Unfortunately, it does take pain to wake us up sometimes.

When we ask for advice, we're really looking for confirmation of what our soul already knows.

You don't automatically sprout angel wings when you get to the other side - you grow them here.

If we're honest with ourselves, most people want to know that there's more to this life, there's more after this life.

Study your thoughts and question them. What am I telling myself that is keeping me stuck or holding me back? What is this pattern of thinking that says I'm less than I am, which is absolute magnificence? It's our thoughts that hold us back.

I know, personally, that I would not be in the beautiful state of awareness that I find myself in daily now - knowing that love is the essence of all that is - had I not had the most painful of all experiences, the loss of my stepdaughter.

The spirit world wants us to know there's more to this life.
