THE PURPOSE OF THE SUNRISE

Good morning! I am a Sunrise girl.
I love waking up to the smell of the crisp, cold morning air, and the subtle, fading energy of late night emotions flowing through my body as it leaves my mind, just like a dream.
For so many, each morning begins with a carousel of thoughts and memories, a reminder of the decisions we have made on our life's path up to this moment. Some of those decisions keep us up at night, tossing and turning, contemplating whether or not we made the right choices in the past. Then, there are the fond memories, those enchanting moments that give us a reason to turn up the volume when that soulful song comes on the radio.
It is important to remember that every sunrise is an opportunity that awaits us, as we continue moving forward on our journey home, a choice that has yet to be made and a self-discovery that only requires you to take a step in the Light direction. What sparks joy for you?
As an Energy Healer, I am often asked by my clients, "Why am I here? What is my Purpose?" And, I have come to understand that God gives us three things: A physical body, free will and a life force.
What you choose to do with the energy flowing through your body is up to you. How you choose to live your life is up to you. The decisions that you make are yours, because you are the one that either gets to reap the benefits from them or suffer the consequences as a result. You will know if you are making good decisions, because you will feel Light and good about the outcomes. This is what Heaven feels like, when there is no other place you would rather be, than in this moment. Hell feels quite different. Hell is what we feel when poor decisions are made. It is pain and suffering, a heaviness that is hard to escape and almost always leads to an unhappy ending.
I want to surround myself with the people, places and things that perk my Spirit and feed my Soul. Every sunrise reminds me that I have another opportunity to follow my dreams, as I focus my time and energy on what I want and how I want to feel. But, how do I know if I am making the right decision? I have to trust that my desire to have a life worth living is greater than my fear of the "what ifs." What if I do not follow my heart? What if I fail? What if I end up alone?
Just remember that every Sunrise is a new beginning, and that your Purpose is to wake up every morning and to create a life worth living. Let your instincts drive your motivation and your Intuition guide you, and always keep in mind that every day wasted on fear, is a lost opportunity of living the dream.
