You are no small thing. Sure, in comparison to the Universe, we humans seem pretty tiny. But, the energy that gives you consciousness? It is the same energy born from the stars. That body of yours contains the same atoms and elements that make up planets, just in a different arrangement. So, don’t ever let yourself feel like a small thing when you are created with the same majesty as an entire galaxy.

A volcano may appear dormant for decades, even centuries, but the underlying pressure remains. When anger roils beneath the surface for too long, it becomes like magma far beneath the earth’s core, building with nowhere to go. Silence and denial may prolong the explosion, but really just worsens it when it finally blows. Cry it out. Punch that pillow. As long as you don’t unpack and live there, you can get some relief and go right on back to nourishing your soul.

Forgiving someone who’s hurt you can be a great challenge. You don’t have to forget, but you shouldn’t be afraid to forgive. You are an amazing soul who deserves better than to be bogged down by negative emotions toward others, so forgiveness is more for your health and happiness than it is for the person you’re forgiving. You and your beautiful spirit will be happier and healthier if you choose to embrace forgiveness.

Success goes hand in hand with mistakes. If you don’t break it a few times, you can’t make it! So, lighten up a bit on yourself when you have an “ooops” moment. Without a few now and then, you wouldn’t learn and grow.

Lost? Even the moth chasing moonlight sometimes gets sidetracked by the flame. If you take your eyes off the prize and get distracted, adjust your course. You, too, can reach your ultimate destination.

During chilly, gusty days, some birds huddle in the trees while others dance through the wind.

At some point, everyone’s inner fire dims, but that doesn’t mean it’s gone out. It could simply be time for a break — and potentially an adjustment of intentions. Listen to what pulls you, and you will come across someone or something that will re-ignite that fire and passion bigger than ever before.

Hanging on to resentment is like wandering through perpetual twilight. It doesn’t harm the person you resent, it only weighs on your own spirit. Forgiveness doesn’t mean forgetting, or allowing them to hurt you again. Gaining peace isn’t for them; it’s for you. You owe it to yourself to let go, watch for daybreak, and let yourself step into the healing light.

If doubt was a bitter cold, fear would be its tempest. When the clouds seem to have darkened the sky, and a storm might stand between you and the unknown, it can only freeze you if you stop moving forward. Keep going, keep moving. Each step you take will calm the storm and warm your soul.

Love creates beauty. Love. Create. You are beautiful.

Every argument begins as a spark over kindling, and only angry energy can feed it into a flame. Why waste your fuel on someone else’s fire?

Change can be the either barrier or the overlook. Allow yourself pause, but trust in yourself. Some choices lead to rockier climbs than others, but they can also lead to unexpected vistas. The path can be even more exciting than it looks. Keep on climbing!
