When you feel disappointed, who has disappointed you, beloved? It is yourself you are disappointed in. Perhaps it is you who has not maintained your integrity. It is you who did not live up to your promise. Otherwise, why would you be so dashed by someone else's doing or not doing?

You are disappointed to the degree you are disappointed because you hold yourself worthy according to the other person's implied consideration of you. Are you really responsible for what someone else lives up to or doesn't not live up to? Are you the cause of someone else's falling short?

Beloveds, I am telling you not to become distraught about what does not come true as you thought it would. Nor are you to become so inflated about what does come true. Your worth is not based on your expectations or another's. I assess your worth. I don't keep assessing it. You were given full value the moment I thought of you. You were never less than the full value I set you at. I don't care what misdemeanors you have kept about yourself. The slate is clean, beloveds. You are 100%.

This is not a free pass I give you. This is a statement of fact that every moment is new. Every minute is for the first time. We are always starting anew. How many times have I urged you to step out of the past? You are already beyond the past. Stop shoveling the past all over yourself again. In this moment, you are baptized anew.

There is no limit to the opening statements you can make. There is no limit to the chances you have. There is no limit to the changes you can make in one moment, even in this one moment. At every moment you draw on a new slate with a new piece of chalk. You can write yourself in all new.

You, who you are in this very moment, are opportune. You are on the verge of beginning anew. This is the moment when you can be whatever you want to be. In this moment, you can become the Greatness I gave you to be.

Right in this moment, you need never disappoint yourself again. You will be the majesty of you at every turn in the road. What care you what the other drivers do? Let them swerve in and out. Let them grow as they do, and you grow as you do.

Whatever you may find yourself disappointed in, no matter how innocent you are, the moment has already passed. It is in the past. That is what I am trying to tell you. Yesterday's newspaper has already gone to bed. You would never cry over spilt milk, but you are, you are crying over spilt milk now when you hang around in the past. The past is tired of your hanging around it. The past is over. Disappointment is over.

In every moment, you are rescued. Time rescues you. Rescue yourself. The very moment your heart gets singed with disappointment, step out of that moment. As soon as the last dance is finished, bow to your partner and dance the next dance. You were just dancing a waltz, and now you dance to a different rhythm and to a different song.

This is how your mind chooses other thoughts as well. You can only dance where you are now. You can only be in the space you are in now. You can only be in the time you are in now.

Despite all your blather, what does the past really have to do with you? That was then. This is now.
