Choose Peace

bluewatervoyaging.com

You have a choice in how you live each day.

You have a choice in the thoughts you choose to harbor,

The feelings you choose to hold onto.

The choice is always yours

Because you have free will.

Choose peace.

Dear One, life in the physical world is an adventure, but also a challenge. With this existence you have many choices to make, much freedom in how you move through your day. And yet, this human condition, with its illusion of separateness and plethora of emotions, can present a challenge to remembering your divine nature.

Can you open your eyes to the opportunities, the beauty, the joy and the love which surrounds you every moment of the day? There is beauty everywhere. Even in the most dire of situations, the Mother might send you a songbird or a ray of sunshine to pierce the darkness you feel enveloping you.

You are master over your mind, not servant to it. You have the power to cease those thoughts that invite you into despair and frustration. You have the power to raise your vibrations to those of peace and gratitude. Much of how you live your life falls into a pattern, a habit, which can be broken.

Choose peace. When you feel those emotions of lower vibration begin to well up within you, choose peace instead. You are not alone in this. There are many of you who experience the same challenges in changing their perceptions of their world; from a world filled with despair to one of joy. But it is possible to do this with support, from the unseen world and from others who understand that which you are experiencing.

We say to you again, you have the power to change your world. It begins with changing your perspective, with loving yourself and believing in yourself and your capacity for love and forgiveness. You are a Divine Being, existing in a physical world filled with emotional responses. And the emotions you feel are a guide to where you are on your spiritual path.

Can you love unconditionally, yourself and others? Can you forgive yourself and others, rather than holding onto old hurts? Can you see the divine within all of creation, from the smallest of creatures to, yes, your greatest adversaries? Can you focus on the beauty in your life rather than the perceived darkness?

This is not to say that you turn a blind eye to suffering, for suffering is a part of this journey of personal growth. But suffering can be diminished by how you see your world. Can you see the opportunities, the possibilities, and trust the unfolding of your life with faith that all is as it should be?

Challenges occur every day. The question is how you respond to these challenges. Do you worry and fret, or do you choose peace, with the understanding that all will be well? Do you continue to worry about that which has not occurred? The truth is that outcomes can be far grander than you can even imagine.

Choose peace, when those worrisome thoughts try to lodge within your mind. Remember that you are master over your mind. Choose peace, and silence the repetitive thoughts which bring your vibrations down. Tell your mind that instead, you choose peace. And seek help if you need support. You are not alone.

Choose wisely those with whom you spend your time. For as the vibrational changes continue to occur, you may become more sensitive to lower energies put out by others. Consider quiet time to replenish your spirits. Cease exposure to drama when possible. Observe, but do not engage in drama created by others. Send love and find compassion for others, and for yourself, as you move forward on this path.

Choose peace.

Love, as you have never loved before, as your capacity for this is infinite.

Focus on the beauty, the joy, that is present in your life.

Cease the worry about that which has not occurred

And trust that all is unfolding as it should.

The possibilities for growth exist in every challenge that comes your way.

And as you continue to grow, you will be able to find gratitude for those opportunities.

But for now, know that you have someone by your side at all times.

At ALL times.

Choose peace, Dear One.

Dear One with All of Thee.

Connection to All

http://www.buzzfeed.com

No matter the label, the appearance, or the actions

You have a connection to all who cross your path.

Perceived differences are diminished by what you have in common,

The connection of love with all.

Dear One, the differences you perceive with others in this world are minimal when you reflect upon what you share with each other. Can you begin to focus upon what you have in common with others and begin there? Can you realize that love is still the bonding force, even though you may have disagreements in how you see this world? It begins with mutual respect, kindness and active listening.

All of you came here, to this physical existence, to experience a different way of being than which you are accustomed. Each and every one of you had the courage to embark on a journey that would encourage you to see yourself as separate, rather than being as one with all. Your choice was to come to this plane to learn lessons unattainable elsewhere.

