Lost on the Rocky Road

Are you feeling angry? Despondent? Reached a very low point from which you cannot seem to rise above?

Good for you! Yes, we say, good for you!

You have realized that you are lost. Now you can stop heading in the wrong direction and try something different.

Whenever you feel this way, know that you must make a change to correct it. Is it not wonderful that the Universe gives you this chance? This wake up call? 

When you feel lost it is because those of us on this side of the veil are screaming, "WRONG WAY! TURN AROUND!"

When you hear us, we rejoice. To you this might sound like derisive laughter, but we cannot help ourselves. We are so glad to have been heard.

So, what next? You are depressed, furious and your head aches from banging it against the wall. 

Ask yourself, what have I learned? What is the theme here? 

You will see common issues coming up. People that bother you in a particular way. Old fears resurfacing through new experience. 

Look for the common thread, and yank it out. Hold it up to the light and examine it. Once you have identified it, you can discard it and not have to deal with it again.

Thank the Universe for giving you this opportunity to change before a huge disaster strikes. Then make the change. It may be an attitude or a behavior, but you will find it if you look and all will make sense.

What is certain, if you are to continue down the path you will just become more lost, more frustrated and it will take longer to find your way.

How lucky you are that the Universe loves you so. ~Silas

All Work and All Play

Sometimes it is that which seems the least logical that is the correct answer. When you have tried all of the traditional ways of doing things, try something non-traditional. What have you got to lose?

For instance, you are stressed and overwhelmed with work, chores and to-dos. 

You cannot in your wildest imagination see it all getting done.

This is the perfect time to take a break.

Does this sound illogical? It is not.

You see, the problem is not that you have too much to do, the problem is that you cannot see yourself accomplishing it and this causes you stress.

The stress is your problem, not your tasks. 

When you feel completely overwhelmed, take 5 to 10 minutes (more if you have it) and play. Stop thinking about work and do something fun. 

This is the ultimate purpose for work. You make money, you pay for your food and living space so that you can take the time to have fun. If this is not your goal, then you need to rethink your work priorities.

Don't worry that you won't get it done. A little play time (dancing, singing, walking in nature etc.) will clear your head and organize your thoughts so that your work is more efficient. 

You will work smarter rather than harder and be absolutely amazed with what you can accomplish.

Start enjoying your life,whether you have a lot to do, or not. Otherwise, you are missing the point of this incarnation. ~Silas

It's Okay to Hug a Tree

You make jokes about being barefoot and hugging trees, yet this is your natural state.

Staying indoors can become an addiction. Much like eating food that is not healthy, you may get a "rush" from air conditioning and television. You may feel uncomfortable out of doors and miss the security and climate control of staying inside.

Like eating nutritious food and exercising, it may take a while to feel good outside. You may fear the "burn" of the sun or the dirt beneath your feet, but try it for some time each day.

Soon you will find it helps you to stay grounded. You will enjoy the tickling feeling of wind on your face, appreciate the warmth of the sun and find visual pleasure in the sights and sounds of nature.

Consciously go outside every day and breathe the fresh air. Fill your heart with loving thoughts and send them down into Mother Earth. Breathe in more love and send it up to Father Sky. Then quiet your mind stay still and breathe. 

Feel the response that returns to you and know that you are an indispensable part of nature. 

You are loved, you are life, you are right where you belong.......in the family. ~Silas

Strengthen Your Magnet

So, you are disappointed with Spirit? The new car, job, computer or shoes you have been working at manifesting has not come to you yet?

Can you feel it?

Close your eyes, imagine what you would like, and feel what it is like to have it. Walk into a store that you've always wanted to shop in and pick out the perfect outfit, complete with accessories. Imagine yourself walking down the street wearing it. How does it feel? How does the material flow? Can you see the faces of others admiring it?

Look for the car, purse, computer or sound system that you have been wanting, online.

Take a trip in your mind, imagine the speed with which you surf the Internet, hear the deep, rich sounds coming from your new speakers.

Then give thanks. Your consciousness doesn't realize that you don't have it yet. 

If you can keep your thoughts of what you wish for positive and strong, It will be attracted to you. Like attracts like. 

A magnet and metal are not exactly alike. The magnet vibrates at a frequency that attracts the metal object you are trying to get. The stronger the magnet, the more quickly the metal will be drawn to and eventually stick to it. 

