We Need To Choose It

As we are moving along the Path to Freedom, setting ourselves free to more and more consciously participate in the unfolding of our lives, we need to become aware that we are all 100% responsible for our lives. No one else can live our lives for us and no one else can choose for us.

In other words, if we wish to experience the good of our heart's desires, be it a particular outcome or a quality, we need to choose it. We, and only we can make the choice to begin to move in that direction and unless we choose it, nothing is going to change in our lives.

I invite you to join me as we explore this.

Blessings and welcome to the path to freedom,

This beautiful path,

This wonderful path,

This amazing path where we get to set ourselves free,

Where we get to release,

Let go of that which no longer serves,

Where we get to allow for the next great and grand version of who we are to emerge,

Where we get to allow for that ever-expanding love and joy and peace and harmony and all the goodies,

Wholeness,

Beauty,

Abundance to emerge,

To well up from within us,

And where we get to set ourselves free to soar,

To shine,

To glow,

Where we get to set ourselves free to forever expand our consciousness and raise our vibration,

Thus allowing for more and more and more and more and more and more and more of the good that we wish to experience to emerge into our experience or well up from within us,

To emerge from within us.

So this is such a beautiful path and I'm so so happy and so so grateful that I get to be on this path and I am very grateful that you are choosing to join me on this path,

That we get to walk this path together,

That we get to do this work together,

Even though we may be in different geographical areas or different time zones and even if we're tuning into this at different times,

We're still tuning into space,

We're still tuning into a field,

We're still tuning into a space where we get to support one another,

Where we get to inspire one another,

Where we get to assist one another.

There's a beautiful saying that goes,

High tide lifts all boats,

So what that means is that as even one of us is having a realization,

An insight,

As even one of us is expanding our consciousness or raising our vibration,

That affects the whole,

Because there is only one whole,

There is only one consciousness,

There is only one field.

So the work that we're doing on ourselves,

Within ourselves,

It absolutely affects all of us.

So that is beautiful.

So thank you for doing your part,

Which is assisting me in such a beautiful way and affecting me in such a magnificent and amazing way.

I don't think I said it,

But my name is Daniel Roqueo and the topic for today is,

We need to choose it.

We need to choose it.

And this has to do with,

This topic has emerged out of conversations that I'm having with individuals that are giving voice to and they're sharing that they would like for different experiences to emerge into their lives.

They would like for changes to happen in their lives.

They would like for transformation to happen in their lives.

But they are not really moving and choosing,

In particular,

In alignment with these experiences.

But they are sort of hoping and wishing for these new conditions and circumstances just come magically flying through thin air and just landing in their laps,

Just popping into their lives,

Just sprouting from nowhere.

And we always get to have the conversation.

I always reference the three principles of transformation that states,

The first one states that if we want anything to change,

If we want anything to change in our lives,

We need to change.

That's the first principle of transformation.

The second principle of transformation states that unless we change,

Nothing is going to change.

If we stay the same,

Nothing is going to change.

And then the third principle states that when we begin to change,

Everything begins to change.

It speaks once again into the truth that there is only one whole.

So we cannot just change a little bit in one area of our lives without it affecting and without it rolling over or spilling over to every aspect,

Every area of our lives.

When we begin to change,

Everything begins to change.

But coming back to the first principle,

We absolutely need to change.

We absolutely need to begin to make new choices.

We need to choose it.

If we want to experience a greater sense of peace,

For instance,

Then we need to choose to experience a greater sense of peace.

We need to make choices that are in alignment with that greater sense of peace.

No one else can choose it for us.

No one else can choose it for us,

But we need to.

And this is the liberation.

This is the liberating part of this whole thing,

This whole idea of freedom,

That we in every single moment,

In any single moment,

Any given moment,

Have the opportunity,

Have the power,

Have the possibility to make a new choice.

And I still remember so vividly sitting out on the deck last year,

Last summer,

I was looking out over the fields and I was,

A bird that came flying caught my attention.

And so as I was sitting there,

I began to just observe,

Just watch the bird as it was flying.

And if I remember correctly,

And I may not,

But if I am remembering correctly,

It was one of these beautiful summer days when the sky was clear blue.