As you move forward through this life, you are given opportunities to see yourself divinely connected with all, rather than separate and alone. The pace of this world encourages you to take everyone you meet at face value because you do not feel you have the time to delve deeper. You choose to not use that precious time of yours to listen with your heart, rather than with your mind. This results in pre-conceived notions of who that other person really is and what they really want from this world.

Can you take a breath and pause? Can you give others the attention required to move past the label or judgment, placed upon them by yourself or others? For if you allow yourself this opportunity you will begin to see how much you share in your lives.

Remember that one situation may evoke different emotions in each of you because of past experiences. Each of you came here to learn individual lessons. You came here with different traits, placed in different situations, to assist you in learning those lessons. But do not forget that any lessons learned by you as individuals also help the group consciousness move forward.

One individual life could not experience all of the lessons necessary for the expansion of the Universe. And so, each of you contributes in your own way, as you move through your individual lives. If you were to scratch beneath the surface of everyone’s life, you would find the same hopes and dreams for a life of peace and love. You would find the same yearning to feel ‘at one’ once again with all. You would see the same self-doubt, fear and worry that you have experienced.

Can you, instead of quickly attaching a label or preconceived notion on someone, can you instead, stop and listen to them; stop and see how similar you truly are? You all have been given free will to explore this life with all the possibilities it provides. And you all have learned lessons and have grown. The question we ask is if you have grown from that person you were just a day ago, why would not another have done the same?

Can you see each person anew each day, knowing that they are different today than they were yesterday? Can you realize that others have regrets of actions or words done in the past, just as you have? Can you see them as a being of light, challenged by this physical existence, trying to come back to center, to who they really are, just as you struggle with the feeling of being alone and separate.

Remember that each and every one of you has a deep memory of being one with all, and each of you are trying to find your way back to that wondrous feeling of being a part of something greater than yourself. Your journeys may be different, but your paths are the same; back to the Source. Your situations may be different, but you are the same; with different ideas, but with the same hopes for connection and peace.

Dear One, can you begin to look for the similarities rather than focus on the differences? Can you act with kindness and respect toward each other, rather than re-act with emotion seated in misunderstanding? Can you begin to join hands and hearts and consciously work together; for you already are working together on another level as kindred spirits experiencing this physical plane?

Take a breath.

Take a step back and change your perspective.

Change begins with you.

Open your heart, open your eyes and join each other on this journey of life.

Begin to understand why we call you

Dear One with All of Thee.

Open Your Mind

New experiences beckon you

With the potential of great expansion

Of love, joy and growth.

Dear One, can you allow yourself to turn off those pre-conceived notions of how your world should be? Can you set aside your thoughts of what is normal and true and just allow yourself to be carried forward on the waves of receptivity and adventure? It is time to open your mind to the infinite possibilities of experiences available to you at this moment, at this time.

How many of your great artists, great thinkers, great leaders have forged a new path away from the accepted ways of being, of thinking, of seeing? They had the courage and the willingness to think outside of the box, in order to take a great leap forward. Many were skeptical at first, but how many of these fresh ideas are now the normal way of being?

In order to take the great leap forward now required at this time, you are being asked to move forward without judgment or pre-conceived notions of how things must be. If your reason for acting or thinking in a certain way is because that is how it has always been done, then it is time for a change.

We are not saying to turn a blind eye to that which you feel in your heart is morally wrong, for indeed your truth lies within your heart. What we are suggesting is that you release the fear that is generated by your logical thinking, in that mind of yours that requires life to be a certain way. Do you really understand all that is possible in your world?

Remember back to when you were a child and all experiences were new and exciting. Now, as an adult, have you become set in your way of thinking, seeing and feeling just because that is how it has always been? Are you turning a blind eye to new possibilities because you are too set in your ways? Can you stop assuming that you know what the outcome will be before it even begins to manifest? Can you ask yourself if your thoughts are guided by fear of the unknown, thoughts of unworthiness or perhaps lack of faith that there are infinitely more possibilities than you can ever fathom?

