Be gentle with yourself

With soul work we must be patient with ourselves. As the Divine makes itself known to you, you\’ll become more attuned to the harmony of which you are a part; however, the ego loves to plant the idea that we should be farther along by now… and we become impatient with the process of awakening. As you walk in the realm of time and space, keep in mind that you are an infinite being. Time is a construct of the mind and impatience can be our greatest barrier.

Waiting – for enlightenment, healing, healthy relationships, safety – is a future based activity. The most empowering thing that you can do for yourself is to choose joy Now, in this moment. Then life takes on it\’s own momentum and we cease to limit ourselves with expectation and desire.

Patience can teach you how to be more aware, more alert. We cannot force things to reveal themselves before the appropriate time; however, the more patient you are, the quicker things seem to move. Awareness requires kindness, compassion and a peacefulness that begins within… and from there anything can happen.

Today my intention is to be willing to grow and change. Every moment presents a wonderful opportunity to explore more facets of my personality.
