Life Is Good!

Affirmations:

I believe in you.

I trust in Love.

I know life is Good.

I find what I seek. 

You Better Believe It!

Life is good, when you believe it is.

Life is miraculous, if you look for miracles.

Life is our teacher, when you want to learn

Life is a reflection of our inner selves, when you are willing to look in the mirror.

When you look with wonder at the world in which you live, you will be filled with wonder.

What you wonder, you will see.

What you seek you will find.

Keep seeking the wonderful life you desire and deserve.

As a child of Love, you believe in Love.

As you give your blessings, you feel blessed.

As you are reminded of your innocence, you see the lack of love.

Our world is calling us to remember Love, to be Love, to see Love and to give Love.

When you fall into fear, you are deceived by the world of fearful thinking.

When you stand up for love, you are awakened into a life of goodness.

When you have forgotten what to see and be, always seek the Highest.

When you are remembering your truth, you will see miracles of Love.

Your power is in what you believe.

Forgive false or limiting beliefs.

Forgiveness erases what is false.

Remember what is good and whole and beautiful.

Life gives us choice in which way to go.

Our choices teach us we have free will.

We can live with Love at the core of our being.

We can forsake what is our way of Love.

When we learn from experience that we can choose, we may experiment and explore.

When we lose our right thinking, we may neglect right perception and see falsely.

When we awake and choose wisely what we really desire, we see with clarity our own Goodness.

This is the way we learn to live with forgiveness, choice and gratitude.

What we conceive and believe, we will achieve and receive.

Imagine your ideal life with your ideal relationships in an ideal world.

Believe with all your heart and mind, you can find the Goodness you desire.

Seek and you will find, create, manifest and enjoy your ideal.

Keep believing. 

We create what we wholeheartedly think and believe.

We forgive and erase what is not truly good for us.

We always find what we seek without end.

Life is our mirror and a reflection of our thoughts.

It is time to refuse what is not.

It is time to enjoy and appreciate what is our joy.

Let us be the miracle workers in our own world.

Learn and Play.

Work and Pray.

With Everyone in Every way.

Life is Good because you believe it is.

Love you, 

Betty Lue

How to begin.

Dream the impossible dream and trust it is possible.

Then look for the steps involved to get out of your own doubts, fears and uncertainty.

Begin by freeing your mind from negativity.

Forgive past “failures” which are simply learning you need.

Relinquish your regrets, guilt, criticism and blame.

They sabotage what you want most.

This is your dream and your future!

It is not for others to understand or make happen.

This is your heart’s desire waiting for you to say “YES!”

When you are open and willing, 100% giving your all, the Universe supports you fully.

Take off the brakes and give yourself a break.

No more excuses or explanations or doubts or self-deprecation.

It is your time to lift off and fly free of the shackles that bind you.

Write it out and it will be there for you when you have no doubt.

Trust and free yourself to full live your passion and purpose.

How Do You Teach Children Well?

Do you observe yourself with children?

Your children and all children deserve to be carefully taught.

Children watch adults and copy them.

Children practice the words and behaviors of adults.

Children learn the language of adults.

Children watch the manners of adults.

Children pay attention to the lifestyle of adults.

Children are imprinted by adult behavior.

Children watch TV and UTube.

They pay attention to their teachers and elders.

Children watch and listen to the parents of their friends.

Children try to do what seems to be the most accepted behavior.

Do adults learn from their children?

Do parents blame, punish, criticize and curse their kids?

Do parents see themselves in how they relate and communicate?

Instead most parents try to stop unacceptable behavior in their children.

Adults often tell their children what to do.

Adults often drink too much, swear too much and behave inappropriately.

Adults may say “Do as I say and not as I do.”

Adults may nag and shame and threaten without results.

Then children learn to tell others what to do.

They learn bullying behaviors with swearing, shaming and threatening.

Children often defy authority if they see in in adults.

Children may rebel, get even and purposely fail to upset their parents and teachers.

What is a better way?

Let the adults clean up their behavior, words and relationships.

Let the adults listen sincerely when they ask the kids, “What would work better?”

Let the adults be the examples and role models before they judge our youth and teens.

Ask yourself,

Do we like to be told what to do?

Are we motivated by being threatened and punished?

Do we respond well to angry tones or respectful requests?

Are you able to understand the need for routine schedules and regular meals?

Would we want to learn from a smiling teacher or resentful critic?

Would we enjoy our life more in a family where parents were responsible.

Would we feel more secure and appreciative with healthy meals prepared by a loving parent?

Would we like to learn how to fix a meal, do the laundry and clean up after ourselves if our parents did?

Listen to your children and all children to see what they want and need.

Observe what make children feel safe and happy and inspired to do well.

Give everyone the best you have every day, including yourself.

You can be a better parent and a better example.

Loving every child by giving them our very best with listening, loving, learning and letting go.
