count your blessings everyday?Even if you have to search your brain to find them?In the midst of despair, this is your life preserver.It will help you keep your head above water,So you don't drown in a sea of negative thoughts.Turn it into a game, similar to counting sheep to go to sleep.Answer each negative thought that goes by, with one of Appreciation and gratitude.Every morning before you get up, in that place between awake and asleep,And every night as you fall asleep, count your blessings.This will shift the energy of the day you just had, or the one to follow.It will put you into a place of receiving.Receiving more of what you're grateful for.This attitude of gratitude is a very powerful way to shift your focusfrom what looks wrong in the world, or your life, to what's right.And there is SO much that is going well!Start slow at first, with simple things.Focus first on your life, then as you get going, it will be easierto move that focus out to your community, and then your county, and then the world.And as chaotic and broken as this planet may SEEM to be,there are endless things to be grateful for.We usually give you a list to start you off, but if feels like you can take thisand run with it.You're alive! and awake! with the empty canvas of each day ahead of you.Will you paint a picture of arduous hardship?or one of splendid harmony with those around you, knowing how lucky you are, and just how many things are going RIGHT!
