Drink deeply from this life! Do not sit complacently, waiting for change to happen to you. Seek out change, even if it is a change in attitude or environment. Be mindful, meditate for five minutes, buy a new plant, decrease clutter, increase peaceful space. Awaken to the moment you are in and live expectantly for the next miracle to occur. Know that your purpose is to grow through this physical experience and to keep in awareness that you are an essential spirit. Follow your passion and discover your joy.

Spend the day saying and thinking only positive words and ideas. Do not say or think anything negative about what you are doing or what anyone else is doing. If you find yourself in a moment of negative speech or thought, change it immediately into a positive one. I can, rather than I can’t. I will, rather than I won’t. I love, rather than I hate. I forgive, rather than I condemn. When we live in positive mindfulness, we create the world in which we wish to live. Namaste! https://www.tobiehewitt.com/contact.html to join my mailing list.

Not really, unless you live a life fully dedicated to doing so, but the more you live mindfully, aware of every nuance of everything you do and that is occurring around you, the more you will find the peace necessary for the growth of spirit on this plane. In mindfulness we discover we are essential spirits living the vision of the Creative Spirit. Namaste! https://www.tobiehewitt.com/contact.html to join my mailing list. (Art by Joy Argento) Sometimes synchronistic words do not possess any greater meaning or guidance than a quick wink from the Creative Spirit that you are in sync with the universe. Every moment of “coincidence” asks us to stop in that moment and pay attention to the interconnectedness of everything and everyone. We need to be reminded of these connections as we traverse this expression of life. We are never alone and we are always and forever bound together within the interdependent web.

(Art by Joy Argento) When we are complacent and accept the status quo as all that we are required to achieve, the Creative Spirit sends some sort of challenge to make sure we continue to grow. A sudden fall, a fender bender, a job loss, power outage, a natural or manmade disaster . . . just when everything is going along smoothly and we become complacent, an event will occur to nudge or rock us out of that mindset. Then, as our awareness is heightened by rising to meet the challenge, we find ourselves needing to lean into the support and healing available always through the Creative Spirit. We come out of adversity stronger than we were before, fortified through the omnipresent energy of love. Namaste! https://www.tobiehewitt.com/contact.html to join my mailing list. (Art by Joy Argento) Sometimes life can feel like a hurdle race in which the hurdles are spaced too closely for the racer to gain sure footing or catch his or her breath. It is the perception that life is a race or that there is a finish line one must reach before anyone else that adds to the feeling that every challenge or instance of change is a criticism of one’s ability to succeed. This perception can raise one’s adrenaline level—a physical response to fear—in order to rise to the highest of some artificially created definition of achievement. When a challenge occurs, we need to stop and take a deep breath and remember we are essential spirits in the interdependent web.

When we are comfortably situated in our lives, following our daily routine feeling safe and secure, any change, either large or small, can throw us from the sense that we can rely on the illusion of reality for any more than what it is—an illusion of time and space in a molecularly dense plane in which we are to learn those lessons best learned in a physical form. When a challenge occurs, it is a sign that we have acquired enough knowledge and experience to meet that challenge. Namaste! https://www.tobiehewitt.com/contact.html to join my mailing list. (Art by Joy Argento) The changing of the seasons calls us to pay attention to the world around us. As nature moves through the cycle of manifested being, we are reminded of our own physical cycle of life, from conception, to birth, through the stages of life, and then the transition back to the spirit state. When we accept that all of life is filled with changes both large and small, by our own volition or instigated by the choices of others, we can cease clinging to the rock in the river and allow ourselves to be carried within the purifying omniscient flow of the universe toward our next experience on the physical plane. When we accept change with a sense of peace and gratitude, we open ourselves to that which is the vision of the Creative Spirit.

(Art by Joy Argento) When we nurture ourselves and others, showering compassion and kindness on all who walk the Earth and even those on the other side of the veil, we fulfill the vision of the Creative Spirit to love that being by loving each other. To tend to the needs of our neighbor or the stranger on the other side of the planet, either physically or through the power of prayer and the sending of focused intent, we become co-creators in the world around us. When we direct kindness inward, we can begin to realize and animate our potential. All beings are nurtured by the power of compassion, kindness, and love.

Nothing is as powerful and nothing has as much potential to change the paradigm that we accept as reality. Love heals, sustains, informs, gives comfort and joy, bolsters confidence and strength, and fills us with the effervescent power to celebrate our being through both stillness and action. It is through the energy of love that we embrace the world and allow it to embrace us. In the beginning, the Creative Spirit breathed the All into being through and in the energy of love.
