			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Although, it definitely may not seem so for the young medium, who constantly has ghosts around him, or even for the young clairvoyant, who is constantly seeing negative images, gifts are just that &#8211; gifts, and are never, ever a curse.<br />
<br />
The law of attraction intensely applies to those who have spiritual gifts of any nature. It is extremely important, that you stay positive, if you want to be able to help others in a positive way. When the metaphysically gifted person becomes negative, all that can be seen or felt is negative.<br />
<br />
Staying positive does not mean, however, that you will never see, experience, feel, or otherwise receive negative information, as we are given information in order to help. This is why learning the arts of grounding and detachment are essential to the well being of those who find themselves with gifts seemingly beyond their control. Learning techniques that help one ground themselves and detach themselves from the stream of information they receive is what brings more control.<br />
<br />
Fear is the number one negative emotion that must be worked through. Being fearful, brings more to fear, as any other emotion constantly felt brings more of the same. Learning detachment and grounding will help in this area, but most important is to realize there is nothing to fear. The visions and feelings do not belong to you, and the ghosts are not here to frighten you. Compassion is the key.<br />

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Often, we may look back on situations, and find ourselves saying, &#8220;If I had just done this, then maybe this would have happened instead.&#8221;<br />
<br />
While it is important to evaluate our choices and learn and grow from them, it is equally important to move past the choices we have made. The lesson needs to be taken, and the experience needs to be let go. We are here with free will, and to make choices through the manifestation of our thoughts to learn and grow through.<br />
<br />
Had we not made the choices we made, what then, would there be to learn and grow through?<br />
<br />
Take what you have here and now &#8211; the outcome &#8211; and grow from here. You can only start with now, as there is no future yet, and the past is gone. Make sure what you are doing right here and now, is creating a better situation for you.<br />
<br />
The first place to start is by looking within. What speaks to your soul? Perhaps you love working with wood, and find you create from somewhere deep within you when you are given an opportunity to work with wood. Or maybe you are naturally drawn to children, and find being around them and helping and teaching them gives you a deep satisfaction.<br />
<br />
Whatever arena it may be in, find your calling and follow your inner spirit. Learn to harness the power of your thoughts, and how to create your true life. Through living that true life, your life will have enormous power to bless others along your journey, including yourself.<br />

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Never miss an opportunity to tell someone how special they are to you and how they have enhanced your life.<br />
<br />
So, often, the grief of losing a loved one can be so overwhelming simply because we did not take the opportunity to tell them how we felt about them. We grieve deeply for that regret, and that fear that our loved one didn&#8217;t know just how special they were to us.<br />
<br />
Let me assure you. They know. They are still with you and are still very much a part of your life. They love you and they want you to be at peace.<br />
<br />
You can still tell them. They can hear you.<br />
<br />
It is for our own sakes, that we share our feelings with others while we have the opportunity to do so, as well as for our loved ones.<br />

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>There is absolutely nothing you can do about decisions and choices you have made in the past. The past is gone. You must let it go. By dwelling on it, one can border insanity.<br />
<br />
Living in the past prevents you from building a future for yourself, and ultimately dooms you to repeat the experiences you have labeled as your mistakes over and over. To break the chain, you must realize your mistakes, learn from them, and set them free.<br />
<br />
There is growth in every situation, however, if you continue to relive the past over and over, you are robbing yourself of any growth that can and should occur from the choices you have made. Every experience is an opportunity to learn and grow, even those you deem as having been negative experiences or regretful to you in some way.<br />
<br />
The choices you have made do not necessarily define who you are or even your character, but outline situations your higher self has chosen for you to learn and grow through.<br />
<br />
Know you did the very best you could do in the circumstances you were in. Forgive yourself if you must. Realize what you could have done differently, and move on, releasing yourself of any further obligation to the events you are allowing to hold you hostage!<br />
<br />
Turn the negative into a positive by being grateful for the opportunity to learn and grow through your choices and emotions, instead of condemning yourself because you feel the choices you made were mistakes.<br />
<br />
To everything there is a reason. Even the past.<br />
