She is two years old and gripping her mom’s hand tightly.

And at the same time an interesting and intriguing sight looms ahead.

Oh, sweetie pie,

It’s a big world out there, but you are going to have to let go of your mom’s hand if you want to see it.

There is intrigue in her eyes.
The debate looms large.

Which will it be?

The comfort of mom’s hand or the adventure of the unknown.

Which will it be?

I ask myself this same question every day.

And every day I am afraid.

And some days I let go of the hand that holds me and some days I cling.

The unknown beacons.

What will you do sweet one?

Which will you choose?

I’m ready for the truth now.

The truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth.

I woke up with this feeling today.
After months and even years of confusion.

I’m ready for the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth.

What would you know, if you were not pretending not to know?

What truth have your pretended not to see?

I want the truth. The whole truth. And nothing but the truth.

And I don’t want to call a friend.
And I don’t want to consult the psychic.
And I don’t want to talk to a therapist.

No, I want to see it for myself.

I want the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth.

Don’t water it down for me.
Don’t sugar coat it.

I want truth.
I want honesty.
I want total transparency.

What would you know if you weren’t pretending not to know?

What truth would revel itself to you, if you were ready to receive it?

Do you want the truth?
Are you ready for the truth?

As for me, I’m tired of living a lie.

I want the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth.

Reveal your secrets to me oh universe.

I’m ready.

Here is an excerpt from this weeks meditation class on trust. Enjoy!

I trust.

I trust.
I trust.

I let go and I trust the process of life.
I let go and I trust the process of life.

I trust.
I trust.

I trust that all of life is conspiring in my favor.
I trust that spirit is working with me to manifest what I need.

I trust that everything is always working out for me.
I trust that I walk in the charmed circle of Gods love.

I trust.
I trust.

I trust that I am learning from my challenges.
I trust that my challenges have come to make me stronger.

I trust that I am learning from my places of ease and
I trust that I am learning from my challenges.

I trust that I am learning from all of life.
I trust that all of life is conspiring in my favor.

Take a moment now and let yourself be filled with a feeling of trust.

Affirm:

I trust.
I trust.

Feel the vibration of the words.
Embody it.

Allow every cell of your body to be filled with trust.

I trust.
I trust.

See how deeply you can go into trust.

Walk in trust.
Sit in trust.
Stand in trust.

Allow yourself to be immersed in the feeling of trust.

I trust.
I trust.

Now combine your trust with wisdom and wise decision making.
Affirm:

I trust and I am wise.
I am a wise decision maker.

I couple my trust with wisdom.

Take a moment now and allow yourself to filled with a feeling of trust. See how deeply you can go into the vibration of trust. Allow your body to be filled with trust. When you are immersed in the vibration of trust, your crown chakra will naturally open. When your crown chakra is open you can more easily access and hear your spiritual guides and beings of light who are all around you. When your crown chakra is open you can receive downloads from the universe.

Take a moment now and ask: What do I need to know at this time? Listen deeply and be aware of what information comes to you. Take time every day to immerse yourself in the vibration of trust. As always combine your trust in life with wise decision making.

Also do not confuse your trust in life and trust in spirit with trust in people. People are learning and growing and evolving. Unless they have reached full enlightenment they cannot be fully trusted. Put your trust in life and listen deeply to guidance. Trust, be wise, and listen. You will be guided.
