(I missed sending out Loving Reminders yesterday, because we leave our Lake House at 6AM to get to our Unity church by 8:30AM.) I know you all hear from me enough to tide you over, but I actually miss sharing with you and me in this way!)
What will make you content?
Are you willing to be at peace with what you have and do?
Are you content with who you are?
Are you content with what is in your world?
Isn’t it interesting how we need discontent to motivate us to improve?
Do we have to be upset or unhappy to make positive changes in our lives?
Can we simply choose to live in the ways that are for the highest good?
Can our life be based on living in integrity our awareness of our inner calling?
When you are upset, or discontent, is it not because you have gone off course?
Is it not because you have conflicting goals?
Is it not because you have lost your way?
When we step out of integrity with our own truth, we are distracted, detoured and delayed.
To be at peace is to be aware without judging.
To be content is to experience without comparing.
To be happy is to enjoy what is without criticism.
To experience fulfillment is to realize we already are, have and do what we want.
When we judge we get stuck in complaining, comparing, emoting, trying and fixing.
When we are stuck in doing the same ole thing again and yet again, we kill our motivation to change.
When we set aside judgment, we can address the guilt and fear that keep us from moving forward.
When we forgive the guilt and fear for staying to long, and being so unhappy, we can choose again.
Many excuse their choices to stay in unhealthy conditions and relationships.
Many fear taking responsibility to step away and choose a better way.
Many seek vengeance against those they blame and make them guilty with constant attack.
Many simply are too entrenched in their own complaining, whining and self pity to stop.
Many paths to contentment are given us.
Change what is not working to what works, without making anyone wrong.
Be grateful all day everyday for what you have rather than focus on what you don’t have.
Forgive and erase all the apparent emotional and physical obstacles in your way.
Step away from habitual behaviors of that keep you stuck in endless emoting.
Use the energy of your discontent to make new choices.
Acknowledge full responsibility in being where you are not happy.
Forgive your fear and choose again for what is right and true for you.
What is best for you is best for others.
Please yourself and you will be a pleasure for others.
Honor your choices with your contentment and gratitude.
Give to others the peace you want to have and appreciate yourself.
Blessings of peace, contentment and Love to all of us,
Betty Lue
