With devotion at the center of your awareness, you don't have to refer to your past in order to make a choice of how to respond or react in any given situation.
While your past can inform you and your future can inspire you, the moment of choice exists in the here and now.
If we want a new future that does not look like our past, we must make new choices in the present.
I have a choice: Do I want to align with the GREATEST VISION OF MYSELF or Do I want to align with my EXCUSES?
Many of us don’t realize that we have a choice about which aspect of ourselves we will use as the foundation upon which we build our lives.
We are all stronger than we can ever imagine being. Every choice matters starting with today. And today, I choose to live.
Loving yourself means making choices that allow you to care for the important person that you are.
Every important choice we make is being guided by one of two places: either it is an act of faith or it is an act of fear. Faith opens the door to a new future.
When you are committed to living a life in service to the most high, the choices to be great, to serve and be served, to love and be loved are apparent.
We have to choose faith even if we don't feel it. Or hold on to a friend who has faith.
When you fail to tell the truth, you are kept bound to the past in ways that devastate your soul.
When you know in your bones that your body is a sacred gift, you move in the world with an effortless grace. Gratitude and humility rise up spontaneously.
What I would say to anybody facing any life challenge or disease is that that is courage - to choose life, to keep looking at what's good.
Throughout your life, you've been influenced by what you have done in the past, what you have been told you can and cannot do, and what your present circumstances seem to dictate.
