We Are All Eternal

Detach yourself from the notion of death as loss. We are all eternal, and death is merely slipping through to another dimension. You are so enamored of the physical form, that you believe the loss of the physical form is paramount, but from our perspective it is the merest trifle. You ask one another to live forever, so that you might also live forever. Well, you are already living forever. Yes, you will miss the physical manifestation of your loved one. Yes, you will miss the voice, the body. When you find yourself missing his form, just turn your attention to his soul. What did she give you in life? How did she touch you? Her words and attentions and love are still with you. Just listen.

Energy Begets Energy

Most of the time you are happy with the status quo. That's fine -- a good thing. We're always talking about acceptance, right? However, there is nothing in the concept of acceptance that means complacency. Action must be taken in order to get what you want in life. Announce to the universe with your positive movement that you are ready for your desired change and the universe will find many ways to support you. "I want this and this is what I'm prepared to do toward that goal." Energy begets energy.

Born Into Eternity

Believe in yourself utterly. Believe that you can accomplish what you most want in life. Believe that you are a beautiful, and wise, and loving person. Believe that you have the universe at your fingertips. Believe that when you die,nothing is lost but the physical form you are now inhabiting. Believe that the path to happiness is in disassociating yourself from that physical form and recognizing your true nature. You do not have to die physically to be born into eternity.

YES!

Yes, infuse everything you do with joy. Yes, bring your full attention to what you are currently doing, however mundane and routine. Yes, open up to the beauty of the universe, and of your fellow creatures. Yes, try it and see! Yes, take a chance! Yes, LIVE!

Enjoy Everything

Has it ever occurred to you that you rely too much on money for pleasure? Take pleasure from things that cost money, by all means, but that is not the only resource you have. Pleasure is the easiest thing in the world to gain. Breathing is pleasurable. Sex is pleasurable. Eating is pleasurable. Walking is pleasurable. Sleeping is pleasurable. Talking is pleasurable. Laughing is pleasurable. Dreaming is pleasurable. Remembering is pleasurable. Working is pleasurable. Even crying can be pleasurable. Enjoy everything.

Laugh at Yourself

Laugh at yourself. The human condition is laughable. You are all struggling and striving and you have forgotten so much that you know when you are here with us. It's good to throw up your hands and surrender and just laugh. "Oh, well." Do the best you can, honor your mistakes as opportunities to learn, and move on to the next good thing. Relax. Everything's a little bit funny and a little bit sad. Life is what it is.

Just Celebrate

Just celebrate. There's always something to celebrate. If you look around, your eye will alight on something of beauty, something funny, something endearing. Allow your heart to celebrate. Be proud of your accomplishments, however small. Be proud of the kind word to a stranger. Be grateful for a blue sky or refreshing rain. Sing Sing Sing.