Dear One, open your heart and open your mind. Give the unthinkable, the unreasonable or the impossible experiences the attention you give only to the logical and the ordinary. Life here upon this plane is meant to be anything but ordinary. But yet, how can your experiences expand beyond the ordinary if you continue to row without un-tethering the boat from the dock? Can you allow the stream of consciousness which flows within and through you to carry you to sights unseen, to experiences considered impossible, by that logical mind?

You are the adventurous soul who came here for the experiential journey. Do not allow fear to tether you to the dock when the current rises and beckons you forward. Suspend all judgment of what is possible and allow yourself to be taken further than you ever imagined going.

The time is now. Open your mind. Open your heart and take a chance. Rather than saying ‘I cannot or That is not possible’, say instead ‘Yes, I can or Anything is possible’. Indeed that is so, if you are open and receptive. Be the adventurer, the leader, the creator of your own life; a life of endless possibilities and experiences.

Do not limit yourself or your world. Open it to love. See the opportunities where you never did before. They are there and will carry you to unknown destinations if you allow them.

You are strong enough.

You are courageous enough.

You are safe enough to do this.

Take a chance on life.

Close your eyes, open your heart and jump into that stream of consciousness.

 

Discover what is really possible.

You will look back and ask ‘Why did I not do this sooner?’

The time is now, Dear One.

Dear One With All of Thee

Balance

http://www.gravityglue.com

How do you walk this day?

Do you do the same things the same way every day?

Or do you make small changes

To experience life in a new way

With each step that you take?

Dear One, how do you live your life daily? Do you constantly push forward towards a goal, focusing only on that goal at the expense of everything else? Do you pause on occasion to experience your surroundings, your life, your loved ones? Do you do the same routine day after day; or do you make small changes to experience something new each day? How do you move through your day?

Personal goals are important in your growth here upon this plane. But it is easy to create an imbalance in how you live your life. You have all heard the expression that it is more about the journey than the destination. But how much have you really considered this well-known adage?

Can you stop for a moment and consider how well balanced your life is at this very moment? Perhaps you do have a specific goal you wish to reach, but consider the driving force for reaching that goal. Are you motivated by fear or by love? And should you not reach your goal, will you consider yourself and your life a complete failure? Will you discount all of the successes you have had along the way to reaching the present point in your journey?

Many of you seem to focus only on the negative, the lack or the failure to see the positive results, the personal growth developed along the way. Is the endpoint really the only aspect of your journey that is given consideration? Have you paused long enough to review what you are doing, how you are doing it and the sacrifices, planned or unplanned, which have occurred along the way?

Dear One, remember to step back from time to time to look at the larger picture, to review your life, your current situation, from a higher perspective. For many have donned blinders which allow them only to see one thing, the goal.

What would happen if you occasionally took a long look at what you have accomplished up to this point? Would you see balance in your life between work and play; between routine and new exploration? Have you truly asked yourself if your motivation is love or fear in this journey you have chosen?

Remember that new experiences encourage you to be present in the moment, for your attention is required to move through new territory. Remember that focusing only on the future causes you to miss the present with all of its joys, beauty and loving moments. Remember that each day brings you opportunities to grow, to succeed with grace and love.

Take a moment this day to reflect upon how balanced your life is at this time. Reflect upon the joy you receive from your daily activities. Consider the possibilities of making small changes in your routine that will provide you with a fresh outlook on your life, your world.

Dear One, do not deny yourself the opportunities for joy that small changes can bring to you each day. Approach each day with the wonder of a child who is seeing something for the first time. Do not assume that you know what is possible because of what occurred yesterday.

Balance your life with new experiences, with love and with celebration of personal successes achieved every day. Do not limit yourself by moving forward with blinders on which allow you only to see your goal. Remove them periodically and drink in the beauty, the love and joy which surround you every moment of your day.

This life is a gift for you. Accept this gift.

Also understand the gift of you, and how your presence affects others in a positive way.

You are a wondrous being, here to grow and to change the world, one breath at a time.

Loving Thoughts

https://sindianavisions.wordpress.com/2011/05/17/calla-lily-portrait/

 

Honor yourself for all the joy you have brought to others

Honor others for the gifts they have given you

Some very apparent

While others require quiet reflection

In order to see the power of the interaction,

To see the perfection of the gift

As you move forward on your path this day.

