Rejoice in the feelings of love reawakened

A man calling himself Mr. Tone asks about his reconnecting with an old flame from 28 years ago. He says he finds himself thinking of her every minute and she feels the same, but unfortunately she is married. He asks, " I'm just wondering if we would ever be together; she wants to be with me and she has stated so."

And you want me to foretell the future? Rejoice in the feelings of love. It is awakened within you my dear one. Something that you felt not possible. It is a youthful, exciting, amazing thing. As to whether you will be together, that is yet to be seen. There are many choices that need to be made. Each individual, not just her but you as well.

There will be many changes you must choose if you were to do this and she as well. I cannot tell you what you will do, for that is up to you. It is your responsibility for your choice. But there is never anything wrong with love. There are many actions that can be somewhat destructive and in many ways chaotic. Choose what you need to do for your being, blessed one, and rejoice in being awoken, alive.

It is interesting in the physical form how you want to have a time limit on things. Yet, in the very moment, in the height of love are the highest in that moment. What you believe and think and dream of, is never quite what is in the moment of it. Enjoy it, be in it. Love is an amazing energy especially this form of love.

I think I hear you saying that we are often are thinking more about how we can make this stay, how we can make it happen in the future, how we can manage things instead of experiencing the bliss of the moment.

Yes, I do understand the time element of the physical world. But too much is under control issues instead of receiving the great gift that you have received and that part of this being was closed down and is now awakened. And in truth, part of him feels that he is that youthful being again. What a grand gift.

Emotional eating

Andrea has asked a question about emotional eating. She says, "I have been struggling with compulsive overeating for about the past 10 years, but much more severely in the past 5 years. When I am in a place where I am overeating, it is like it consumes my whole life and my whole being, and I am not mentally strong enough to come out of it on my own. When I am not in a time of overeating, I then wonder how I ever let it consume my life. It is very hard, because it can come and go so easily. I know that it is linked with emotions and mental state, but that knowledge doesn't seem to be enough to keep me from sabotaging my own happiness. I am so ready to move forward and away from this, it just seems so impossible to overcome. Any kind of insight would be so greatly appreciated."

This blessed being is so, so loving, so gentle; never wanting to disturb, or harm, or cause any chaos for anyone. But for her own being internally there is a great amount of chaos. Eating, an imbalance of the eating process must be seen in its wholeness as a need to be nourished. It is instinctive when a young child to be nourished when communicating pain, or discomfort. So it is not unusual that the part of the very primitive brain of this one when very uncomfortable wants to be nourished. And in truth, she must nourish her body with good amounts of food that are not out of balance. But sometimes when she eats, she is in total frenzy inside.

It is most important for her to learn to calm that inner voice, to find a place of peace and tranquility. But it is not through food. It is not through need of control. It is a matter of finding love for her own being, time for her own being. She gives so much to others and not to herself.

Blessed one, please stop seeing it as a problem. Start seeing it as something that your body is trying to tell you. You need love. So how would you go about getting it? Putting words to it is the first way but no one knows. You tell everyone that everything is fine within you. You need to speak it out loud. You need to hear it reflected back to you that you are loved, that you are wonderful. And in time you will begin to love yourself.

Loving yourself is one of the main things about being in a body. Loving this soul, this spirit, having grace and a loving understanding of what you be. The force that moves this divine body that you created. Understand that you are a very powerful being.

And you can be that being, in all ways, in all forms, if you simply be still. Allow the radiance to shine through you. It is most often you do this when you are so busy helping others. You need to start taking much more time for yourself. Simple time, it does not need to be hours and hours. It can be as simply as lingering on a chair for a little while longer. Seeing your world, witnessing it. Seeing how important you are to it. You have created it.

It sounds as though she is feeling out of control with it, but you say it is not an issue of control. So when she is feeling out of control like that, what should she do?

Put everything down, step back and breathe deep cleaning breaths. Listen to her world around her and address only her own responsibilities. What busy times these beings live in. Much more complicated then it needs to be. Put everything down and focus.

