Fear keeps you small. Comfort keeps you stagnant. Doubt keeps you stuck. Love lifts you up. Love moves you. Love nurtures. Love transcends.
Be You Now
At some point, you need to be you. Like, go all in on being you. Go after that dream. Make choices for you. Lean into your passions. Don’t just stand in your truth, but also stand for your truth. When the chorus of voices outside of you are loud, tune in to that sweet voice within yourself. There is no perfect time. There is only now. Be YOU now.
Love Light
What is truly causing you discomfort about your situation? What is holding you back from speaking up or acting? It’s not uncommon to feel not enough or to make unbalanced comparisons or to resent or to be jealous. That pattern of thought and feeling is low-frequency. It’s negative and you know it. You know it by how you feel as you go down that rabbit hole. However, in those moments, you can switch on the highest of frequencies - LOVE. You can bring light to how you are feeling. You can be compassionate with yourself and nurture your well-being. There are endless things you can do from looking in the mirror and telling yourself, “I love you.” to meditation to taking a walk to calling that friend who always makes you laugh to dancing in your space to diving into your work or a hobby. Shine your love light on your insecurities.
Uncertainty
Uncertainty is where you’re vulnerable. And where you learn. Where you discover. Where you create. Where you change. Where you grow. Where you overcome.
Empathy
The more we consciously believe and act like there is an enemy, we will not experience peace. When we are against ourselves and each other, we choose separation instead of love. Empathy is how we recognize and relate to each other on this journey, together.
Be Honest
We can be so creative in the ways we self-sabotage. Of course, our own narrative can contribute the most to holding ourselves back. How we frame possibility. How we allow fear to be in the driver seat. And how we choose numbing familiarity over the expansive potential of disruptive change. In all of it, we bend and twist and sometimes force gratitude into the mix. Contentment is a state of clam. Settling is accepting less than what you desire. Gratitude is appreciation for it all. Leaning does not come from certainty. Growth is not stagnant. Be.
Choice
We trap ourselves in our circumstances (choice). But know this, your circumstances were once consequences of choices you made. You can make new choices about the life you want to create and live. And though your circumstances may seem daunting and overpowering, your choices can help you overcome, persevere, be exactly who you are meant to be.
Freedom
To feel free is to release the self-imposed restraints of what others may think or say about your truth. Your truth is yours to accept and nurture. Hiding your truth in the dark drains energy which could be used for self-healing, self-forgiveness, self-love, and self-expression. Your truth is worthy of the light.
Allow Your Truth
What will others think?
What will others say?
What will others do?
There is compassionate consideration and then there is self-abandonment. Sometimes it’s not about circumstances. Sometimes it’s not even about change. It’s just about you loving yourself. Accepting yourself. Allowing your truth to breathe.
Love More
We don’t need more love. We are love. Let’s love more.
Pull Back The Curtains
Even the closest, most trusted people in our lives have opinions about how we “should” see the world. If you are forever looking at the opinions of others, you are missing your unique opportunity to see life with your own eyes. To feel life with your heart. To experience life with your soul. To move through live in your own, authentic way. Mishaps and missteps. Milestones and miracles. Pull the curtains back!
We Can
We can control our intentions and our responses. We can choose to be present in the moment and move with grace and love. We can unlearn. We can acknowledge the lesson and release it. We can face our pain and make healthy decisions to heal it. We can be exactly who we are meant to be.
This Moment
Being present is not a trend. It’s a way of living. It’s not the norm because we are taught and encouraged to chase the next. To seek the prize. As if there is any greater prize than having a life to live. Consider nurturing a mindset of being present. Giving all you’ve got to each moment. Rather than thinking about what has happened or what may happen, be completely with what is happening. To have a moment to live...that.
One
Our beliefs come from our experiences. Therefore, the grand discussion is really not about which belief is more noble, but instead, how influential was the experience? Furthermore, having a different past experience could have established a different current belief. Even more than that, opening yourself up to new experiences can affect and even create new beliefs. And in all of this, no matter the experience or the belief, we can ground ourselves in accepting and honoring that we are One.
You Are Pure
We all get distracted from recognizing the purity, the beauty, and the splendidness of our true self in the moment. And yet, it remains. What causes us to be so distracted and more so, label oneself something one is not? Simply stated, our minds. Our experiences from the past. Our expectations about the future. Our looping of what ifs. The bombardment of cultural and societal shoulds. All of this feeds our minds to construct myths which distract us from what is. Strip away the outside landscape, silence the outside noise, let go of the past and the future. What is left? A beautiful, pure soul lovingly basking in the present moment.
Spread Love
Let’s do this!
We are love. We have the capacity to love. We can make the choice to love. We are one in love. Think love. Speak love. Be love.
Believe
It’s within you. Yes it is. You have the freedom to make the choice to be positive. Of course we experience challenges, loss, and pain. But those experiences need negativity to survive. Instead, you can dig deep and summon the strength to feed positivity to those experiences. Your positive energy has the power to transform challenges into an opportunities, loss into acceptance, and pain into healing. Believe.
Only Love
Not fear. Not judgment. Not anger. Not conspiracy. Not hate. Not indifference. Not resentment. Not pessimism. Not revenge. Not doubt. Not prejudice. Not racism. Not conditions. Not comfort. Not separation.
Enough is enough. We’ve tried all those other things. They don’t work. The only thing that connects us is LOVE. Love without thinking.
What Are You Feeding?
Love Is Simple
We have found different ways and words to justify the judgment of others. Social media and cancel culture. Anonymous attacks to expose. All done for the greater good. Shaming, in any context, does not teach or heal. We have become so removed from love energy that it is no longer our primary expression with each other. We reserve it as we create conditions. We deny it to determine if it’s deserved. We preach oneness and practice separation. We ask for positivity and share negativity. Love is simple, but we’ve made loving difficult.
