Never be afraid to try new things, especially when the thought of achieving them brings great joy and excitement.  “What if I fail?” is a human thought.  Recognize it as such.  Honor your human side, and then set it aside.  You are not only human.  You came here to experiment, [...]

It is a dance you engage in with life.  But who will take the lead?  It is when you get into a push-pull with life that you experience angst.  What if you did not always have to be in the lead, but you flowed together?  Life has a rhythm.  If [...]

Sanaya ... if you were to look up this name we have asked to be called, you would find that one of its meanings is “One Worth Knowing.”  In this case, it is a most fitting name for all of you.  Whether you accept this truth in your heart or [...]

You become habituated to react in a certain way with certain people.  Think about two acquaintances approaching you at separate times.  You may open up your energy field to one and close it down to the other depending upon past interactions.  Oh my, how the human side limits new experiences.  [...]

Cherubs appear on an airport wall in three dimensions.* They look so real.  How do you know they are not?  Who created these holographic images of loving beings?  A being with intelligence and a desire to create.  And who created this intelligent being called a human?  A being with intelligence [...]

Can you be content to just be?  How often do you sit and do nothing?  Why then, the thoughts might take over, the memories come flowing in, and to some, that is quite frightening.  To just be present with this moment without falling to the past or future is a [...]

Do your work of service not because you must help others, but because it is joyous.  Each is on their own path and finding their way.  Yes, you may help in your way, but beneath the surface, it is all Source and all is well.  Each of you is a [...]

People will not always act as you want them to.  Can you flow with that?  You do not have to like what they say or do.  You do not have to agree with them, but if you can accept that this is what you are facing now, perhaps a different [...]

Why do you at times feel a sudden burst of love for another, even for one you may have never met? It is because something within you desires to express its true nature, which is love.  Something within you senses in that seemingly separate other a chance to reflect this [...]

You can read all you want, or you can allow Wisdom to arise in awareness.  You can study all you want, or you can observe and ask, “What do I need to know?”  We are not speaking of your text books for material matters.  Yes, study well to live your [...]

Imagine you are standing on a stage and you can play any role you wish.  Any one.  What does it feel like, waiting to be told by the director which role you will improvise next?  This is a bit what it is like to be Source ... simply being without [...]

A day of gratitude.  Can you give yourself this gift?  Oh, how your life would change if you would take just one day and promise the Self to see the many things with which you are blessed.  The human is conditioned from the beginning of time to see the dangers, [...]

You have an inner counselor who will be there for you if you are willing to talk and share your innermost feelings.  Listen, and you may be surprised at what this counselor says back.  Keep digging, and more and more will be revealed.  Write as you hold these private conversations.  [...]

There is quite a difference between doing and being.  With being, you flow.  Picture a leaf in a stream.  There is no effort.  It is moving effortlessly with the current.  In doing there is effort.  Oh, how much easier your life would be if you would learn to find that [...]

Rocks in a stream.  They impede the flow, but what does the stream do?  It does not stop.  It flows over and around, caressing the rock.  It does not complain, “Oh, you are in my way!”  No, onward it flows, ever so slowly wearing away at this obstacle without any [...]

You spray perfume to clear the air of unwanted scents, but what do you do with unwanted thoughts?  They do not disappear so easily, especially if you simply mask them.  Why, you look them straight in the eye, so to speak.  You acknowledge that they have arisen, for this is [...]

What is the first thing you think when you look at another? How do you judge that book by its cover? Do you notice the size, the shape, the gender, the race? Do you notice the smile, the frown, the lines on the face? This is pure training. You learned to see in this way. It [...]

Interpretations.  You read words passed down through the ages.  What do they mean?  Will you trust the interpretation of someone other than yourself, who may have been told what to believe by others as well?  Or will you move awareness to the heart, where dwells pure Awareness, your very Source, [...]