There was no,

Not a cloud on the sky at all.

It was just the sun and it was just a blue,

Beautiful blue sky.

And this bird came flying across the sky,

Over the fields,

Across the fields,

And it was flying in a straight line.

And all of a sudden,

What seemed to me as all of a sudden,

I have obviously no idea of knowing what was going on in the bird's mind.

Maybe the bird had it all mapped out since,

I don't know,

Like hours before.

I don't know.

And it doesn't really matter.

But it seemed to me as though all of a sudden,

The bird just turned and took off in a completely new direction.

It didn't just slightly turn.

It was not a few degrees of turning,

But it was like 90 degrees or 100 or 120 degrees.

It didn't turn completely to fly back the way it had come,

But it was a full on turn.

And it was such a beautiful reminder that just as that bird,

All of a sudden,

What seemed to be all of a sudden,

Mid-flight decided to just take off in a new direction.

That the same volition,

The same freedom is inherently within us to make a new choice in any given moment.

It doesn't matter what kind of choices we've been making up until this moment.

Our past does not matter.

Our lineage does not matter.

Our genetics does not matter.

They do not matter.

It does not matter if our family's history is one of making this kind of choice.

The moment we make a new choice,

The moment we begin to say yes to something differently,

The moment we make a new choice,

A higher choice,

Our whole lives begin to change in that one moment.

But we need to choose it.

It is not going to choose itself.

The new experiences,

What we wish to experience,

What we wish for our lives to be about,

They're not going to choose this for themselves,

But we need to choose them.

And unless we choose it,

Unless we begin to say yes to it,

And unless we begin to move in that direction,

Nothing is going to change.

The thing with most,

I'm not going to say most,

I did say most,

Let me retract that.

The thing with many of us humans is that we are just sitting around waiting for that perfect condition.

We're waiting for all of our ducks to line themselves up,

For the perfect conditions to just emerge into our lives before we make that choice.

We're waiting for something.

We're procrastinating,

Waiting,

Waiting,

Waiting,

And those perfect conditions,

They're not going to,

They're not going to appear.

They're not going to reveal themselves.

That's not how these sacred laws work.

They do not put the cart before the horse,

But the horse needs to come before the cart.

Consciousness,

Our consciousness,

Individually,

Collectively,

Consciousness always precedes form,

Which means that we need to make the choice first.

We need to make the choice first.

We need to say yes to the new first before it can begin to emerge.

So it is all on us.

It is all on us.

And as we have this beautiful mind,

As we've been gifted with this beautiful ability to think independently of any and all conditions and circumstances,

It means that in any given moment we have the ability to make that choice.

We have the ability,

Just like that bird,

To take off in a new direction,

To say yes to something different in our lives,

Regardless of how long we've been on this planet,

Regardless of every single choice that we've ever made up until this point.

These sacred laws,

They are immutable.

They are impersonal.

They don't care about our past.

They don't care about history.

All they care about is in this now moment and what we are offering,

What we are,

What message we are sending in this now moment,

The choices that we are making in this now moment,

The vibration that we are taking on in this now moment.

That's all they care about.

The moment if we're standing in front of a mirror,

The moment we change our poses,

The moment we,

Let's say that we're holding,

I'm always prone to use a red balloon or a blue balloon or a candle.

Let's go with something different.

Let's say that we're holding a rose in our hand,

In our left hand.

We are standing in front of a mirror and the image that we will see in the mirror is us holding a red rose,

Because it is a red rose in this case.

We're holding a red rose in our left hand,

In our left hand.

That's the image that we'll see in the mirror.

The moment we decide to put the rose down and pick up a white tulip,

In that moment that we actually begin to put the rose down,

That's the moment where the image will begin to change in the mirror.

The reflection will begin to change in that mirror.

Us wishing to see a different reflection is not going to make any difference at all.

Our hoping to see a different reflection is not going to make any difference at all.

It is not until we begin to move in the direction of actually changing the image in the mirror that the reflection,

That the image in the mirror will begin to change.

This is all very obvious.

I know it is.

And yet we get stuck on making it complicated.

We get stuck on feeling the need to have it all figured out,

To have a plan,

To see how it is going to happen.

