I received this email this morning from a very despondent young lady. Here is her letter (changed a bit to protect identity) and my response. I sincerely hope this has meaning to all.
My response:
“Hi XXXX
Thank you for your email. Just want to say that there is no escaping reality. If you were to leave this world you would go to another world and carry your existing consciousness with you. The only thing that can be done is to set a plan for yourself to heal, help and become the best you possible.
This means:
1. Taking care of body with right nutrition, rest, supplements, etc. Finding a physical hobby you like. Getting out in daylight. Running or moving quickly to get the endorphins up.
2. You would need to have a total health profile to make sure nothing is out of balance like hormones, etc. Then correct this. I always prefer holistic modalities for this. Perhaps Life Extension Institute in XXXX.
3. Time with a spiritual counselor such as me to discover your purpose, right work, the thing that thrills you to be. This will ground you, activate your passion and give your life meaning and alignment. Usually people like you and I have come to earth to help and counsel others. This is why we are very sensitive. :) You can book your appointment here: http://BookLaura.com
4. Understand that there really is no getting away from your self. I had this lesson in my own life when I lost everything and thought I would be homeless. I lost all my money and the love of my life. I was so desperate for a solution, I wanted to die.
Finally I surrendered to guidance. The guidance was, “If it is to be, it is up to me. No one else can do what needs to be done, but me.”
I did not like that guidance, but it was the truth. I had to find a way to earn a living, even though all doors seemed closed to me. I had to live without the love of my life and endure the rejection he had caste upon me when he took up with another woman.
My tears did not help. I had no one to ask for money. My parents were deceased.
I was too sad to even think about suicide. I was beaten down and done.
So how did I get up and walk forward?
I heard a little voice in my head that said, “You have to do it for yourself.” This little voice went off and then I knew the only thing I could do was this work. The work of spirit.
It was very, very clear. The only way I had earned money over the prior 4 years was in the work of being a spirit messenger. So I decided – I MADE THE DECISION, SET THE INTENTION – I would dedicate myself 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, to LIVE MY LIFE as best I could.
I DECIDED TO PARTICIPATE.
After that it was not easy. Even now 5 years later, I have moments of sadness, but over all I am very very jubilant indeed. I now at times even feel ecstatic!
So the answer my friend is in you. You are the answer. You count. What you do counts. How you behave counts. How you spend your time, energy, how you think counts. Not only for you, but for everyone because WE ARE ALL CONNECTED.
You have responsibility to the all that is as an energy being. Just as we have responsibility to you. We are all connected. Science is proving this more and more at a deep, quantum level.
Get on my calendar and book a session. I would like to speak with you and see what can be done. Book here: http://BookLaura.com
I salute the God in you.
