Let the joy flow

You don't need to control others, because you can exercise full control over you. You don't have to gain advantage over others, because you have the unmatched advantage of being you.

You don't have to cajole others into agreeing with you. Because you can live and speak and act with integrity and congruence and in harmony with what you know to be true.

On this day you have the great opportunity of expressing the uniqueness of who you are while also playing your part in the wholeness of all that is. With all that going on, absolutely anything is possible.

Set yourself free from the negative judgments of others by letting go of the need to worry about what they think. Set yourself free from doubt, fear and anxiety by reminding yourself that every experience can add to the richness of who you are.

Stop waiting for the right moment and make this the right moment. Go ahead and live the best of your possibilities by standing up, stepping forward and taking decisive, positive action.

Feel fully the miracle of your unique and beautiful existence. And let the joy flow profusely from the center of your being.