How is the manifestation going to happen?

How am I going to move from here to there?

We will never know how.

We will never ever know every step of the way.

We will know exactly what we need to know in each and every single moment to take the next step,

And the next step,

And the next step,

But we will not see,

We will not have the complete map.

It will reveal itself as we begin to choose,

As we make that choice to begin to move in a new direction.

But we need to choose it,

And we need to choose it now.

Not necessarily now,

Why not now?

Which is a topic for another day.

If not now,

Then when?

Or simply,

Why not now?

Why not make that choice now?

Whatever the good that we wish to experience,

If we are not moving in that direction now,

Why not make that choice now?

Why wait around for God knows,

Before we make that choice?

We have the absolute freedom,

We have the absolute mandate,

It is our prerogative to make that choice now.

We need to make it,

No one else can make it for us,

We need to make it,

Why not now?

Why not now begin to move in the direction of the good that we desire?

Whatever that may be,

That long lost dream that we perhaps had previously,

That we at some point just discarded because we couldn't see the how,

Because we bought into the belief that it is not possible.

It is not possible for this to come into fruition,

It is not possible for me to make it happen,

Which is a huge stumbling block for many of us humans.

We believe that it is up to us to make it happen,

It is not,

We've talked about it so many times,

It is not,

We're not making any of it happen,

We're allowing it to happen,

We are participating in the happening,

Just as any seed in nature is participating in the unfoldment of that seed,

But the lilac seed is not making the lilac bush happen,

The apple seed is not making the apple tree happen,

The mother is not making the baby happen,

There is a field of emergence that needs to be preceded by a yes,

A seed in nature inherently has a yes built into it,

A seed cannot say no,

I'm not going to do that,

No,

I'm not going to allow for this to manifest,

But there is a built in yes in all of nature,

In all of nature.

We have a built in no,

In many cases,

Many of us have a built in no,

Uh-uh,

Uh-uh,

I'm not going to go there,

I'm not going to do that,

I'm afraid,

I'm worried,

I'm too,

I'm not enough of this,

I'm not enough of that,

Or I'm too,

Too much of this,

Or too much of that,

So I'm not going to do it,

I'm not going to say yes to it,

I'm not going to,

I'm not even going to entertain the possibility of it,

I'm just going to toss it away,

Bury it,

Now is the time to unbury it,

Now is the time to bring it back,

To say yes to it,

To choose it,

If not now,

Then when,

If not,

If,

Why not now?

So the invitation for us is to really become aware of which dreams,

Which possibilities,

Which visions,

Intentions have we discarded on account of fear,

Worry,

Doubt,

On account of not being able to see how,

On account of feeling that we are not enough,

Or that we are too much of this or that,

And the invitation,

Or the questions,

The questions to ask is why not now?

Why not now?

And as we ask these questions,

We're invited once again,

Invited to become aware of the excuses,

The stories,

The beliefs,

The narratives of impossibility,

As to why not to make this choice now.

And once we do become aware,

We are now given the opportunity to release our attachment to these stories,

To set ourselves free from these beliefs,

From these stories,

To set ourselves free to make this choice now,

To begin to say yes to it,

To begin to move in that direction,

So that we may move deeper and more steeped into being conscious participants,

Conscious co-creators of our lives,

Not making anything happen,

But allowing for that which is happening to happen,

Making it welcome to emerge in us and through us.

I love being on this path,

My goodness.

I absolutely love being on this path,

And thank you so,

So much for joining me,

Thank you so,

So much for choosing to set yourself free,

For choosing freedom,

For choosing consciously,

For choosing bravely,

For choosing courageously now,

In this now moment.

Until we meet again,

Before we meet again,

I invite you to share this with anyone who you feel might benefit from hearing this,

From participating in this conversation,

And then until we meet again,

I bless,

Bless,

Bless our days,

And I bless,

Bless,

Bless our ways,

Knowing absolutely that all is well,

That something wonderful is happening,

That everything is working for our highest good,

That perfect preparation is happening,

That perfect unfolding is happening,

Always,

Always,

Always.

With much love,

Many blessings,

Namaste.
