There is often humor in what you consider the darkest moment.  You often laugh when you want to cry.  This is called grace.  The urge to giggle is a reminder that not all is darkness.  In that moment of Light, look around you and find the love as well.  That [...]

Scarves in a basket … pictures on a shelf … a scent that lingers in a closet.  It is as if they are still in the room with you, or are these just memories?  Yes and yes.  All is Consciousness, which is the same as Light, which is the same [...]

What does it mean to be a Light?  Sailors understand the power of a beacon guiding them home and keeping them from shoals and hazardous rocks.  A light serves many purposes:  It heals, it guides, it warms, it illuminates, it causes things to grow.  Is it any wonder you are [...]

Does your earth stop revolving?  Does the sun fail to shine?  Then why would you stop growing?  You are here for the endless experiences, one learning opportunity after another.  They may not all be pleasant and they may not all be painful.  In fact, if you are honest, you will [...]

Alcohol, drugs, and food—initially you use these in excess to feel better.  Eventually they make you feel worse.  The unconscious human is in an ongoing battle with the self, constantly seeking pleasure and pushing away pain.  You need not do anything to excess to realize that this constant seeking of [...]

“Follow me” … words said by a leader.  And what is it that causes others to do so?  It is magnetism—a confidence and inner light that says, “This one can be trusted.  I wish to do as they do and I feel safe in doing so.”  Is it your head [...]

“Am I worthy?” What a question … The fact that you feel the need to ask it shows how distanced you are from your True Self. All is Light. All is Love, and by “all” we do not mean that some are left out. “All” means all, which would include [...]

Service to others … the grandest of callings. Does this mean you give up your other work if service is not involved there? Not at all. We daresay that any job can contain great elements of service when you see it as a means to such. Did you know that [...]

Simplification. This is a good word and concept for you to keep in mind. Why do you rush about so, and why does the mind whirl? What are you trying to accomplish and why is this goal so important? Put yourself on a beach and stare at the water. That [...]

Stiff and unbending. Is this not what you call someone who must always go by the book? There is a time for rules, and there is a time for originality and creativity. Do you want to always follow the crowd, or do you want to flow with the creative juices [...]

Have we not told you that you are the Light? You may appear to yourselves to be solid, but we see you as individual lights. Some appear more bright than others. Imagine how you look to us when you band together to turn up the light. Can you picture the [...]

Does it help to "get upset"? Not if by this you mean to "become" upset. For you ARE not upset. Upset may be present in your human experience at a certain moment in time, which is also human (time), but upset is not a quality of your soul nature. Does [...]

Hear us well: being spiritual does not mean that you do not feel pain. You are living in a world of duality, where pain, due to the Law of Balance, is equally present with pleasure. Does this mean you stay in a state of pain once you acknowledge it and [...]

“Surely you jest!” Do you not say this when incredulous that another has made what you consider an unbelievable or inaccurate statement? And when you learn that they are quite serious, what then? Why, you face a decision: to alter your belief system or not, to allow the other to [...]

You speak of recharging your batteries. There is much similarity with this and clearing your energetic field. How often are you around others who are not well or are quite sad? How often do you mix with others who speak negatively? These types of situations drain your batteries far more [...]

The connection with your guides and higher self may not always be evident. There are a number of reasons why you may not sense us. Perhaps the body is tired or energetically blocked. Perhaps you need to be reminded of the difference between being in the flow and “making the [...]

“Not good enough. Not good enough.” Do you not recognize this as programming? These are not messages from the soul. Spirit does not pull you down in this way. Only human egos do this. To think that you are not good enough is learned behavior which becomes an ingrained pattern [...]

When at last you think you know it all, think again. And then be willing to admit that you, of yourself, know nothing. It is this attitude that will allow you to continue growing. Growing in what way? In your ability to love as does the Source of All That [...]

Whether you journey near or far, we are there. You never walk alone. You may become so preoccupied with your human endeavors that you do not notice us or think to think of us, but we have not gone anywhere. We occupy the self-same world, but at a different level [...]

Imagine a crystal ball, clear as can be. Is it a tool of magic? Not at all. It is a point of focus, just as can be a candle, a mirror, a flower, or any other object real or imagined of your choosing. The point of such an object is [...]

You cannot fail. You can only fail to understand how you fit into the grand scheme of things. If you think this earthly world is the only world, then you will fail to see love all around you. If you think that physical matter is really solid, then you will [...]

When others do not act as you wish, do you grow frustrated? Angry? Are you their puppet master? We do not wish to be critical, merely to make a point: You cannot control others’ actions or thoughts. Ego would like you to be in control of all around you, including [...]

Act as if you are _____ and you will be. Have you not heard this? Fill in the blank with whatever you wish. Your entire life you are acting out roles, so when you have a new role you would like to play … a new way of being you [...]

Yes, you can strive for the things you want and think you need. There is nothing wrong with that. Have we not told you that right and wrong are human concepts? All simply is. You give it meaning. And so, you give meaning to a goal and you go for [...]

Zero defects—a human concept—that something could be less than perfect by having defects in the first place, and then not have them at all. Is perfection possible? In a realm of relativity there is only “more or less than.” And so you strive. And so you compare. And so you [...]

You gather together and join hands in a circle. What have you done? You have formed the symbol of oneness with no beginning and no end, where no one member of the circle is any more or less important than another. All are equidistant from the center. Now imagine the [...]

We know you want to change the world. We know you are frustrated by the current state of affairs. All in good time, my friend. Is your own house in order? Yes, we know it is getting tidier by the minute, but our point is to remind you that each [...]