Dear One, every interaction is a holy interaction, a sacred exchange of energy and love. A completion of a promise made a long time ago. An act performed in love; though this recognition may take much quiet reflection to be seen.

Can you walk this day with love in your heart for all of creation? Can you bless everyone and everything you pass on your journey this day? Can you open yourself to the love surrounding you by coming from your heart, rather than your mind, this day?

Love is all there is. Love is all that is required. It is the Ego, the mind where Ego lives, which encourages you to feel otherwise. It is the Ego which continues to tell you that you are alone and required to fight for what is yours, in a land of scarcity and fear. When, in fact, the truth lies within your heart.

Creation came from love. All of existence came from love and all will return to the loving embrace of the Source, upon completion of this physical journey. Ascension is occurring across this plane, for the growth of all of you. It requires a loving acceptance of your personal life being one of growth and not punishment or shame.

Can you change your perception of this day and your life to see a gift of self-exploration? Can you accept that this world is not a battlefield, but a playground, and that you are being watched with tender care, by those who love and support you?

Begin this day to change your world, both personal and global, by changing your perspective of what you see around you. Can you see others as wounded souls in need of love, rather than adversaries? Can you honor Mother Nature for all that she provides for you, free of charge? Can you accept that you are never alone and trust the part you play in the Universal web of connection?

For every perceived negative situation in your life, there is also a positive way to view it. Choose this positive viewpoint. Reflect upon the words you use and choose softer, gentler words when you converse with others. Breathe love into any memories which elicit fear within your body or your mind. And with every breath you take, send love out into this world.

Use your personal power to help with the ascension occurring as we speak. Tread softly, speak gently, and trade judgment for compassion in all that you see.

Begin today to share the love you have within. Contribute to the rising vibrations across this plane. It begins with you, accepting your true nature as a loving, spiritual being with only love to give. Give it freely to others and also give it to yourself.

All are worthy.

All are receptive.

And all are capable of returning love to you.

Give them that chance.

Give them your love.

Dear One with All of Thee.

Vision

http://spiritualityhealth.com/

How do you see?

What do you see?

Do you love what you see?

Or do you judge it?

Dear One, all that surrounds you is divine, from the smallest to the grandest in your sight of vision. All of it is divine. How you see it depends on your perception which is filtered by your personal experiences.

Can you begin to see through the eyes of the Divine, that all of creation is One with the Source, One with You?  All that you see is an extension of you.

There is not a Thee and Them. There is not a separation of energy. You may perceive a separation of form but if you see with your mind’s eye, it will become apparent that you are not separate from anything or anyone who stands before you. Accepting this truth will change how you move through your world.

If you express love for Mother Nature, for your furry companions or for a fellow traveler on this plane, then that love is also directed back to you. At the same time, if you do not love yourself, it is impossible for you to truly love anything or anyone you perceive to be external from you. For all are one and the same.

All are created in love. All are composed of love, even those who do not appear loving on the surface. For, Dear One, love is all there is and love is the path to freedom for Thee and for Them, for All. As you walk through your day can you see all things as an extension of yourself? If you are in the presence of someone who dearly loves you, can you accept that you are one with that loving person as the energy of love is what connects you.

Can you change the filter through which you view your life and see yourself surrounded by love? Perhaps for some, that love is currently cradled in fear; fear of lack, fear of the future, fear of being unlovable. And yet the possibility exists for every step, every touch, every breath that you take to be filled with love. It begins with you.

In your mind’s eye, can you see the vibration of love flowing outward from your fingertips? Can you see the essence of love filling your breath as you exhale throughout your day? Look for it. What color is it? Surround any fear that you encounter, be it your own or that which emanates from another, surround that fear with love. See it in color and wrap that fearful energy in the color of love.

We have spoken of the web of connection in the past. Change that to the network of love that surrounds your planet. See it flowing to and from everything and everyone. If someone attempts to send you fearful thoughts, stop them in transit, surround them with the color of love and transmute that energy to more positive energy.

