One can not reflect in streaming water.Only those who know internal peace can give it to others.– Lao Tzu
518: Initiating change and cultivating new growth is an ongoing process that takes time and patience. Things are looking good and falling into place. One of the keys to our success lies in our ability to receive. Some people overextend the giving process but have trouble with receiving the blessings, assistance, and abundance when it comes around to them. Sometimes we need a reminder that it’s okay to receive so that we can embrace the good things that are offered. Remember to balance giving and receiving as it will help clear our energy and bring us peace. Also, keep in mind that abundance comes in many forms so make sure that you don’t limit yourself to just one thing. Accept them all and the doors open to new things and experiences will open. You are an amazing creator and you are worthy of all the blessings of the Universe.

One movement toward light becomes a clear signpost on a long road.– Mary Anne Radmacher
55: When Change shows up at your house in his beat-up truck and tells us to get in you better buckle up because we’re going for a ride baby! To clear the way and make and room start by letting go of a few things that are no longer working for you or that you have outgrown. (People, activities, thoughts, old resentments, etc.) Start small and work up from there. This makes it easier to tackle the larger things later if we keep in mind that things are connected and by picking apart the big things it makes them easier to let go of. Now give these things over to the angels and the Universe, then visualize packing up all the old things into a bag and tossing it off a bridge. I kid you not this visualization is truly empowering! The clearing away process creates the necessary space for better things. Remember, you deserve good things and life is too short to hang on to things that no longer bring you peace and joy!

Archangel Jeremiel helps us to make positive life choices.

Everyone who got where he is,had to begin where he was.– Richard L. Evans
45: In previous messages, we’ve talked about how change is necessary for our overall growth. Unwillingness to embrace change not only keeps us from growing, but it also keeps us from moving forward and fulfilling our dreams and goals.

There are two choices, fear change or see change as a new adventure. Today is a reminder to embrace the changes that life is offering. The Universe is asking us to have faith in ourselves, our helpers and our human support system. Ask for help, courage, and strength and they will be there for you. The changes that you make will be a good thing and will benefit all areas of your life. Be bold and embrace these changes head-on!

Now, a few weeks later, I am sitting in disbelief at just how quickly things have turned.

“We tell ourselves so many lies and half-truths … We listen and are duly impressed by these inner voices that turn into unseen judges that nag at us. We give each of these judges a seat of honor in our minds, all the while hating their guts and their never-ending supply of judgements … We give the judges permission to accompany us on each journey of life, never daring to realize that we can park them, at least momentarily.”
— Eloise Ristad
“The Inner Critic makes each of us a child. As we become the child in our relationships, we lose our sense of self. We are no longer self-contained, self- respecting adults. We look to others for validation. Our self-worth is based upon their opinion of us. Thus, everyone around us becomes a mother or a father whose support and approval is desperately needed to protect us from the constant criticism of the Inner Critic.”
— Hal and Sidra Stone

_________________________ Daily Wisdom April 1, 2020 Mystery
“Mystery is not the denial of reason but its honest confirmation: reason, indeed, leads inevitably to mystery…: mystery and reality are the two halves of the same sphere.”
-Walt Whitman (1819-1892)
It seems like we don’t even know what we don’t know! There is just so much to learn, so much to comprehend – so much that we don’t understand. And when we find a new topic of study, we learn a little bit and it opens up a whole bunch of questions! In that way mystery is beautiful. It lets us know that there is always more to be revealed.
