It feels good to wake up and walk out here and see everybody happy, nothing in controversy, the sun shining, a happy day. That is because I am only looking at what is directly in front of me. I’m not looking at the news or at anyone else’s business. I’m looking at the people and situations that I can reach out and touch with my hand because they are physically in front of me. That is my work to do, to find harmony with whatever is right in front of me. I don’t need to look overseas for controversy, I don’t need to look at a local news channel, that’s just inviting a bunch of stuff into my life that isn’t there for me to do. And what is directly in front of me is happy and peaceful flowing smoothly.

Your worst day is a blessing in disguise. Don’t take score too soon. Expect wonderful good to come of it. Everything without exception is either a blessing or a blessing in disguise. Expect it. Eagerly anticipate it. That’s how you attract a blessing out of a disaster.

Don’t you love/hate it when you get a chance to practice faith and trust and what you know about law of attraction? A friend and spiritual teacher writes: “Beyond frustrated. Everything current and future life—work & class files, all emails, passwords, new job sites, rental places… All wiped clean. Like they never existed. Not in a cloud. Not on a server. Poof like my life for the last 6 months never happened. The feeling of helplessness & frustration is real.”
— I know how she feels. My website and backup files were hacked several years ago and was down for months while my brother recreated it. At first I flipped out but the fact was there were a lot of things on the old site that were no longer current or even relevant. Computer tech friends told me my website could not be restored. My brother warned me he might not be successful. I understood their concern was based on their own past experience.
— But my past experience is that things always work out for me. My past experience is that I don’t need to know the details of how something is going to work out. I just need to have faith that it will. And it somehow always miraculously does. Out of 3,977 pages I only had to redo 108 that dropped off. When it happened, I was forced to rethink who I was and what I was doing. I received valuable insights and lessons I would not have learned otherwise. It’s hard to see — when we’re in the midst of upheaval — the good and the fresh beginning that will come on the other side of it once the slate is wiped clean, whether by our choice or not.

The word prayer used to tick me off . For too many years it reminded me of the big fearful guy in the sky who stood ready to smite at the smallest transgression. It was only later I learned that was not what God was and that was not what prayer was. I didn’t use the words for many years because those words alienated me and I did not want to alienate anyone I was trying to convey processes and techniques to. Sometimes I think of prayer as asking for someone with greater knowledge and influence than I have to join with me in creating a new circumstance that I am fully aware of being able to create by faith in my own focus of thought but it helps me to imagine there is a co-Creator, an energetic Investor with far more resources than I, Who can guarantee the success. When I think of it that way it activates my internal guidance system and I get as much response as if I was sitting having coffee with you.

Remember that just because something feels familiar and comfortable doesn’t mean it’s good for you. When people go from one toxic or abusive relationship to another, for instance, it’s because that is what feels normal, it’s what feels familiar. Being able to adjust to an abnormal situation isn’t always healthy.

EVERYTHING IS GOING TO BE ALRIGHT. I’m going to take all the negativity in my life and I’m going to use it as fuel to find a silver lining. That takes work but I’m up to it and so are you.

To be great, you have to be willing to be mocked, hated and misunderstood. We undergo a crucifixion in every lifetime and our response to it balances karmic debt and determines how long we keep ourselves on the cross. It’s the same as coming to the altar to pray, expecting to receive fully, when we’ve not first forgiven everyone and everything. The initiation is in being mocked, hated and misunderstood. We run the gauntlet of the initiation by how we respond and react. The honor and blessing of it is being given an opportunity to resolve the past, do things differently and make a clean start. It’s a holy endeavor.

Whether you love me forever is irrelevant. What is relevant is that, while you love me, you love me fully. We don’t regret our past, we don’t anticipate a future. We enjoy each holy, sacred moment we’ve got right Now and we stay flexible enough to ever-morph into more of what our work together is to be. Who’s to say whether that’s 24 more hours or 24 more years? All that matters to me is that in the Now, I feel happy, I feel content, I feel I am doing meaningful work, I feel that I love and am loved, I am having fun, I feel emotionally supported. At some point, I learned it’s irrelevant whether that love comes from a particular person or not, and learned the duration had zero to do with it. The intensity of the connectedness and fun-ness in the Now is everything. Everything.
