"If you don't have anything nice to say, don't say anything at all," was how I was raised, and how I lived for most of my life.

The pact you have with your angels is they will stay with you throughout your life for protection. If you get off your path and start to live out of fear instead of love, they are with you to nudge you back to center. You also have other angels that come and go during different life issues. When you are expecting a child, when you're moving, or when you have a health crisis, extra angels come and help. They are needed, and they are provided.

If you are asking for a big thing - something about marriage, moving, or health, for example - that's when you need the angels the most, but paradoxically that's also when it is the most difficult for you to hear them. When you get stressed and uptight, your communication energies shut down. So, what I like to do is ask the angels for a sign that I'm getting the message right. The prayer I use is, "Angels, let me know whether or not this is true divine guidance. Please give me a clear sign in the physical world that I can easily notice and understand."

Never be afraid of failure or disappointment, because those are just temporary experiences on the path to your dreams coming true

I'd been conflict-phobic my entire life because I didn't want to lose my inner core of peace.

We can only feel happy and fulfilled if we're engaged in our (soul's) purpose.

When you stand up for yourself, you are standing up for everyone who will follow your positive example!
