What Are You Saying?

Affirmations:
I forgive all misperceptions, mind and others/
I choose to be conscious of my loving intention.
I pray all I say and do be used for Good.
I trust all things, even mistakes, can work together for Good.

Watch What You Say!

Words are interpreted by those listening.
Words are heard through the filters in the mind.
Words can be received with love or with fear.
Words can be hear both cloudy and clear

When you speak, speak with intention.
When you share, share with love.
When you help, help with respect.
When you give, give with gratitude.

Often people are saying only what the listener wants to hear.
Some people speak to receive approval and appreciation.
Others say what they need to hear for themselves.
Some simply talk to fill the silence.

Pay attention to the setting, private or public.
Listen for the language of the listener.
Attune to your intention to connect or disconnect.
Recognize the emotional state and language of the receiver.

Many other components of speech are done intuitively.
Often people don’t even notice who they are talking to.
If there is an agenda or intention for the communication, it may not be heard.
Often there are inappropriate times or ways of speaking with others.

Some notice body language and others tone of voice.
Some receive the message through facial expressions.
Some actually connect and believe every word.
In communication, there is no way to control what the other receives.

Communication is a fine art.
Communication is complex and often inadequate.
What we perceive is what we believe.
What we hear it translated by our past experience.

It is valuable to know our intention before we speak.
It is helpful to have some knowledge of the other.
It is useful to be clear about the desired outcome for the words spoken.
It is healthy to clarify what was actually heard by the receiver.

Some key questions for each communication:
What is the intention of this conversation, phone call or text?
What do I want to other to receive from me?
How do I want the outcome to be?
Do I need to listen first or share first?
Is this communication for a specific purpose?
Do I want to be helpful or demanding, positive or negative?
Do I just want to dump my own toxic material and hope for the best?
Am I here to bring calm or disturbance?
Do I want to share love or fear?

Stop before you speak and ask, “What is my desired outcome?”
When you make a mistake, it is always helpful to apologize, forgive your error and learn what is better.
Let’s respect and appreciate each communication and the words we use!

Thanks for caring,
Betty Lue 

Goodness

Affirmations:
I choose to give and receive all Good and only Good.
I remember only what is good and whole and beautiful.
I trust in the Good in all things.
I easily forgive and erase everything that is not for the Highest Good of All.

Trust in Goodness!

Remember the days when we trusted in Good.
Remember when we lived free as children.
Remember when we only knew peace.
Remember the time we knew everything would be OK.

The thoughts we hold in mind will be made manifest.
The truths we trust are true will always be our truths.
The places we go with gratitude for being will be there for us.
The way we think creates what is our experience.

When we question, we see what is questionable.
When we doubt, we will perceive what we do not trust.
When we fear, we gather evidence of what we fear.
When we feel weak, we look for our weaknesses and find them.

It is true that what we seek, we find.
It is not true that we are not responsible for what we find.
What we seek becomes our chosen reality, because we seek it.
When we are willing to relinquish what we do not want, we will no longer find it.

How can it be that we shape our reality?
1)   We see it because we look for it.
2)   We find it because we need to be right.
3)   We make it appear because we create it.
4)   We amplify it with our energy.
5)   We attract others’ energy to make it so.
6)   We conceive and believe until we achieve.

When we remember only Good, we live with Goodness.
When we appreciate only Good, we expand the Good.
When we forgive what is not Good, we erase all that is not Good.
When we recognize the intrinsic Good, we celebrate and encourage Good.

Is it not time to let go of fearful images?
Is it not time to extinguish attack thoughts?
Is it not time to undo false truths?
Is it not time to stop laying weak and small?

Let us choose to seek and find only Good.
Let us forgive our fear and see what is clearly Good.
Let us choose to tell the Highest Truths.
Let us stop being victims of our own imagined powerlessness.

We can choose to give and receive only what is Good, Whole and Beautiful for one and all.
Now is our time!
Trusting in our innate Good,
Betty Lue

Support You!

Affirmations:
I support myself with Gratitude, Freedom and Trust.
What is best for me is best for others.
I support myself so I can fully and freely support others.
I trust myself to be, do and have the best support I know.

How Do You Support Yourself?

Do you support yourself everyday?
Do you take care of your basic needs?
Do you encourage and reassure yourself/
Do you consciously always do what is good for you?

Sometimes you neglect yourself and don’t understand why you feel neglected.
Sometimes you criticize yourself and don’t understand why others criticize you.
Sometimes you deny yourself and don’t understand why others deny you.
Sometimes you do not like or love you and are upset because you don’t feel loved.

First support yourself.
Whatever you believe you are missing, give it to yourself..
Whatever you feel is lacking in your life, make time to create more.
What you long to experience, sis what you need to offer.
What you criticize and complain about is yours to forgive and do better.

If you want support, give support.
If you want thanks, give thanks.
If you want encouragement, give encouragement.
If you want love and appreciation, give love and appreciation.

What we seek is what we believe is lacking in our world.
If you see a need fill it.
If you believe something is missing, it is yours to fill.
What you see is what you believe.

When you change your mind, your life changes.
When you give what is yours to give, you receive the gift.
When you appreciate what is unnoticed, you will fill the void.
When you are faithful to what is important to you, you will experience trust.

Life shows us our part with every criticism and unmet need.
Life gives us a grand view of what we can do, because we see it.
Life allows us to feel what is important to us with unhappy emotions.
Our only mistake is that we leave it up to others.

We are responsible for being our own primary support team.
We are here to change our thoughts, words and interaction with others.
We are called to support rather than take things for granted.
We are assigned our part with the unmet needs we recognize.

When we support what we see is needed, we begin to believe we can make the change.
When we know that we are not alone, we start to feel there is a way to support one another.
When we take impeccable care of our mind, our body and Spirit, we see what is possible.
When we are inspired to give ourselves the best, we can give our best to others.

What is best for you is best for others.
Now is the time to give our support to one and all, including ourselves.

Supporting myself with the highest and best thoughts, words and activities I know.
Thank you for supporting you with the Best you know.
Betty Lue
