Guidance

(Written in November 2008)
Dear Guides & Guardian Spirits, I’m feeling pretty bummed out.  I have short times of feeling OK, but it doesn’t last.  Can you help me?
Dear Jenny, we love you, we love you very much.  Actually there are a lot of people out there who love you.  We think you are doing the thing of checking to see if what you are doing is making you feel better.  This doesn’t really work.  Better to do something because it’s worth doing — like organizing the CD’s — and when your energy flags, it’s OK to sit quietly and pay attention to that part of you that’s so unhappy.  She has good reason to be unhappy — all her early experience taught her that there was no one she could count on for guidance and support.  There was no older, wiser, trustworthy person she could go to for help when she was hurting and sad.  Your job now is not to make it OK for her, it’s just to be with her, let her have her feelings, and hold both of you in compassion.  That’s all, dear, that’s really all you have to do.
