           AwakeningWhy wait for your awakening?Do you value your reasons for staying smallmore than the light shining through the open door?Forgive yourself,Forgive yourself.Now is the only time you have to be whole.Now.Now is the sole moment that exists to live in the light of your true naturePerfection is not a prerequisite for anything but pain.Perfection is not a prerequisite for anything but pain.Please, oh please, don’t continue to believein your stories of deficiency and failure.This is the day of your awakening.Poem by Danna FauldsREFLECTION:Do you continue to believe in your stories of deficiency and failure?Can you forgive yourself?We are about to start a new year... you have a chance at a NEW BEGINNING!THIS IS THE DAY OF YOUR AWAKENING!

SELF-OBSERVATION WITHOUT JUDGMENTRelease the harsh and pointed innervoice. it’s just a throwback to the past,and holds no truth about this moment.Let go of self-judgment, the old,learned ways of beating yourself upfor each imagined inadequacy.Allow the dialogue within the mindto grow friendlier, and quiet. Shiftout of inner criticism and lifesuddenly looks very different.i can say this only because I makethe choice a hundred times a day to release the voice that refuses toacknowledge the real me.What’s needed here isn’t more prodding toward perfection, butintimacy – seeing clearly, andembracing what I see.Love, not judgment, sows theseeds of tranquility and change. Poem by Danna FauldsREFLECTION:I believe many of us (especially me) have a harsh inner critic.Do you prod yourself toward perfection and allow that inner critic to be the only voice you hear?What if you could shift to a quieter more friendly voice?  How would that change you and your way of being in the world?Today, allow LOVE ... non judgment( silence the inner critic)  to sow the seeds of change and peace.
