Preferences

I prefer peace to conflict and confusion.
I prefer love to hate, fear and blame.
I prefer joy to sorrow, guilt and grief.
I prefer gratitude to regret, resentment and greed.

What we prefer guides our life choices when we are willing to choose consciously.
When we allow unhealthy habits, unconscious beliefs and negative emotions to lead, we are victims. 
To be victimized or led by what is senseless, useless and ineffective seems ludicrous and foolish.
We are all called to choose, to prioritize, to clarify and commit to what we prefer.

“I am not my body.  I have a body to be used for Love.
I am not my mind. I have a mind to be used for choosing Loving ways.
I am not my emotions.  I have emotions to be used to express Love and gratitude.
I am Spirit, Creative Essence, Pure Beingness, and Love Itself.
I am here to know, feel and behave expressing and extending only Love”

I have chosen to remember Love.
I prefer the experience of remembering to Love.
I prefer the results of remembering to Love.
I prefer to hold the thoughts, feelings and actions of remembering to Love.

When I remember to Love no matter what, I experience wholeness, wellness and feel healthy.
When I remember to Love no matter what, I know my Holiness, my connection with Source.
When I remember to Love no matter what, I feel happy, grateful and fulfilled.
When I remember to Love no matter what, my life works better in every way.

Our lives are grand experiments with every choice yielding an outcome or result of that choice.
When we are honest with our choices and the results, we can see and feel what is right and helpful.
When we deceive ourselves and believe the lies of history, well-meaning advisors, we lose our way.
Common sense shows us that Real Love works and Fear gets us stuck in pain and problems.
What does it take for me to shake off the false and choose what is true?
It requires that I “know” what is true.
It requires that I explore my options.
It requires that I choose what I prefer.

Emotions distort what I know and believe and think.
Thoughts usually judge mistakes, creating fear of error.
Outside advice projects its own preferences.
Only with deep soul-searching and listening within can I know what I prefer and what I choose.
  • This is your life.
  • Find your own truth.
  • Choose what you prefer.
  • When it does not work, choose again.
  • When it does work, celebrate and enjoy your choices.
Loving you,  
Betty Lue
