We all hurt, we all have sorrows, and we all have doubts. Hurt, sorrow and doubt cannot be avoided, and we should not attempt to avoid hurt, sorrow and doubt. Hurt, sorrow and doubt are a part of us. We should embrace our hurt, our sorrow and our doubt, we should learn from our hurt, sorrow and doubt, and when we no longer need our hurt, sorrow and doubt we must let our hurt, sorrow and doubt go.

Our hurt, sorrow and doubt are not who we are, but if we bury hurt, sorrow an doubt, they become entwined in our soul, and hurt, sorrow and doubt become a part of who we are. Once buried within us, hurt, sorrow and doubt are difficult to find, and even when found, hurt, sorrow and doubt are difficult to extract. Many of us never do extract the hurt, sorrow and doubts which are buried within.

We all have doubts, we all have losses, and we all have occasional loneliness. We must not have fears. We must not have regrets. We must not carry guilt or our past mistakes within us. Fear, regret, guilt and past mistakes lead to insecurities.

We must not sleep with our problems. We must sleep on our problems. We must make our decisions with our soul. Our soul is the sum of us. We must ensure that our mind and our heart are balanced.

We must trust the instinct given to us with a faith born from experience that we have never gone wrong when we have followed our instinct, and we have always gone wrong when we do not have the courage of our convictions.

We must know ourselves and trust ourselves. We can compromise things, but we cannot compromise ourselves. We must know what is important, and we must know what does not really matter.

We all have moments when negative thoughts envelope us. We must learn from our negative thoughts, and we must lay our negative thoughts to rest. Our negative thoughts and feelings, and our past mistakes when we failed to learn, are our demons to be faced and fought and cast aside in victory.

We must respond when a friend reaches out, and we must reach out to a friend, when we perceive that we are needed. This will help us too if only to revisit a lesson. We must be content in the knowledge that we are wisely guided by advanced souls, a spirit guide, a guardian angel, past loved ones or God. We must know that the guidance is there, and that the label which we apply to the source of that guidance does not matter.
