I needed to read this message again.
This came to me as this painting
came to being, and today I
share it here with you.
This is a much shorter version
of the whole message,
but the part that I
needed for today's work.
I hope you enjoy.
***
With but a shift in perception,
what you thought was miles or lifetimes
away may be but feet and moments
away or already right in your arms.
Words are the least part of communication;
energy and action speak far more truly.
You do not need to import greatness from another;
you just need to act on your own.
You already know.
You always have enough energy to do the things you love.
You always have enough time to do the things
that Spirit would have you do.
You are doing better than you think you are.
You are in integrity when the life you are living
on the outside matches who you are on the inside.
You are lovable not for what you do.
You are lovable for who you are.
You are not desperate, so don't act as if you are.
You believe that if you had more time,
you would have more peace.
It's the other way around:
if you had more peace, you would have more time.
Creating more time is not logistical, but attitudinal.
You can tell what you believe by what you get.
You can afford to be generous because
you have access to an unlimited supply.
You can be helping many people,
but if you are not helping yourself,
you have missed the one person
you were born to heal.
You can never love too much.
True loving only multiplies itself
and returns to bless us many times over.
You can't get a right brain answer to a left brain question.
Ask your heart, not your mind.
You can't get to heaven by putting other people through hell.
You can't prepare to be great, because you already are.
You can't worry love.
You cannot achieve perfection.
You can only discover it.
You cannot fix yourself because you are not broken.
The more you try to fix, the more you find to fix.
Only wholeness heals.
You cannot gain worth by achievement.
You can only claim it by self-recognition.
You deserve only love because you are only love.
You do not need to gain or import powers,
for you were born with infinite power to create.
You simply need to claim
and use the power you already own.
You don't always need to know beforehand.
You don't have to make anything happen.
Just line up with what wants to happen and let it.
You don't have to make someone
else wrong for you to be right.
You don't need to beg for what you already deserve.
You don't need to get anyone else
to agree with your truth.
You just need to live it.
You don't need to make good things happen.
You just need to let good things happen.
You don't need to punish yourself for love.
Or sex.
Or money.
Or your past.
Or anything.
You have more options than you recognize.
You know where you belong.
Your good flows to you most easily when you are
relaxed, open, and trusting.
You only live once but it's forever.
You own what you own not by money or force,
but by your love for it and your inner connection to it.
You were born a genius, and you still are.
Claim it and it will work wonders for you and the world.
You were born to enjoy your life, not repair it.
You will be paid for your services in
proportion to the depth of your passions for them.
You will find truth more quickly
through delight than gravity.
Let out a little more string on your kite.
You will help more people through your
delight than through your suffering.
You will not get rid of your pain by glamorizing it.
You will not solve lack by getting more.
You will solve lack by recognizing abundance
where you once saw lack.
You're not a realist unless you believe in miracles.
Your attention is the strongest currency at your disposal.
Whatever you invest it in will yield significant returns.
Your core being is your pure being.
Your entire world could open up with one expansive thought.
Your fears of oblivion are unfounded.
Your first and greatest contribution
to world peace is your own.
Your future isn't what it used to be.
Your gift to the world is not what you do.
Your gift is your happiness.
Your history is not your destiny.
Your inability to adapt is not a sign of your weakness,
but the strength of your inner guidance
to remind you where your passion lives.
Your issues do not retard forward movement;
they propel it.
Your journey of relationship is an
adventure to reunite with yourself.
Your thoughts do not create reality,
but they do create your experience.
Your thoughts do not create reality.
They either permit it or not.
Your true power lives
in acting with a whole heart.
***
Let it be.
Have a great day everyone,
Heather
