Discerning what is true can be confusing. Thinking of this, I asked for a special message to help with that. They gave us a first step or two. I think this one’s both wise and useful, hopefully you’ll find it so, as well.
Love to you today,

Contemplate what is true.

Look at what is said by yourself or others and ask: Is this true? Set aside your own beliefs about it, your strong opinions or hopes. Say aloud, “I don’t just want to know what I think, I really want to know what is most true.” This helps you be a more open conduit.

Next, notice clearly what is felt or believed by yourself and ask, “Is that true?” First understand your own perspective and desires and how they influence what you see about this. Contemplate this then set your current perspective aside. Then ask, What else might be true? Feel into this rather than think about it.

Then ask, What else could be true? List possibilities aloud. This a simple step and fun to bring your creativity to. List the other things that could be true instead, or true also. Sometimes there are other things also true and they change how something looks.

And finally ask, “IWhat is true?” then hold in silence, letting it simply be followed by a more informed frequency, not needing further thought or examination. This is another way – simply opening to what more, or what else, or what instead – is true.

These simple means lead to new ways of feeling or viewing whatever is at hand. They also give access to inner feelings of what yet can’t be known. And most important, these few methods bring an expanded frequency that can now easily upgrade what was formerly was not well-conceived. This is a good way for that to happen, one frequency simply informing and up-grading the other.

The aim of these three suggestions is they allow your truth to expand. The expansion of truth is an integral part to any pilgrim’s progress. It is the expansion of truth that leads to better decisions, more knowing and wiser actions and choices.

Revealing the Source
of Heart of Love Messages

These messages tumble out pretty much as you find them here, yet I don’t call them channeled words because their source is not outside of myself. My phrase is “inspired wisdom.” When I connect to the “more that is there,” or “the Expanded Self” as I sometimes call it, I find it beating within me like a message from the very heart of love. It makes me smile to express the fullness of all things in this way, to feel that communion and Presence. And more and more that is the sense I walk in through my day.

I’ve explained the source of these messages because I know that more and more this is how you walk through your day as well.

Dear Ma HuLliLi,

A house mouse was wrecking a bit of devastation so I set a live trap. It fell for the bait and is trapped by this morning. Mice come back in if simply let outside; I need to take it farther away than my neighborhood or the next.

My plan is to meditate but I don’t want it to have to wait that long for freedom. So early off together we go, heading for the park where I set it free in a place filled with bark and other bits, and pecans dropped from nearby trees.

There are dry grasses here for cover and seed pods waiting to open up to Spring, and rushes rustling near the pond. It’s a fine place for mouses. And as for my musings, what better place? So after little mouse scurried away I take my time there on the rock in the sun.

I listen. One of my favorite forms of meditation is eyes-closed listening… listening close, listening far, listening in between… it always leads to listening within.

Near, I hear rustling in the leaves at my feet. Expanding that, I hear the birds in the trees and wind in the branches. A ways away, there are friendly voices. And high above there’s a hawk calling in flight.

Listening far, there is traffic, away in the distance. It sounds almost like rushing water from here. And farther still, from time to time, a faint honk or two. Farther than that and it is quiet. Quiet. I listen to the far silence and soon I fall inside out.

Dear Day Dreamer,

I just spoke with a friend who related that in her 4th grade class recently she and her co-teacher read the Langston Hughes poem Hold Fast to Dreams.

Hold fast to dreams/ For if dreams die/ Life is a broken-winged bird/ That cannot Fly/ Hold fast to dreams/ For when dreams go/ Life is a barren field/ Frozen with snow.

After reading the poem they had discussion about having a dream, and the children wrote poems about it. During the discussion, the other teacher asked the children what they thought it meant to hold fast to their dream.

My friend shared a few of the answers given. They were wonderful, of course. This led me to prompt my friends with younger children to ask their children the same question. Their answers contain so much wisdom for us grownups. Here they are for your own reflection and enjoyment.

What does it mean to hold fast to your dream?

• Spend time really imagining it.
• Hold on to it like a puppy.
• Feel the electricity of it.
• Enjoy your dream, don’t worry about it.
• Take your dream seriously, ‘cuz it matters to you.
• Learn what is real about your dream.
• Speak your dream out loud because words make dreams real.
• Pin your dream up in your head and look at it a lot.
• Don’t be afraid you won’t get it, because you will.
• Give your dream a big hug.
• If your dream wants you to work for it don’t be too afraid to.
• Don’t forget you dreamed it.
• Be like a magnet that sucks dreams to it.
• Dream it real.

Young children are certainly our experts on making daydreams a daily reality. It’s a good moment in time for us to reflect on how children do this so much more simply and effectively than we do.

The process of creating the world we want is actually the high Art of Dreaming – what I call Awakened Dreaming – and your inner kid is chomping to get on with it! Dream it real, fellow dreamer, dream it real.

See you in the DreamTime, dear Awakened Dreamer.

Warmest hugs,
~Mayet
