Resolutions to me are like promises; until they are dropped and broken.

If you can keep them, I applaud you.

For me, Spirit Gave me this whispering last night: count your days.

My heartbeat, my vibration to the world, started at 10:30 pm on an early September night in Quebec back in the early 70’s.  Up until today, January 1, 2024, I have been blessed to live 19, 108 days.

For me, the thing about resolutions is my self-talk if I don’t reach them and the sheer amount of pressure. Depending on the resolve to quit or create a habit, for me, depends on so many things, especially as someone with ADHD. Anxiety about what I haven’t done or what I haven’t been good enough for feeds things like a resolution.

If I now start looking at what I can accomplish in a day, it is more comforting and achievable. I can stay in the gift of the present. I am writing this is 9:44 pm and I am grateful for right now and the Christmas glow of the tree beside me. My daughter and her boyfriend hanging out on the couch reminding me that I have family near and love in my life.

I am grateful for every keystroke, every note of a Twilight soundtrack in my ears that allow me to focus. I am additionally grateful for the fact I am putting my writing out to those who will find it.

On this 19, 108th day, I am grateful to put gold in the cracked narrative of the “New Age” fad and falsehoods that it brings. The messaging that every day, every moment must be positive. To ignore the negative.  In 2016, that way of thinking brought me to a dark place. Where was the negative going? I wasn’t walking through it. I was burying it. Many do the same. This creates a toxic partnership you didn’t sign up for. 

I have had time to spend navigating the worlds of social media and I am not surprised to see how much is out there for those seeking spiritual openings with no closure. For those who don’t know what and how they are looking for, one can easily be led into Darkness and that is a part of the “New Age” toxicity that exists and lives at a very low vibration. Those with the ability to help you see beyond and guide you won’t be the ones out front. They won’t find you because of an algorithm. They will come to you at a time and a place out of your reach and your will. Keep watching for these beautiful gifts when they happen. Because they will happen and probably have. 

When the sun is behind you, a shadow is cast. This is the light and the dark I speak of. It is a gentle balance and one that can be hard to maintain. That is why we have a day and a night, a sun and a moon. Why we have sparkling stars. With daily focus and time spent in a grateful space, directing Love to yourself, it is the most important habit you can create. It is also a habit that you would not want to create at the beginning of a new year. It takes transition and at times, shadow work to shine light in places that have been absent of it.

Your heartbeat is your purpose. Put your hand over your heart now and close your eyes. Picture a clear, starry night.  Feel the rhythm and the warmth. This is your vibration. With your thoughts, your vibration can be high or low. 

Your intention is what is observed and what you send out on your frequency. It is also what is reviewed at the end of your life. One of my guides brought me this understanding at the end of her earthly life and I am sharing it with you.

Actions are important but they are fed by intention. The intention is the internal heart-focused task that feeds the action.  Intentions are reviewed with you at the end of your earthly life. To look and learn through a loving lens.

Our intentions are sent out and remembered upon the stars. Whatever your belief system, this is meant to be a message of kindness and staying peaceful. It is meant to be helping when you are presented with a situation. A situation can be big or small. Something like holding a door open for someone…picking up something and giving it to the person that dropped it… smiling to someone even if they don’t smile back.  To withdraw from drama and toxicity and the energy vampires that wait in the wings. All will have intended reactions. That is Universal law.

On my 19, 109th day, I am grateful for what comes and embrace the Now. 

I am thankful for all of you as we are all connected through a sparkling web. It shimmers with the Holy Energy that binds us. 

The irony of the previous sentence is my fear of spiders. I cannot get enough of their gorgeous homes though. As long as I don’t walk into one…then, it is like a silky tornado as I do my usual Helen dance and to escape the “ick.”

I wish you a wonderful sunrise and sunset and all the love and gifts        in-between as you approach the next day in your life. 

Be too much, be more than you have been, but be authentically you, for you are of Higher creation. ❤

Helen B
