Love, Learn and Let Go

We never know what tomorrow will bring.  
It is essential that we live our best today and everyday.  
What we learn today will always be useful tomorrow.
Whom we love with kindness and respect today will bless both of us forever.

Love, Learn and Let Go


These three qualities create the Freedom to be.
When we live our lives with a focus solely on what matters to us, we are free to choose for what is Good.
When we give ourselves to what is Good for us, we are blessing others with the freedom to choose.
When we accept each person’s call to love, learn and let go as they choose, we affirm their right to Live.

What would it take to let go of past regrets and future anxieties?
What is needed to undo the beliefs that are not true?
How can we be convinced that remembering the past recreates itself in the future?
How can we learn that to build something new, we must let go of the old?

We learn and benefit from everything where we do not condemn.
We are blessed with the love that comes from every encounter, when we judge nothing.
We profit from all mistakes, and so-called failures when we do not let our thoughts condemn us.
We only become cautious, self-doubting and self-punishing when we judge what we have done.

It is imperative that we realize each moment is a creation of now.
It is essential that we focus on today and let the tomorrows be what comes after.
It is true that last year’s news have no validity in today’s perceptions.
It is helpful to realize the innocent ones living for today have the most joy and gratitude for what is.

The gifts that are received are valued fully with no comparison. 
The encounters we have with others mean most when we are fully present.
The stories told are most potent when we listen with full awareness to the experience of the teller.
Our lives our richer when we cherish each moment as the gift of Spirit today….just for us.

Many try to make tomorrow better than yesterday and in the effort lost sight of today.
Some learn to remember the past so they can avoid future mistakes and problems.
Others are filled with anxieties and regrets that cloud the present wonder and goodness in now.
And life’s riches seem to miss our recognition, when we are still in the past or already in the future.

What will it take for you and I to love, enjoy, trust and fully receive today?
How can we receive all the lessons and blessings of today, when we are busy defending against the past?
How do we let go of what no longer is, recognizing that in reality only the blessings are real and lasting?
What can we do to make now the precious present it is and to realize the Gift We Are One to Another?

Look at right now.
Listen to the voice of Love within you.
Honor your opportunity to Love, beginning with yourself.
Use this time to breathe deep and fully receive the miracle of Now.

Loving you and me right now!!
