Yesterday and perhaps most of last year it may have seemed that hate won. That hate had somehow taken over our country and normally good, intelligent people had decided that hate gave them more power than love. We however saw the power of love emerge out of the incredible chaos that yesterday hate had created. And as we awaken to a new day, as our country awakens from its four year slumber filled with hate and anger, we too can awaken to the fact that hate only destroys and is never the foundation of growth or forward motion. In fact, hate cannot produce anything positive whether it’s us doing the hating of ourselves, or whether we’re hating on other people, things, places… it just is not possible. Hate produces more hate, plain and simple. So, today begin to be the light in your world by stop hating on yourself. If you and I let go of our hate for ourselves, our government, other people, our own lack of progress, whatever hate we’re projecting, we can begin to find more peace and love in our world. If we let go of hate, beginning with ourselves, then we will begin to create a ripple effect from our loving hearts. Today, let go of your fear and return to love because we cannot hate ourselves into the version we want to become or to create the world that we desire.

Just for today, I let go of all fear and doubt and Life becomes simple and easy for me. I recognize that it is my mind that creates my experiences and that I am unlimited in my own ability to create the good in my life. I have faith in the unlimited loving power of the Universe. I am safe and Life supports me in every possible way. All is truly well in my world and everything is always working out for my highest good. And so it is.
