Do you feel a bit stuck? Do you want to grow more? Are you ready to see what's next for you? What amazingness is about to bloom in your life?
A seed will only grow in the right conditions. You can't plan a seed in a pile of cement and shout, "GROW GROW GROW!" and expect it to flower. We must place the seed in a soil that is fertile, a soil that is fresh, a soil that creates a proper environment for the seed to flourish.
Our lives are just the same. We cannot create a life of joy by planting thoughts of doubt and fear. We cannot create a life of happiness when we surround ourselves with people who squash us or tell us not to shine so brightly. It is very important that our environment be fertile, fresh, and good for us in order for us to grow.
We are delicate creatures, and our heart will tell us what feels right for us. Our hearts are just like the soil, we must make it ready to receive the good that is ours by birthrights. And to live with an open heart is to live free, to live consciously, and to live by choice.
"Prepare your mind to receive the best that life has to offer." -- Ernest Holmes
There is an energy that is at the core of all of us. It is a longing, a calling, an urging for us to grow and become and flower into our very best selves. To answer this call, we must be diligent with our thoughts, actions, and words. We must catch ourselves when we start to think lack. By saying to ourselves, "there is enough, I am enough, and all is well," we unlock the magic of the universe. When we are in tension and doubt, it is as if we are stepping on a hose and stopping the flow of good.
Let's encourage each other to see the good, speak the good, and know the good. Let's make a choice to lift each other up, sing each other's praises, and find the good in each situation. It is a practice, and it is sure to cause great blooming in your life!
And now, enjoy this song of mine, "Sawyer's Song," written for my amazing nephew. It is all about shining your light, and remembering who you are.
You are a child of the Universe!
