My dear friends, we love you so very much,

There is purpose for everything in your world, everyone, and everything in your lives. There is value in the situations you consider good, and in the situations you consider bad. Love is attempting to surface in the kind people and in those who aren't so kind. Everything and everyone you come across serves a purpose in your life. Every encounter offers you a chance to grow.

Before you were born, you came in with what we call "Travel Plans." You had lessons you wanted to learn. You had contributions you wanted to make. Above all you wanted to reconnect with love, compassion, joy, and various qualities of the Divine. Some of you wanted to learn to embrace and share those qualities. Some of you wanted to learn to receive them. Some of you simply wanted to embrace love in any form.

Some of you planned your lives in great detail - who you would meet, how you would attempt to learn and grow where you would like to live, etc. Some of you came in with a rough idea of what you wanted to learn and you're "winging it" while learning to live in trust and faith.

No matter what you planned, you have free will. You can choose to enjoy your life and look for the love, or you can choose to be victimized by it. However, when you know that everyone and everything is here to help you reconnect to love – either by inspiration or challenge – then even if you were technically a victim, it is hard to remain victimized for long.

You can, instead, ask yourself, "What can I learn from this? How can I grow? What do I need to do in this moment to treat myself with love and kindness? How can I also be honest with myself and kindly honest with all involved?"

Dear ones you came into this life eager for growth, eager for the relationships with other human beings that would catalyze your growth, eager for the situations that would help you embrace your inner light, your love, and your power to create. Sometimes these people and situations offer warm and fuzzy feelings, and joyful growth, and sometimes they do not. Nonetheless, in all cases, they are here to help you learn to love self, express self, and BE the deepest and truest you that you can be!

So, in any circumstance realize you are there to learn, to grow, to love self, to feel your connection with God. Then from that full cup you will spill over and love the light in all you encounter. As you embrace this more fully and consciously you can grow – even through the tough times – with greater ease, joy, grace, and of course, loving guidance.

God Bless You! We love you so very much.
