Every human being on the planet wants to be happy. Anything that anyone desires is because they think their desire will make them happy. Whether it is health, money, a loving relationship, material things, accomplishments, a job, or anything at all, the desire for happiness is the bottom line of all of them. But remember that happiness is a state inside of us and something on the outside can only bring fleeting happiness, because material things are impermanent.

Permanent happiness comes from your choosing to be permanently happy. When you choose happiness, then you attract all the happy things as well. The happy things are the icing on the cake but the cake is happiness.

The law is exact, the law is precise, and it never fails, so when it appears that it isn’t working, you can be guaranteed it is not the law that is failing. The error can only be with the person using it. This is great news! Didn’t it take practice to walk? Didn’t it take practice to drive? With practice you could walk, and with practice you could drive.

Practice is all that stands between you and everything!

What drives you? Our purpose in life has a spiritual foundation. Our MAJOR LIFE ISSUES are usually of 3 types: physical and POWER-ORIENTED, like making our stand and being more courageous; emotional and LOVE-ORIENTED, like expressing and receiving love, compassion and nurturing others; mental and INTELLECT-ORIENTED, like developing our minds and creating new things and processes. We are never given a spiritual challenge we can’t handle. Being aware of our drive and spiritual strength solidifies our ability to overcome our challenges.
“Your life has to do with the agenda that has been set for you by you, by that part of you that we’ve come to call, in our language, your soul.” -- Neale Donald Walsch

I have been listening to Caroline Myss's Energy Anatomy. I seem to align with Caroline more than I do Donna Eden. I am attending a seminar of hers this upcoming week. I get the aha factor with her, she puts what I am feeling, going through into words based on the chakras. Brilliant! Here is some info on her: http://www.lime.com/magazines?uri=consciouschoice.com/lime/2003/cc1609/carolinemyss1609.html

To change, we must go through a transition zone. It's not easy being in transition. Thoughts, beliefs and habits are all in flux. It can create a sense of groundlessness, of being in a void that can be quite uncomfortable. When we’re in the void, our first impulse will be to revert to old habits because they feel comfortable; however our goal is to hang in there until the change is complete. Change requires a letting go of what we’ve always known and done to allow in something new. We need to trust ourselves and higher forces to unfold a new reality for us.

“Every positive change – every jump to a higher level of energy and awareness – involves a rite of passage. Each time to ascend to a higher rung on the ladder of personal evolution, we must go through a period of discomfort, of initiation. I have never found an exception.” – Dan Millman

We have discussed that OUR WORLD MIRRORS WHO WE ARE BACK TO US. When we get upset by something outside of us, our reaction shows us that we have an inner wound to be healed. Just as we can be unconscious of our wounds, we can also be unconscious of our strengths. If you are really drawn to the positive qualities in another person, you are being invited to own those same qualities in yourself.
"Any situation that you find yourself in, is an outward reflection of your inner state of beingness." -- El Morya

When faced with a challenge that feels to you as though it is bringing negative change into your life, remember that every single thing that happens is ultimately for the good of each of us. It is not what happens, but what we do with the opportunity, and how we choose to look at it.

The Universe has to move things out to allow the better and more wonderful things to appear. Realize this change is happening because something fantastic is coming through!

Decide that you are going to verbally express at least one thing of appreciation to every person you come in contact with today. The more people you see the better. Take notice of how you are feeling at the start of the day, and then take particular notice of how great you are feeling when the day has ended.

Name one day of the week as your appreciation day, and do this exact process on that day each week, without fail. And then watch what happens to your life!

Every human being on the planet wants to be happy. Anything that anyone desires is because they think their desire will make them happy. Whether it is health, money, a loving relationship, material things, accomplishments, a job, or anything at all, the desire for happiness is the bottom line of all of them. But remember that happiness is a state inside of us and something on the outside can only bring fleeting happiness, because material things are impermanent.

Permanent happiness comes from your choosing to be permanently happy. When you choose happiness, then you attract all the happy things as well. The happy things are the icing on the cake but the cake is happiness.

If you have a problem with a member of your family who is negative, begin by writing a list of all the things you appreciate about that person. Remember to include gratitude to them for giving you a great desire for positivity in your life; because that is a gift they are giving you. As you focus with all of your strength on appreciation, you will not only reduce your exposure to the negativity, but at the same time you will be attracting positive people into your life.

