A desktop or laptop can connect us instantly to vast knowledge sources. A computer can link us to the news, stock reports, airline bookings, shopping, medical breakthroughs, and information in almost every other sphere of knowledge.

The information connectedness that we experience with computers is a small sample of the potent connections we can make with our empowered soul. The empowered soul experiences universal connection with all beings. Becoming aware of this unifying force can help us realize our essential unity. Walls of division separate people.

Maintaining harmony under all circumstances is the key to navigating through life. By remaining calm and composed in each moment, we keep life in perspective. We are able to connect with the bigger picture of potential while sorting out appropriate courses of action to address any situation before us.

Life is a gift we’re given

each and every day.

Dream about tomorrow,

but live for today.

If only I had the words to tell you the love I hold you in, but there are no words to express the love I have for you. There are simply no words for love. Love is far beyond words. There is no word to match the power and energy of love. All words fall short.

When you feel the urge to be critical of someone else, look first within yourself. The weaknesses and shortcomings you perceive in another may very well be pointing to improvements you can make in your own life.

Everyone comes into life with a purpose. You are a unique expression of the universal life force at the foundation of your being. Spirit guides you from the moment your life begins, and the people and events of your life reflect your soul’s journey. No one else ever has or will affect the world as you do. With every act, word or thought, you are adding to All-That-Is.

I am well aware of your tendency to want to figure things out. Your logical mind loves to pounce on ideas and turn them into concrete evidence. The mind uses the information it already has and often looks to find flaws, whereas, when the heart knows, it just knows. Take love, for instance.

You hear people say this all the time: “I have a right to be upset because of the way I’ve been treated. I have a right to be angry, hurt, depressed, sad, and resentful.” Learning to avoid this kind of thinking is one of my secrets for living a life of inner peace, success, and happiness. Anytime you’re filled with resentment, you’re turning the controls of your emotional life over to others to manipulate.

Love flows. Love flows like a great unending river, and even if you cannot feel it at all times, so is it there, endlessly flowing, endlessly supporting you, holding you aloft.

Do you really believe that you can carry the world on your shoulders? Yes, it is true that you are responsible for everyone and everything, but, beloveds, think a minute.
