Note from Suzanne: A nice treat from Sanaya today to end the year--a poem, given to me non-stop to remind us all that we are not alone and are well looked after. May 2012 bring you much love and happiness and an ever greater connection with Spirit.Pick a penny off [...]
Note from Suzanne: I was stationed at the Pentagon the first time in 1995, working in the Navy section. There was a civilian man who wandered the halls every day handing out Werther’s candies to everyone he passed in the hallway on his lunch hour. It must have cost him [...]
Evil does exist in your world, but not in the form of a devil any more than God is in the form of a bearded man in the clouds. There is no horned being with a pitchfork, no dark, bearded man with a glint in his eye. Evil is the [...]
Grief is a process. This you know. It has certain stages. You cannot escape grief when you have lost one who is dear to you, and why would you want to? Yes, we know: because it feels so very awful. The pain at times seems unbearable. Do you not see [...]
The golden years. Why do you call them this? Gold is your most precious metal and holds much value. The golden years are a time to be treasured as well, for by this time you have unraveled many of the mysteries of this life you are living. The veil has [...]
On this day when so many gather to celebrate joy and love together, there will nevertheless be strife. “Interpersonal conflict” you call this, and it is quite common in your world. Today, on this day when you celebrate the birth of one who understood spiritual Truth, we advise you to [...]
Forsake no other for the sake of yourself. What you withhold from another you withhold from yourself. You look through human eyes and see the eyes of another. See instead the eyes of the spirit in all that you see. In the eyes of a baby you see innocence. In [...]
Your expectations cause you angst. You think you know exactly how something should turn out. You place upon a situation and upon other people all of your “shoulds.” And do not others place their “shoulds” upon you as well? What if these “shoulds” should conflict? Then you will surely encounter [...]
You look for figures in the clouds … discernable shapes which you can identify and say, “Look at that! The cloud has formed an object. It is a sign!” We have many means of giving you signs that you are not alone. You have accepted the group belief that life [...]
NOTE FROM SUZANNE: THE FOLLOWING IS NOT FROM SANAYA. THIS IS A WONDERFUL STORY GIVEN TO ME BY MY FRIEND, NITA. WE DO NOT KNOW THE SOURCE OF THIS THOUGHT-PROVOKING ALLEGORY, BUT IT'S TOO GREAT NOT TO SHARE. ENJOY, THEN COME BACK AND ENJOY SANAYA WITH ME EACH MORNING:Once upon [...]
Push fear aside. It is a human emotion. Fear is the opposite of love. You are here to return to Love by experiencing its opposite. Have you experienced it enough? You feel a pang of fear at the thought of going Home. “My work is not done here,” you think, [...]
Many a human has made a poor decision. Not all choices made are in one’s best interest. Some cling to their decisions as if they were belongings which must be protected at all costs. In doing so, the cost grows. Life is about change and growth. It is quite all [...]
Your Source is not separate from you, but It is larger than you. Feel It settle in your heart, this presence, this Christ Consciousness, this knowing that God is not a being, that God is “being,” itself. Can you worship that? You need not worship at all. Simply participate in [...]
Note from Suzanne: This past week I faced a couple of big interpersonal challenges. The sun is back out today. This morning Sanaya spoke directly to me at first, and then to all of us …Do you not see that what you perceived as some of the best messages came [...]
See with new eyes. This is the remedy for when you experience discomfort. If you are unhappy or less than joyful, if your thoughts constantly return to something that makes you uncomfortable, a mere shift in perception will cure your ills. It is quite easy to get stuck in [...]
Conflict arises when two or more do not see eye to eye. You have different ways of approaching the same goal. One wishes to go in one direction, the other in another. Oft times there is confusion about the destination itself. The more you diverge, the more negativity surrounds the [...]
You have an expression, “Do not waste your breath.” To you this means to try fruitlessly to defend yourself. This is good advice. What purpose does it do to state your case? Does it matter if one is right and another wrong? What if both are right in their own [...]
“You cannot win.” Another of your sayings. What is “winning?” It is when you can beat the chest and say, “Do you see? I am victorious. I was right. I caused the other to admit defeat.” Is that truly winning? What have you won, other than a momentary satisfaction of [...]
Circles. Round shapes. Spheres, balloons, balls. These have no corners in which to become stuck and stagnate. A circle is endless. All on the circle cycles round and round, always with the potential to come back to the beginning. All in the sphere is harmoniously connected. Look for the shape [...]
You rush about buying gifts for each other—symbols of your love. Why this tradition of bestowing a gift? “I love you. I wish you to know how much you mean to me. Take this gift as a reminder. When you see it, think of me.”God gives you the gift of [...]
Note from Suzanne: This week Ty and I attended a really fun Christmas party. All present were separated into four groups for a variety of games. For one of these games each team was given a word and had to write a poem based on that word (ours was “sausage!”). [...]
Mastery of the emotions is a lofty goal. To hold a steady state of peace is nigh unto impossible for the average human. Strive for perfection, if you please, but be quite pleased to merely be aware of your emotions from moment to moment. Pay attention to your body. This [...]
You package your gifts in a box, then wrap them in colorful paper. Why do you do this? So that the recipient does not know in advance what treasure lies inside. YOU are gift-wrapped, my friend. God has packaged you for a while in the most beautiful of wrappings: a [...]
Suddenly a thought occurs to you. You have forgotten to do this or that, or you focus on how much work lies ahead. Suddenly you are no longer able to enjoy yourself. The body tenses. What has happened? You were in the now, but now your consciousness has shifted to [...]
An argument that lasts but a minute of your time does cause you to separate yourself from another for not just a minute, but for years. You no longer speak to that other. The body clenches at the mere anticipation of crossing paths, and when you do cross paths, you [...]
Abandonment. What does this mean? In your concept it means that another has left you—that they no longer need nor want you. The very reading of these words brings pain to your heart. All humans want to be needed, wanted, and loved. We wish you to know that when one [...]
