Greetings, dear ones, from the Brotherhood of Light. As always, we surround and protect you with great love from the nonphysical realms. The new year of 2015 rolls in with the potential for new possibilities and opportunities. We urge you to focus on your goals, enjoy every day, and to not weigh yourselves down with all that could have or should have happened by now. Don't live in the past, for you rob yourselves of your present moments and future life.

Forgiveness and Unconditional Love

Love is the best healing tool you have. Start with self-love; that is the most important. Otherwise, you will only attract the conditional love you had in your past. Yes, love yourself, no matter what — no matter what happened before, what you did, or what was done to you. The path to loving yourself unconditionally is forgiveness. Forgive it all, and you will free yourself completely from the negative burdens of the past.

Yes, forgiving yourself is a huge step. Surround yourself with unconditional love like the love from your children and for your children. If they are grown and gone, adopt a pet! Puppies and kittens are wonderful fun, and the joy and laughter they bring into your life cannot be measured. If that requires too much energy, consider adopting a rescued animal. There is no greater joy than rescuing an animal who has had a difficult life. The love they offer, no matter what their age, has no boundaries. Even if you have allergies, there are breeds with no dander. Don't find excuses to limit your life experiences, for time is traveling far too quickly to delay or disregard that which you need most. You will find that your priorities are shifting, and what you once considered important means little now. The acquisition of things means less and less for those of you who are awakened and aware.
