DIVINE BALANCE BETWEEN MORE AND LESS

“The power for creating a better future is contained in the present moment: You create a good future by creating a good present.” Eckhart Tolle
We’ve come a long way, baby! Just a little over a hundred years ago, 21 people died in a molasses flood. No, that’s not a typo. It happened in Boston in January 1919 on an unusually warm January day. There were 2.3 million gallons of molasses stored in a tank that burst, sending 12,000 tons of molasses through Boston’s north end. As I thought of the immense loss that happened, especially the loss of lives and over 150 people who were injured, I had a moment of great gratitude for the current technological advances. At that time, there was not a phone in every home, no cellphones, no computers or tablets, and no warning sirens as it happened so quickly. As much as we sometimes rail against all our gadgets, we are at a much higher advantage in having them than not. In today’s world, our true challenge is practicing mindful self-mastery—choosing not to be ruled by technology, but instead seeking a sacred balance between screen time and soul time, nurturing deeper connections with our loved ones, and honoring the divine within ourselves.
Dear Angels, so many of us spend our days replaying the past or rehearsing the future, rarely pausing to sit in the richness of now. What if that “better future” we long for isn’t somewhere out there, waiting for us to catch up to it? What if it begins here, right now, with a single choice to be fully present – to take time to set aside our modern day gadgets for moments of introspection and divine connection. We can certainly learn from the past and seek solutions that will make our lives better and safer, but now is where peace lives. Now is where we hear the whispers of our angels, feel the gentle nudges of our soul, and plant seeds of light that grow into our tomorrow.
Dear Ones, you don’t have to have it all figured out to make an impact. You just have to be here, now, with your heart open. That’s where the magic begins. The truth is, the future is built one breath at a time. One thought, one act of love, one shift in perspective. The moment you decide to show up with kindness, with gratitude, with clarity—that is the moment you begin building a better tomorrow. When you begin to treat each moment as sacred—each word spoken, each smile offered, each breath drawn—you become conscious co-creators of a beautiful reality. Take a deep breath. Feel your feet on the earth. Invite peace into your awareness. This moment is your point of power, your place of transformation. When you bring love into the now, you carry it into all the tomorrows.
Angels Whisper: Do not chase the light—you are the light. Every time you choose peace over worry, love over fear, presence over distraction, you shape the future with grace. Trust in the power of this moment. We are walking with you, guiding you home to your radiant truth.
Today, I promise to be more grateful for the blessings in my life and appreciate the power of staying present.
