Yesterday we spoke of being aware of everything that follows the word “but” being an indicator of a self imposed limitation. We would like to expand on that today.

When you speak a sentence that contains the word “but” the beginning part of that statement is spoken by your inner creator – the part of you that wishes to grow and expand. It is the part of the sentence that contains your dreams, your desires, your preferences, and what your soul sees as potential. It is spoken by your highest self, the part of you that flows, and seeks to move, unimpeded, into your next great creation and expression of self.

The “but” is the indicator of the impending shift into the lower self. The energy of the word “but” is intentionally stalling. It immediately stops the flow. Everything that follows is the work of the lower self, the part of you that seeks to keep you small and wishes for everything to stay the same. It is the part of you that is not interested in expansion or enlightenment, and will try to control your experience through fear and doubt.

So the first part of any sentence that contains the word “but” is always the creative, expansive, soul driven part of you, the “but” pushes the pause button, and what follows is the formation of road blocks between you and your dream. Another way to look at it is the first part is heart-centred expansion, the “but” is the indicator of a change of leadership, and the end is mind-centered contraction.

There are so many Layers of Life in the world, so many aspects of Life that peek out at you, aspects piled up one after the other like so many blankets. How many Coverings and Paraphernalia of Life are there when all is said and done, you wonder. No matter how neatly the blankets are stacked. At some point, the temperature may change, and you may feel that you were booby-trapped in the blink of an eye and Life let you down.

Perhaps you counted on someone who at one point in time could not be counted on. Of course, the someone wasn’t the illusionist. That was you --you held the title. You held onto what could not be held onto. You would have been wise to let go long ago, yet you held on until the layers of blankets were tattered and pulled from your reach.

You felt harshly dealt with, yet you were the one who held on for the sake and shape of what you wanted. It matters to you how a certain relationship or event turns out. Ultimately, Life turns out as it turns out. What could have been is beside the point. Perhaps it was for a while and not long enough, yet that doesn’t mean that Life owes you.

Why are you bereft when Life Moves On? It may seem to you that there are others who have a stability in their lives, but not you, oh, no, not you. Invariably, the blanket seems to be pulled out from underneath you.

You set sail on one ship, and return on another. You have no say as to when you are to leave one ship for another. The thing for you to do is to embrace your next voyage.

You are your own beginning, middle and end. There is beauty in that simplicity.  Embrace it! ~ Creator

Beloveds, don’t be afraid to make a wrong move.

Who told you that you have to be perfect in the eyes of the world? Not I. A desire for perfection may well immobilize you from moving forward. Desire for perfection often stalls you. It is a delaying action. Brave is the Soul Who can let go of having to be perfect in the world.

I understand how it is not generally easy for you to be cavalier with mistakes. I have to tell you directly that you must let go of the idea of perfection in the world. You have to. When you do, this will be a red-letter day. This will be cause for celebration. Doing your best and having to be perfect are too different things.

Remind yourself more than once that everything in this world is compared to something else.

Look, your first draft at writing a story could turn out to be more real, more solid, more magnificent than all the fine-toothed versions that follow. You can revamp grammar, refine the structure, etc., and you may also remove all the life from your story. Momentum has great value.

Perfection may not let go of its hold on you. Some of My blessed souls, rather than living their lives, stall them at every turn. Your intellect is not to always come first. Satisfy your heart, your heart, your beautiful heart.

On Earth, dear Ones, there is always more perfection to be had around the corner. When you seek perfection, you may think you are being realistic, yet you are enmeshing yourself in the purest of fantasies.