Get yourself on to the appreciation frequency, and the law of attraction can surround you only with people who are in a positive state.

We cannot go back to something that never really existed, no matter how much we want to be in that moment where we felt we were in control or knew what was going to happen next. We have always been in the process of re-ordering the world, of shifting the illusion to reflect our own energetic paradigms as we worked to close old energetic cycles and bring in new ones. The difference between then and now is that this time we are in conscious control of the paradigm, we just have to recognize it and use our power to re-order the world to fit these new energies.

The world always looks better from the perspective of the past, when we think back on the ‘good old days’ when life was quiet and predictable. Even if it was not what we wanted or there were power and control issues, we could, to some degree, accept that as inevitable. We were in the same situation as many others around us and misery loves company. But as we have grown into our true, divine nature, we find many aspects of our current reality unacceptable, we see the flaws and disconnections within its fabric and the battle between the soul and the ego takes on new meanings.

The soul urges us to press on towards reconnection and our power, the ego wants to hold back and stay within what it knows. The more we resist the more our world gets dismantled as everything that is out of integrity with our power disconnects from us and we are, as many of us have experienced, looking at what used to be our life, wondering what we can salvage from the rubble the earthquake of disconnection has left behind. While it may appear to be disastrous, this is our point of power, where we get to re-order our world, to review each piece of the puzzle, to use what will work in our new world and release what doesn’t.

The most challenging aspect of this new world is the knowledge that whatever happens next is our decision. The world is not going to tell us what to do, that is part of the old paradigm that we have just taken apart. We have moved from destiny to creation, from following a known, well worn path to creating an entirely new one. The new world is waiting for us to create new, fulfilling realities that express the potential of these higher energies. While we stand around nervously, waiting for someone to let us know it is safe to proceed, the energies build until we get another sign that it is time for us to move forward.

In fact, we need to move forward because these new energies are many orders of magnitude faster and more responsive that anything we have ever known. So we do not have to wait months or years for things to manifest, they will manifest in weeks, days or sooner. But while it responds quickly, this energy does not always respond in ways that we anticipate. We must be clear with our intention and in integrity energetically with what we wish to manifest. So asking for something with having the beliefs and intention that support it simply will not work. What we will create will show us where we lack faith, clarity and integrity. There is no middle ground with this energy, we are either at its level or not and the results will show us where we need to make corrections.

Prior to this time, we began each lifetime at the energetic vibration of a lifetime we left behind. This is why we spent so much time in the energies of our soul groups, working through lessons that we have repeated many times before. This energy begins at a level that is well beyond karma, healing and past life lessons. We have been wishing and hoping for a new reality and here it is. Have we become so accustomed to waiting that we do not know what to do now that we have arrived? Are we afraid that once we take that first step, no one will be there to greet us or will follow us into our new world?

While we may think we need others’ guidance and supportive presence, we can take this journey alone. In fact, we have always been on an individual journey, no matter how many people our life contained. Where we may have been so intertwined in each other’s energy that we felt their life was ours too, as we re-order our lives and take back our power, we realize how scattered and diffused our energy has been. Then we see what a small portion of our energy we have been using for ourselves and how much we have been giving to everyone else. Re-ordering the world begins with us, how we choose to use our energy, embrace our power and consciously create the life and the world we wish to have. Re-ordering the world has little to do with destruction and everything to do with moving energy, reclaiming our resources and remembering who creates the unfolding reality that is the expression of our potential.

Meditation is considered an essential practice for those who seek self-knowledge and self-mastery. Why? Basically, meditation brings awareness of how our minds work. Over time, we become watchers, able to detach from the thoughts and emotions that play out in our minds. With this detachment, we gain the freedom to choose whether or not to act on our thoughts and emotions. We learn to distinguish between objective reality and our mental and emotional dramas.
"Meditation brings wisdom; lack of meditation leaves ignorance. Know well what leads you forward and what holds you back, and choose the path that leads to wisdom."-- Buddha

Have you ever been in the moment where you feel the tug, the chaos of ego yet it is serenity that you feel? Serenity, all the while the mind races, the ego begs, the I prods.
