Poison

For your consideration…

I should not be surprised. I know exactly when this message started coming in. It was this morning at breakfast with my friend, Julie. So when it came in in meditation, I knew exactly what the message was about. Don’t you just love how nifty and cleaver the God and the Universe are?

The question is, “Would you drink poison? Specifically, would you take arsenic on a regular basis knowing it will make you ill and/or kill you?” Of course not.

Our message today compares taking poison to letting our hearts, minds and souls be poisoned by all of the negativity floating around. Toxic people, anger, news, the media, social media etc. We are bombarded.

But we have a choice, we always have a choice. When we hear something that does not feel good, it does not feel like love and in our best interest, we can reject it. We can stop it at our ears. We do not have to let it into our soul. And that is exactly what we are asked to do. We are asked to protect our soul, our authentic self and not let it be poisoned by the hate, anger, skepticism, egotism of others.

That is the HOPE. And so it is.

Bit by bit, piece by piece, HOPE by HOPE action steps anyone can take…

-Affirm…“I am loved.”

-Meditate/pray…ask…”What is my next step for my highest good and the highest good of all?”

-Drink lots of water.

-Get outdoors and take in at least 10 deep breaths.

-Protect your authentic self and only let in what is good for it.

What made me smile yesterday…

-AJ’s soccer game. What a picture perfect day for it.

-Dinner out with family and friends.

-A good trip to the gym. So far, so good with the knee.

-A late night visit from my friend, Jul. Yeah an unplanned PJ party.

Love, Blessings and Gratitude,
