This roll of the wheel that you call a New Year is a reminder of the newness of you. The newness of you is your eternity. All the outer revolutions of your spinning in eternity is a masquerade, a tour de force, an excursion from the infinite reality of you. Perhaps all that you surround yourself with is escape from the essence of you. You have had fear of returning to yourself, and so you have made a hunt out of it.
You seek yourself. You seek to make acquaintance with yourself, you whom you have been trying to evade. You have let yourself stay a few feet away from your recognition.
Revolve then, and you will become a circle around the world. Lay yourself across the girth of the earth. You will encase it. The tips of your fingers will touch the tips of yours toes, and so you encompass the universe. And so the universe exists within you.
You are far more than the New Year. Make celebration of the New Year a celebration of you. Look into your own eyes in another's, and make a toast to the ever-newness of life that spreads before you, infinitely opening up, revealing itself before you.
I laid out the universe like a blanket for you to sit on. I provided picnic-fare. And I invited you to sit down with Me for life. You sit with no one else. This is the reality. All attend Our picnic, but there is only you and I, you and I, you and I. I serve you, and you serve Me, and We are One, the server and the served. In between Us is a only a moment of serving.
But no servitude.
The New Year is a proclamation of freedom.
Raise your glass for the fun of it to the joy of Us.
And do this every day.
Every day is the New Year, and every day is a celebration of freedom.
You can make this day what you will.
Even if your feet are nailed to the ground, you can rise above where you are situated.
Do not let anything limit you.
Not the past, not the present, for the present contains an enormous vacuum for you to fill. A vacuum is not a gulf. Today connects you to yourself. Leap into today. Pluck today. Give yourself a gift of today.
Resolutions are a putting off, and now you put off nothing. Resolutions say you have to command yourself. No, all you have to do is to allow yourself. You do not have to write yourself in. Resolutions are like dragging your past into the present. They say that you have not been something, but now you will be, as if effort brings you to yourself.
If you must resolve something, resolve to be you. Resolve to be open to your greatness. You do not have to impose it upon yourself. You do not have to get it from somewhere. You do not have to muster it. You just have to accept it, the wondrousness of you, the wonderment of you.
Any resolve you make to do this or that is another discouragement of yourself. You do not have to prove anything to yourself. You do not have to prove improvement. There is nothing to improve but your image of yourself. Approve.
Let your concept of yourself come first, and all else will follow. Look not so much to improve yourself as to encourage yourself.
Notice your goodness. Write that down. Wave the light of your love around yourself. Let yourself be seen in your light. Roll yourself in My light, and you will revolve the universe at a higher frequency.
