Advice from a friend

Here's what I would tell myself if I were my best friend talking to me.

It's going to be ok. Going somewhere else is not going to make you happy, but sometimes you do need a break and sometimes you may also need to switch the situation. You are okay. As you become more and more conscious, you are becoming aware of more and more in yourself that does not work or serve you . That small voice in your head that says you are doing it wrong, backwards, not good enough; you don't need to heed that voice any longer. You hear it now, so it is loosing it's power. It may feel really tough right now, like you don't want to go on, or you can't. It is worth it. You will see, one day you will look back, and that day will be soon. You will know it was all worthwhile and you will think about how those were some of the best times of your life. Not because they were easy and fun, but because you got to know yourself and you got to grow through it all. Sometimes you feel very alone, and you wish you had someone there to talk to. You do, always, you can always talk to me. I am your best friend, I am you, I am your highest self, I am your guru. You are never alone. It's going to be all right. Just take it one step at a time, one day at a time and love yourself. No matter who does or doesn't, love yourself and know that you deserve always to be happy. Don't let anyone's words or actions convince you otherwise. You are a child of God and to that extent, you are always entitled to joy and peace. Follow that still voice in your heart but make sure it is that still voice. Then, when you hear it, listen to it and don't sacrifice it for anyone. That is my advice to you my dear friend.