Is there anything from her childhood that she needs to reflect upon, or is that not important?

Everything is important. But to truly move forward she needs to address what is now. It is not even possible within her conscious mind to know the exact details where it all began. But if she can still it now this will allow the door to open. Bit by bit it will be seen. She will have the ability to hear it if she gives herself some time.

Any last words for Andrea?

That she is loved. That she is beautiful. That if she could receive the love that she gives to others, she will heal herself.

Thank you.

Staying healthy at work, being in the moment

Jack asks about staying healthy at work. He wonders if shorter shifts would help his energy level.

One of your greatest problems Jack is that you simply are always two days ahead of yourself instead of in the moment. If you truly allow yourself to be in the moment that you are in you would not be nearly so tired. You would not be so fractured, you would not feel so scattered and unsure of where you are at any one moment.

You are an amazing being with great healing capacity. And simply your presence has helped so many. It has given them strength as if a light in the darkness. Do not worry so much about the time you work, but think about the time off as a great treasure at the end of it. Just have it there as something wonderful and fun to do and be mostly in your moments.

If you worry so much about the hours and your exhaustion that is what you draw to you, my dearest friend. You are of the light. You love people; you love helping. Be it—every moment of it. Even in such a simple task of wiping something off, do it with true intention, being present. It’s exhausting thinking of everything days and days ahead instead of being in the moment. You are a wise and good being. Understand that right now you are laying down the works for greater things yet to be; a time when you will be a teacher. So don’t fray your energy by being scattered. Stay centered and keep a diary.

Keep a diary?

Yes. It will help him to see what he does. It will help him to see his worth without thinking he’s all over the place. He’s a wonderful being.

So he should keep a diary to relating to work things or…?

Each day.

All right. Would that help other people too?

It helps all beings to be conscious of what they truly do. Instead of being here and thinking about what is ahead, be here and think of what you have already done. It helps you to sit still for a moment, and be in the moment, even though you’re thinking of moments that have passed. Yes it helps all beings, especially in your world where words and communication and visual aids are so important.

Thank you.

Anxiety about dental work

Suzanne has asked how to be strong and brave. She has upcoming dental work and she is very anxious about it. She asks if there are any tools that can help her cope with this.

My dear little omnipotent one--you cannot hold the world up forever. It is not yours to hold up. You must be responsible only for your own actions. And a lot of your fears come from a very early start when you felt you had to keep everyone in balance. As to fear of dental work, it’s not an uncommon thing. Anyone intruding in your private energy can cause some discord. Just trust that you would be drawn to a being who very much is capable of helping you. That this is a positive thing and that you in the long run will be healthier and stronger for it. See it as an act of wonderful wisdom on your part, for helping you. These amazing technologies that have developed in this world, you mustn’t deny them. They have great strength to enable you to fulfill that that you have come to do.

As to anxiety, face it full on. And know that there are people who are afraid to come to you, but you sooth them as this one will sooth you. Be in peace my child, be not afraid. Embrace it and be that that you are.

Thank you.

Illness as an opportunity

Mary asks about her situation. Her husband has recently been diagnosed with a pretty serious illness. She says, “Can you give me any insight as to what is going to happen to us? We’ve been through so much in our lives already.”

Dear, dear Mary, teach by being, by trusting—trusting that all will be even better. You cannot do this when it is fear that you hold for your husband instead of trust that he can do this, that he will be well and strong. And so you draw to yourself the negativity. No you didn’t create it; but you are teaching it. You must through your actions and your belief—believe. And trust that everything has a reason. You’ve known this before. You have looked upon many of the things that have happened in your life, though difficult, as opportunities to learn. And you have learned. And you are more radiant now than you ever have been. This opportunity is for the two of you to come close together, to speak from your heart one to the other, to hold and to cherish. How you have grown! How amazingly strong you are! This doesn’t have to hold you back at all. Be that that you are my child. Be that that you are.