Spend time every day strengthening your magnet. If you are dedicated to this task, what you desire will not only come to you, it will stick to you and you will not be able to get rid of it. 

You are already gifted at attracting things you don't want, so, simply, turn your thinking around. You may be asked to take action, but that action will only strengthen your magnet so do not resent it.

Be grateful and say, "Thank you!" with enthusiasm to Spirit for granting your wish. It has already happened and is rocketing its way towards you. 

We are very excited for you! Enjoy! ~Silas

Glad to Be Sad

It troubles us, sometimes, to see you feeling sad or depressed. We understand why this happens for we are also sad sometimes.

The sadness is not who you are. It will pass if you let it. It will remain if you chose to hold onto it. 

Constant sadness is not you're natural state. If you cannot escape it, then enlist the help of a friend or counselor.

Most of you will have blue moments. Blue is one of many colors on the spectrum. It complements the reds and yellows, merges with the greens and violets. 

A life without a little blue would not be pleasant. 

Sadness is release. An ending that makes new beginnings possible.

It is cleansing rain, that clears away negative energy, allowing more room for love and light.

It is a pressure release valve that keeps your emotions from exploding.

Be glad that you can be sad, just don't live there.

There are too many other colors of the rainbow to explore. ~Silas

You Agreed to Play the Game

Why does Spirit not send me clear signs? Just tell me what to do!

This would seem like a simple request, yet you are not here to talk directly with the Divine Source as you would a friend standing next to you in three dimensional existence. Your purpose for being here is not to have all of your questions immediately answered or your every whim granted without delay.

If this were truly your desire, you would not be here. You could do this much more easily on the other side of the veil.

You were there once. Your soul wanted a challenge. You stood in the presence of the Divine and said, "I'm the one! Pick me! I am up for the task!"

You were chosen and sent here. That is the ultimate granting of a wish.

So, why let it stop there? This is what you asked for. It's time to make some magic!

You wanted to play the game, so here are the rules:

Love one another and yourself, do no harm, and bring your dreams to life on this planet.

"But, I've tried!" you insist. 

Stop trying, start playing the game.

You are not spoiled, you came here to work or you would not have been granted the privilege. Spiritual work is about creating Heaven on Earth and abundance and prosperity for all. So if you're not enjoying the experience, you still have work to do.

Imagine you are playing a mystery solving game. You are given clues to follow to resolve the mystery and get your reward. What fun would it be if the treasure were handed to you at the start? It would all be over too quickly and you would have learned nothing.

Jump in and play the game. Adventures await. Scary things might pop out and there may be stressful times, but they are only challenges added for your entertainment and growth. One day you will look back and say, "My how I have grown! Things are so much better now!"

Wherever you find yourself in life, be joyful, be appreciative and have adventures. 

Find happiness here and now. See problems as challenges that will give you knowledge and experience.

Look for signs from Spirit as clues. Follow them like birds and butterflies as you dance down the path of life.

You will learn many things and achieve many goals while you are here.

Don't rush to get to the end of the game. That will only put you on the other side, raising your hand for a chance to incarnate on Earth. 

Now that would be working too hard. ~Silas

You've Got the Manifesting Blues

If you are struggling with your manifestations, it would probably trouble you to hear, that the Divine provides you with everything that you ask for.

Before you begin to swear, let us explain. 

The Divine is always standing ready to grant your requests. All of them, without fail. It is you who actually deny them.

Sometimes your focus may not be strong enough. You don't want the "thing" that badly. 

Sometimes, your ego convinces you that you want things that you cannot handle or would bring you more grief.

Your soul knows what you need in this life.  Surprisingly, your soul's needs are few, but as this life is meant to be fun, you are granted certain luxuries.
 
If something is truly not good for you, you will have trouble focusing on it. You will feel doubt and fear. You will hesitate. If you continue, you will get it, but it might not be what you want.

No, we are not playing psychological games with you. You play them with yourself. We often wonder why, but find it amusing to watch, unless you hurt yourself.

There is no difference between that which you must do in this life and that which you desire. You will always be granted the time, talents and resources to accomplish your life's purpose. 

If you want to know what you truly desire, then follow your passion. Play chase with it. Dance with it. Get to know and love it. Then bring it to life. You already have all that you need to accomplish this.

Do not work so hard on your manifestation attempts, work instead on your passion. That will lead you where you need to go.

And that is where you will find all that you are seeking now. ~Silas
