Suffering is the result of insisting that something be other than it is. Don’t fear discomfort – use it! Know that your life can be transformed and that you hold the key.

Gratitude
True happiness is not attached to anything specific. It is the natural state of being and always accessible. No matter what unfolds in your experience, the quiet joy of being resides. When we slow down and pay attention, we discover the beauty and delights that are all around us.
Gratitude is a powerful state of mind. It shifts realities, creates a space for new perceptions and opens us to infinite possibilities through acceptance and surrender to the present moment.
Self love is sexy
It’s that lightness of non-expectation that is so appealing. When you first meet someone, the attraction begins because you are simply being you. When we load ourselves up with the weight of expectation, fear and desire, that beautiful, original and carefree spirit gets buried underneath layers of thought.
Love yourself. Reward yourself with thoughts of praise. Know that others respect you and appreciate all that you do. With our loving attitudes, we help to create a world where it is safe to love one another.
Today, my intention is to good to come to me from everywhere and everyone.
Transforming darkness into light
- Arrogance – vanity transforms into pride
- Self-deprecation – abasement transforms into humility
- Impatience – intolerance transforms into daring
- Martyrdom – victimization transforms into selflessness
- Greed – voracity transforms into an appetite for life
- Self-destruction – thoughts of suicide transform into sacrifice
- Stubbornness – obstinacy transforms into a healthy life-affirming determination
Strong emotional reactions to a person or situation reflect that there is still something within us that requires healing. Pay attention to your state of consciousness. How often do you feel triggered? How quickly can you move back into balance?
Everything works for the highest good of all involved. With each step toward enlightenment, the love that shines through you benefits all those with whom you come in contact. Light transforms the darkness.
Living authentically
The ego loves to seek recognition. This may take the form of name dropping, boasting, speaking in a manner that underscores the listeners lack of knowledge or ensuring that everyone knows about supposed altruistic good deeds or accomplishments. When the ego desires to share an accomplishment for the purpose of feeling fulfilled, simply choose to remain silent. This will shift you into empowerment and greater awareness.Authentic people are quieter. The essence of their soul’s work comes through in their consistent peaceful attitude. Kindness is their natural response and they do not seek or need recognition from others in order to know their own value.
Let your life sing the melody of the Divine. Live your passion, follow your bliss and be a light to those who are still finding their way out of the darkness. That may be your purpose. If one life is changed in a positive and life-affirming way because of an interaction with you, you have left the world a better place… and there is no greater joy than that.
Unconditional love

Happiness
“There is no choice you’ve ever made, nor any you will ever make, that will limit you as much as you may fear.
Nor even limit you at all.
How cool is that?
Fear not, there have been no mistakes.”
~ The Universe
In every moment you have a choice. Should you notice discomfort, you may simply want to ask yourself why you are choosing to have that experience instead of the experience of happiness. Within the answer lies a gift.
Conscious suffering
Emotions are powerful teachers. They are an integral aspect of the human condition. Though we learn to ride the ups and downs of life and how to stay balanced through the turbulence we experience, emotions, when they arise, should be felt wholly and explored.
This is not to say that it’s appropriate to act in an unconscious manner or while trapped in a full-fledged egoic state; rather, we take the time to process our feelings, honoring them as part of our personal path of awakening.
This distance between suffering and peacefulness can be bridged by dropping our thoughts regarding a particular issue. Our role is to see beyond the stories of the mind and experience whatever feelings arise with an open heart. That is transcendence.
The journey of love
Because of this, it is possible to love those who play the role of hating us, to forgive things we once thought impossible to forgive and to be peaceful when it seems that peace is not at hand. Dear ones, you hold the key: inner transformation.
You have a Divine purpose. You walk a sacred journey. You are participating in raising the vibration of the planet. Relax into this wisdom and be willing to receive. Drop the barriers to love that you carry.
As you awaken, things begin to move faster. Karmic lessons present themselves, energies are balanced and you’ll find yourself quickly moving on to the next. The speed with which you advance is based upon the degree that you can love and accept yourself Now.
Be kind to yourself
But here and Now, life is filled with the miraculous. If you stop and look with an open heart, you’ll discover myriad things for which you can be grateful. Begin from where you are with what you have. Seek to fill this moment with gratitude and appreciation. Choose to find the beauty.
You can always cope with the present moment. All that you need to know will make itself known at the perfect time in the perfect way. It’s imperative to be kind and nurturing to yourself and time to break free from self-imposed misery.
Realize that you constantly have new insights and new ways of looking at the world. Move forward with confidence and grace knowing that all is well in your future, primarily because the future doesn’t exist – it will simply be another present moment that is filled with incredible beauty, things for which you can be grateful and the love and support of the Divine.
