Ah! You’re so cool! You’ve got options everywhere! If your love doesn’t like ya, another one will! They’re lining up! It’s just a simple paradigm of how you set your mind, to channel your love. It’s gushing through your pipes, and you can decide which spigots to turn! Which containers to fill! Because you’ve got so much to give. If it’s your mind that limits, you clear the thoughts and start anew! Life is beginning new! All over the place. It’s that feeling of release when you clear the board game, and choose a new piece. It’s that story of a girl who has her heart set on a guy, all while a hundred wonderful people are just dying to catch her eye! And if you’re watching it like a movie, you want to beckon to the screen: “What are you doin’, girl? Look at all those fish in the sea!” It’s easy to say when looking from the outside in. And yet maybe somebody wants to say that to you. Something like, You’ve got it all set up in your mind how it should be, when your heart simply wants to pump. You’ve set up these barriers in your head that clog up the love that wants to spread. When guess what? You can be borne anew! As easy as that! It’s what your soul wants to do! So you get cut down. It’s like Campbell said: Suppose the grass is growing and every week it sees the lawn mower guy coming, and it throws up its hands – well, blades in this case – and futilely utters, “Oh, what’s the use!” Nope! It still grows! It’s what it’s made to do! And perhaps so it is with you. Your heart obeys the roads you decide in your mind. And if it reaches a dead end, it’s up to your mind to reset the routes. When anywhere will do! If your heart is aching, then that’s a clue. It’s time to take a deep breath, look in the mirror at who you are, and see what you can be! A new year is almost here! A new decade, actually! And the sky is the limit! Even beyond the sky, truthfully! And maybe you say, “Oh! This is a fun game! What if I *were* to pretend some other person I respected took over my mind’s reins?” As if there were a new sheriff in town. And she says to you, “Look at all these limiting thoughts and plans of yours! Don’t you realize there’s *so* much more you can do?” And be! With so many, successfully! And things that might have never occurred to you! Because you didn’t even let your mind go there. Like my hound digging a hole! There could be something so much more attractive on the other side of the lawn, but, nope, it’s there he’s going to dig, even if he doesn’t retrieve a proverbial bone. You have something so unique about you. And you’re so treasured and adored. Perhaps if you don’t feel it, it’s due to your thoughts and your goals. All set up for so long over time, they are like walled gardens, and you can’t see over the other side. So you cut them down! Don’t worry, the grass will still grow! And you don’t need a bulldozer. All it takes is a deep breath, and another makes two. And you say, “I’m going to take a step away from the table, if only for a moment, and reassess. Everything!” Because there is *so* much you can do! You can film a video today and put it on YouTube! You can study some subject you never dreamed would ever appeal to you. You can change up your style, you can lose a little weight. You can become a professional weightlifter at the age of 88! The only thing holding you is you! Because you’ve got all this love coming through. It surely wants to! And clearing your mind, that *joy* of resetting the board after a game! It’s that feeling of new life! A birth! Anything is possible! Again! And what better time to begin! A new year is on the horizon! And you’ve been so wonderfully blessed. You feel this deep gratitude! For all you’ve been given, and for all your mistakes. Nothing really happens without them! They pave the way. To this growth in you! And when you’ve learned what you need to know, it’s more than okay to start over again. Because you’re so wonderfully loved. Sometimes it’s hard to see with blinders on. Those blinders are thoughts and decisions that become paths in your mind. Ingrained in the sand. And sometimes you might forget you can step away from it all, and daydream again! Imagine all that’s possible. Oh, if you simply allow it in! Your soul will point a way! You’ve got so much living to do today. And with a clearing of the chess pieces – that joy of resetting the board! – this fresh feeling of a new beginning is felt all over you. And all that love that seemed missing, you soon discover it’s everywhere. As the song says, if you can’t be with the one you love, love the one you’re with. Or the one who wants in, while you’ve been stuck in your traffic of the mind. And maybe it’s right around the corner! You’ll only know if you’re moving. All my thoughts block the love my heart wants to send. Perhaps today I’ll clear my thoughts away, and see where my heart wants to send it. And your heart says, “Wow!! Look at this!! I’ve been stuck in all this traffic, adhering to this strict road. And she’s gone and knocked ‘em all down! It’s clear viewing as far as the eye can see! Well, now I needn’t even choose a road per se! I can send my love everywhere today!” And your soul loves the idea! Because in doing so, something divine might be revealed to you! And something miraculous can occur! Because you’re more wonderful than you even know! You’re cool and you’re unflappable! You are radiance and style! Your beauty goes on for miles! And now it’s an open road. The hurts of the past you can laugh off with some ease! You don’t take yourself overly seriously. Everyone is carrying their baggage. It all comes from there. And now you feel sympathy. Empathy! Because into a new year you’re traveling light! Nothing is holding you down. You’ve got the sun above you, and your feet an inch above the ground. You’re floating and you’re free. Like a newborn baby. One who has forgotten a previous life. After all, it’s all energy. It’s your love. It’s your wonderful life, and it’s shining through. With your easy-going smile. Your inimitable style. There’s only one of you. And today that ‘one’ is new. And, you’re loved. Totally and completely, and through and through! Up and down, and endlessly. You’re free to love into a wild blue yonder. And when you do, you’ll find it comes back to you. Sooner or later. One way or another, love is always a part of you. It’s who you are. You’re born today. If you choose. And lucky you! Now you’ll have two birthdays to celebrate. You’re so loved. And if nobody’s said it today, you are great! So much greater than you know. Wildly so. You can be anything you wish to be. With the changing of a thought, with the clearing of the board. With a step back to reassess all your thoughts and goals. And here’s a little secret: Whatever you decide, whatever you choose to be, you’re adored either way. You are loved eternally. And deep deep inside, beyond all the thoughts and closer to the heart, you know it, too. ❤️
