As many of the souls living on earth now can attest, a part of your soul, your energy, lives a parallel life. To you, that life might seem like the future, but on the soul level, it is simultaneous. You do, however, have what you would call a future self.

When you ask for guidance about a certain situation in your life, you will be helped to create a reality in your best interest. You will also be warned of any potential repercussions should it appear that your choices do not serve the goal you strive for.

When you receive the guidance you asked for but you do not follow it, you will find yourself feeling regret, find yourself having to go back to square one. So do yourself a favor and follow your guidance! Many of you channel, see visions, do writings, psychically receive information, or intuitively "know" something. But because your ego is only concerned with gratifying itself in the moment, your ego fights with your higher knowing or guidance to sway you, to cause you to give in to what may satisfy you in the moment. This prevents you from receiving the good you seek.

Many of you doubt your information, yet it is real. Only after repeated, observable accounts do you say, "OK, now I know this is real. I will follow my guidance." Once you do, you find your path to be so much easier, far less painful - because the perspective given to you is the highest perspective; it comes from your higher self or future self, so it knows exactly how to get from where you are at this moment to wherever or whatever your goal is.

Another part of the "illusion" is that there exists no other universe but planet Earth and no other type of being except humanity, which still has not evolved beyond the level of people shooting each other on a highway or taking a piece of gold in exchange for a human life. The thought that this is the highest evolved species in this universe is a concept created only by your ego. There are civilizations far more advanced in every possible way, civilizations far more loving, compassionate, and cooperative, and that is why they are more evolved.

After this life on earth, a small percentage of you may choose to reincarnate into another life on earth to help the human species; or you may choose to remain in the fourth dimension because your energy vibration has truly risen above the negative density of the third dimension. Either way, your choices are before you, and we do take one life at a time.

The part of your soul that experiences life as what you would call your future self can and does transfer information back to you, because you share the energy of one vast soul. Therefore you can know what to do and how to get from one point in your life to another, but your intentions must be of the purest form, solely of love and light. As many of you already know, the more spiritually evolved you are, the more and the faster any intention of malice backfires. You are far too aware, and you pay a dear price for any negative intention or action. Therefore, purity of thought, word, and deed is of the utmost importance when you are trying to manifest something in your life.

The universe will literally rush in to help you when your motive or intention is to be of help or service, or when you seek to manifest something of love in your life, so long as it truly serves your highest good and can ultimately serve the highest good of all.

Many of you who are involved with your soul mates will find that the energy you share, once combined, is truly an unstoppable force for so much good not only for your own personal bliss but for that of all people. So when you go against the current of your own energy, you feel as if you are fighting a raging river, and this is both exhausting and painful. Much better is to go with the flow of your natural current, in the direction of your natural energy, which is seeking to bring you farther along on the path of your own chosen evolution. You see, stagnation hurts. All human beings feel so much more alive when they strive to be or simply are their own personal best. When you settle for less than your best, you know it. This erodes your self-esteem. It never enhances it.

So as you ask for a solution or guidance to help move in a positive direction in your life, trust that your guidance, wisdom, or newfound clarity is coming from your higher self. Much information is sent to you from your future self as well. All communicate, all give and receive information, which is transmuted into thought patterns or energy frequencies that reach you in a way you can easily decipher. Once you get a consistent exchange going, the communication becomes clearer, more precise, and more easily understood.

For when you communicate to your higher self, it is as if you have an energy frequency tuned to one wave, like a radio station. Your higher self, your future self, your soul is always tuned into you, but some effort is required for you to tune in, so the energy exchange or frequency can be adjusted, like a radio dial, for the precise frequency that can result in a clear back-and-forth connection, easily heard and understood, to the point that it has a positive, expansive, and significant effect in your life, all of your own asking. Of course, whether or not you follow your guidance is up to you.

So, if you have opened up your ability to communicate with that part of your soul which can see the big picture, the tapestry, please trust that you are not making it all up. Your energy vibration is higher than it was earlier in your life, when perhaps you were not as open to your multi-sensory communication, so it may feel as if it is coming from "just you," and it truly is. It is coming from that part of you which exists outside the material world, yet simultaneously experiences your life in the material world.

To break away from the material world, your consciousness must be expanded enough to know that your life is but a part of the tapestry of your soul's existence.

An event in your life is only a part of your life and not your whole life. Do keep the grander picture in mind. Keep the perspective that any event or circumstance or person in your life does not constitute your entire life but a part of it.

This can be either most pleasurable or most painful. I would venture to say that any experience that brings you pain is there for you to grow and learn from. Moreover, any experience that brings you pleasure is given to you because you deserve to experience pleasure.

Do seek to grow and to learn so all of your life can be as joyful and as pleasurable as possible.

Suffering is part of the tapestry until you realize the gift or the reason for the suffering. In most cases suffering stems from denial of what is in front of you and from your fear of embracing that which is trying to move you in the most positive direction. So, as you suffer, you are forced to look at the source of your suffering. It is not the other. It is you. And it is your choice to either embrace the experiences before you or walk away from them. You will know which course of action will ultimately bring you the greatest happiness. When you are true to yourself, you always know what to do.

This is paramount in a consciousness, a life that seeks to evolve.
Your potential is unlimited as a human being.
Your existence within the material world is before you to discover who you truly are in relation to all that is around you. Are you greedy or generous? Passionate or coldly indifferent? Compassionate or angry?

You choose, in relation to all that surrounds you.
To break free from the negative cycle so many on earths engage in, you turn within to find your highest perception of self. And you find that you are connected not only to all of humanity but to a vast universe you have yet to see. Yet, aspects of your soul exist in parallel universes and communicate with you because your energy is vast, and you are so much more than you realize today in this earthbound, material existence.

You are a part of the cosmos that awaits you, a universe in which you will experience every aspect of your being.

See the grander picture, the whole tapestry. Do not ever become so negative or caught up in what many call the cosmic joke: the trials of petty everyday circumstances, the traffic tickets, traffic in general, a job, a credit report, a house. All of these things are transient. You, however, are eternal. Your soul knows no boundaries and neither should you.

The truth is you have no boundaries. That is the illusion. See beyond the circumstances before you. Ask for help. You receive assistance every moment. Your life, your soul, does not take the microcosm of your daily experience as seriously as your ego does. It looks to the macrocosm, and there it finds peace.

When you spill water on your business suit, you may get upset. But when you look out over the vast ocean, you feel peace.

Such is the peace of a higher perspective. Seeing the big picture helps to ease the tears of the day. It shows how each drop is necessary for the whole, and the whole of your life can be achieved only by choosing to see the beauty within each day. Each moment is equated with a drop of the most peaceful ocean water. Treasure your moments whether they come from rain, tears, or the fine mist of morning dew. For each drop will never be separate from the whole of your life, yet it is not the whole of your life. Choose the perspective that brings peace to your heart. Choose the level of awareness that sees beyond the ordinary and brings you into the extraordinary where you belong, simultaneously within yet broken away from the material world.

Don't take it all so seriously, yet treasure every nuance. Bring the highest and best out from within your own being, for this is the only way you can truly serve. If you each do this, then ultimately the paths of many will share a richer, more peaceful experience within the tapestry of humanity.
