The Daily Way

“Why did you do that?” you may have been asked when you gave away something precious or enacted a kind and selfless deed, and the answer, which may have come with a shrug of the shoulders reveals your deeper essence. You, beautiful soul, were simply being true to the Self. [...]

When you think you have nothing in common with another, look deeper. Yes, your stories may differ . . . the experiences, the locations, the characters may differ, but beneath the differences (yes, you see the root in this word), your roots are the same: the Light of Spirit. And [...]

Your prayers do make a difference. You are a creator-being. You do nothing in isolation. Each thought you have goes back into the Field from which it arose. With this awareness, know that thoughts are prayers. They need not be formal or ritualized to have an effect, but do send [...]

And so, you teach . . . or you nurse, or you work in a factory. It matters not the profession. How do you serve? You are in direct relationship with all others. Could you but see the grid of energetic cords that connect you all, you would cease pulling [...]

You are aware of the upward and outward flow of energy depicted as a crown or a lotus flower atop the head. You may well benefit from visualizing the same at the location of the root chakra, for what goes up also goes down. Balance is the goal when it [...]

Miracles abound if you take the time to notice. We are not speaking of large miracles where the oceans part, but moment by moment experiences where you cannot deny that you are part of something greater. You may call these synchronicities for there is an element of timeliness, delight, and [...]

When you cannot sleep for the mind is busy, surrender. Simply state this word with the awareness that by paying attention to the mind you are giving it fuel. With surrender you acknowledge that you cannot control the whirring and worrying. And so, you just let the mind go. And [...]

Do not view plants as simply things. They are living beings as you are. Of course we did not say, “just as you are,” but they are sentient nonetheless. You can have a conversation with them and they will tell you many things. If you scoff at this, perhaps you [...]

Follow that nudge. Oh, yes, at times it is oh, so subtle, but after enough times of experiencing that subtle push and ignoring it, you will come to recognize it more clearly, as the helpful inner suggestion that it is. And why is it so subtle? It is doing you [...]

“Climb every mountain.” Is this possible? Of course it is not. And what are the rest of these lyrics you learned as a child? “Follow every rainbow ‘til you find your dream.” How do you follow a rainbow? This is yet another impossibility. Does this mean your dreams are unreachable? [...]

Yes, they can manipulate devices, those who have passed. Yes, they can send you divine messages with the assistance of butterflies, dragonflies, birds large and small. Why is this? For the Source of these messages made them all. When you come to realize that you and your loved ones across [...]

Point of view is everything. How do you see the world? You are Spirit, dear one, and you are viewing experience through colored lenses. Have you been wearing the same pair of colored glasses for quite a while without the curiosity to try another pair? This can be quite limiting. [...]

Each moment you start anew. It is impossible to get through the earthly role without tumult. Do you carry that forward with you and build upon it or create a clean slate moment by moment? The answer is clear if you are experiencing chaos now. You can find peace by [...]

Meet others where they are but do so with love. You do not all see the world in the same way. As souls, you came into physical form for the variety of experiences this offers you as Love In Full Expression. At times you may clash when the prism through [...]

When you find yourself in a state of limbo, what do you do? Make a choice. Hell or Heaven are states of minds, dear one, not places. If you do not like floating in a nether world, choose to see the positive in any situation. This is not Pollyanna behavior. [...]

“Here we are.” This is how your loved ones in spirit optimally become known to you. They are not “out there” or to your left, right, behind, or in front. They are as they have always been and as you are as well: beings of Light, with this word meaning [...]

“Bring it on!” you might be bold enough to say as you raise your arms to the heavens and pray. And what is it you would have the heavens bestow upon you? Greater riches? Greater success? Greater ease? These are common human desires, and yet there is an innate desire [...]

Music is LIFE! Each note is Love In Full Expression. You in human form are the instrument through which LIFE is heard and enjoyed. All possible notes can be played by you and through you. At times you play off-key, and you naturally feel this dissonance for it is not [...]

How to see the oneness? Perhaps you have heard of this reality you are experiencing being like a game in which you are an avatar. In this case, who would be the player? “Why, the soul,” you might answer, and you would be correct, but that would still indicate a [...]

“You cannot please everyone.” This statement is true from the human perspective. The soul does not try to please. It merely shines, but as we use the term “merely”, do understand that this is what the soul does. It cannot help it, for shining is the nature of the soul [...]

You cannot resonate with everyone whilst playing the human role. You are meant to be different, programmed to see what separates you. How tiring! Would you like a respite? Fall asleep whilst awake. Sink deep down to the core of you where there are no difference twixt you and all [...]

Do you measure your worth by awards, abundance, accolades, titles? In human mode most of you do. But those in spirit, whilst they honor such achievements, give far more credit for that which cannot be seen with physical eyes or held in the hands. The first question asked without words [...]

All that you experience is the result of consciousness flowing in patterns. You are patterns within patterns of thoughts, emotions, memories, and so forth. This is why the holidays can be quite challenging when one you love is no longer present in physical form. The physical form is made of [...]

There is so much to be thankful for, most importantly, growth. How have you changed in the last year of human time? Are you moving upward, stagnating, or slipping backwards? Surely you have experienced bits of all of these states. Be thankful for the moments you shared love. Be thankful [...]

When something is crooked, do you feel an urge to make it straight? This is innate. When someone is down, do you feel a need to clown around? This is the soul’s presence coming around. Find the balance twixt up and down, left and right, loose and tight. The soul [...]

And so, you make your way to family gatherings on special dates. Is there a bit of trepidation or much joy? It can vary year to year, for you are ever evolving as a result of your experiences. But what happens when you gather to break bread? You can easily [...]

What does the body do when it feels threatened? It braces. What does the mind do when it feels threatened? It braces. What is the soul?  Expanded awareness. What is the human aspect of the soul’s expression?  Restricted awareness.  What is restriction?  Bracing. You are safe, beautiful human, for you are [...]

And so, you have been doing something a certain way for a long time, perhaps years. And perhaps it is working well. But what if there is a better way? Could you be open to that? Why would you not? Ah, yes, change could require effort, commitment, dedication. And what [...]

Can you be a calm presence in a storm? It makes a difference. When things get stirred up, if one can find the calm center, you serve as a beacon to others. “Look, come this way. You do not have to get caught up in the swirling, whirling energy.  Step [...]

Words can be weapons. By themselves, they are simply one letter put after another. But just as a physical weapon is an inert object until used with intention, words can either help or harm. When said with feeling and emotion, they carry meaning that is felt. “Be impeccable with your [...]
