All humans have brains, but there are not so many who know how to use them effectively in order to harmoniously evolve together with Nature. There is also the human heart which carries out vital functions of the human body. Human heart has to go through the challenging process of refining the feelings and emotions so we can enjoy a quality life.

The argument of what is more important, the Human Heart or the Human Brain, has been a cornerstone between scientific minds and followers of the spiritual beliefs. What should govern human life – rational way of thinking or emotions? Should we listen to our intellect or follow out heart? It seems that it is almost impossible to combine both of them, just like fire and water. Too much fire can turn water into air and too much water can put the fire down. However, if you really know how to use both, you can find the way for them to work in a powerful synergy and create a steam engine.

Everything you ‘touch’ reverberates with you; every situation, emotion and experience…..everything is you and you are everything; the Great Wheel never stops. This has always been a part of The Universal Plan. ~ Creator

You are on the planet to be you, to express and experience your delightful you-ness in whatever ways feel best to you. Others are on the planet to do the very same thing. Simply being you in your purest expression of self is success. Encouraging others to be their own purest expression of self is supporting their success. If you were able to see success as just that, you would move out of the energies of right or wrong, should or shouldn’t, good or bad. You would shift out of judging, and fearing being judged, and into acceptance for others and yourself. You would finally give yourself permission to shine and thrive like never before. ~Archangel Gabriel

“The truth is, unless you let go, unless you forgive yourself, unless you forgive the situation, unless you realize that the situation is over, you cannot move forward.” - Steve Maraboli (1)

If we want to emotionally survive in this world, we’ll want to learn to roll with the punches and let things go. Things will happen each day that we’d rather ignore or hide from, and the best thing we can do is embrace them and ask ourselves how we can solve the problems they’ve presented.

Or, we can hide away and hate the world for the challenges it gives us. It’s easy to stay rooted in our own negativity, which can pop up at random times over silly things that, when we look back on, we wonder why we reacted so strongly to, but happiness will seem further and further away if we do.

I’ve had plenty of experience with the self-created negativity that comes with facing challenges, and it’ll get us down and keep us from shining our light all day if we let it. It’s far more worth our time to willingly meet the challenges we face as we flow through life, but as long as we let it, the mind’s rigidity will keep us from handling challenge in a centered way.

To all those who have a recurring pattern of freezing up when wanting to move forward with something:

Banish the reality this moment of 'freezing up' with your work/love/abundance/anything. The you who froze is an illusion, a concept created by old fears that no longer live in your neighbourhood.

You are flowing with creative water. You are creative water flowing. That is who you are, and who you have always been. The ice is now shattered like the illusion that held it together.
