You get to choose your point of view from moment to moment just as you choose your mood. Will you be grumpy or cheerful? Loving and kind or judgmental? “Choose it?” you ask if you do not realize that you can choose the thoughts you pay attention to and act upon. It is a choice to remain misaligned with your beautiful True Nature, for misalignment is quite obvious. Why? Because within you is a soul that is the bridge between your human nature and True Nature as the Life Force in expression. This is the greatest choice you make: to express as this loving Divine Nature’s purest tone, or something out of tune. You are not only human. No matter which point of view you choose, you are always and already so very loved.

Many times through the course of a day,
Into my consciousness, negative thoughts stray
An old adage should read, I am beginning to think,
You can lead a Mind to water, but you can’t make it drink
Wearing a rubber band around my wrist,
I snap it every time notions go amiss.
Now, my forearm is swollen & red,
Enough for one day, I am going to bed.
Enjoying my last stretch & an exhausted yawn,
Promising myself a fresh start at the crack of dawn.
I know, it is but a choice to be loving and kind
Would be so much easier if everyone didn’t chap my behind.
It is said as you age, you get long in the tooth.
Getting a shorter fuse speaks more too the truth.
Honestly, my intentions are to smile and be a good sport.
Please pray for this grumpy old man of an eccentric sort.
I so appreciate most of these messages!
To this one I feel the need to add that imbalances in brain chemistry (e.g. depression & other mental illnesses) make it quite difficult to feel that one has such a ‘free’ choice, even if one is fairly self-aware. (When I feel depressed…i.e. am short on serotonin, it is next to impossible to change my thinking even if I am aware that that could theoretically be helpful. Vice versa, when this heavy fog has lifted with the help of an anti-depressant, thinking, in my experience, automatically becomes positive and I can begin to contemplate such thoughts as Sanaya offers.) Sanaya is aware of this…(?)
Yes, Andrea, and much teaching has flowed in the last few days. Once sorted through, I’ll surely be sharing it in the October monthly mentoring session!
Good Morning – While this is truly a beautiful sentiment, I’m confused as to the semantics involved in “choosing to remain misaligned” with our true nature. Our paradigm as Human not only involves joy, pleasure and happiness but also the very real and as intense emotions as grief, pain and loss which can perhaps be more debilitating and life changing. Our “true nature” can be so complex that just by simply “choosing” to focus on circumventing this misalignment does not equal living in a state of Nirvana; for lack of a better descriptive. I can “choose” to focus on the positive – that old cliche – but when wounds and grief run deep and the “soul” cries for understanding, how can you possibly see the forest through the trees?
You are absolutely correct, Gary, and it’s something my guides are giving me much greater clarity about in the last few days! More to follow!
Love your timely messages?
I hear you!!!
Thank You ???
Gary makes a very good point. Unfortunately, it is not always easy to choose your thoughts.
Sometimes, life is simply cruel to you and sometimes life is very disappointing
.. no matter how kind and good you are..
Changing your viewpoint sometimes makes zero difference.
“What do you do when the world gets you down? You remember this is not the only world. This awareness makes all the difference in the world.” Sanaya
So much true.