There is much power in love. Can you see the beauty of it as you look around and see it everywhere? You already gravitate towards it when you seek out those embodied souls who emit loving energy with every breath. Join them in this practice and notice how others begin to gravitate towards you.

Forward movement requires love, not fear. For beneath that external crust of negativity resides a being with a memory of the existence of love. Help them to once again see the vision of love everywhere. Trust the touch of love we send you now and share it with others.

Cease your judgment of self and others. Replace that judgment with love and compassion. See the love surrounding you. Feel it, for indeed it is there. This is how you move forward, not in fear, but in love.

Dear One, change your perception. You are needed at this time to help transmute the negative energies that attempt to rise upon this plane. It begins with you.  Inhale the love that surrounds you and send it back out to others.

Share the universal love with yourself and others.

Dear One with All of Thee.

How You See Your World?

http://www.bernardalvarez.com/

Do not forget the power that lies within you.

The power to see a world of strength and love

Or a wounded world filled with chaos and strife.

Which do you choose to support with your vision?

Dear One, as your world continues to change in its forward movement you have a choice as how you approach the coming days. You can focus on the negativity, the chaos and the suffering. Or, you can raise the vibration by seeing it in growth towards a loving end.

We have told you before how powerful your thoughts are as the veil between worlds continues to fade and you continue to grow. With each passing day, you personally become stronger and closer to the Source. You are being given choices on how to move forward. And it is in these choices that you begin to spread your wings and fly.

Dear One, remember that your world can be seen in many different ways. Just consider the differences in opinion that occur over the description of one event. Many see it as positive while an equal number will see it as negative. This is where the growth occurs, as you have been given free choice as how to move through this holographic world of existence.

Your thoughts send out energy into your surroundings. They can affect others just as others can affect you with the thoughts they send out into the universe. Those of you who are sensitive are already very much aware of this concept. But many others may not understand the power of this exchange.

When you see something or someone broken, requiring healing, you continue to hold that event, that person, in a lower negative light, in a lower vibration. This continues to support a static condition, unchanged in its negativity.

Can you instead, see that person, that situation, as positive, as whole, not requiring healing but only loving support, as growth continues to move this person or event forward? If you can view all before you as whole and already healed then you are supporting positive growth by helping to keep their energetic vibration high.

This is why sending love, walking in love rather than fear, will support the growth of this physical plane, of the entire Universe. Although you continue to see the world through your physical senses, what you see this way is an illusion. The reality of your existence is within your energetic vibrations. This is where the strength, the power lies.

We understand that it can be difficult for you to accept the power of what for many is an unseen force. But consider the effect of a loving glance sent to you. Do you not feel that warm embrace of love? Contrast that to one filled with anger and pain. Both of these actions send equal and opposite energy to you.

Consider the difference when you see someone as whole and already healed rather than broken. The thoughts you send either help raise the vibrational field surrounding another or support the lower vibration that has contributed to perceived negativity and stunted growth.

Dear One, see your world, your fellow travelers, as whole and moving forward in grace and love. Send loving, supportive thoughts rather than contributing to any negative views of the person or situation. This is not to say that you should not take action that will help others to see the world in a similar light. But can you act in a loving fashion, rather than allowing yourself to contribute to stunted growth?

The power of love, the power of working with positive energetic vibration is greater than you could ever imagine. Take action, if you feel called to do so, but do it in the spirit of love rather than fear or anger. The most powerful action you can take is to send love to all concerned while seeing the person or situation already healed.

Dear One, sit today for a moment and consciously send out love with each breath that you take. If you find yourself unable to sleep, begin to send love out to the world with each breath. When faced with a volatile situation, send love rather than escalating the situation with anger or fear. This can be used in all aspects of your life. And as you begin to practice this meditation, it will become second-nature to you.

For Dear One, you are filled with love. This is who you are.

Allow your true self to emerge with calm and steady breaths sending love out to all.

Trust the power of this.

Trust your own power, for it is greater than you realize.

Dear One With All of Thee.
