Think about something that happened to you in the last few days. Imagine yourself standing in front of your mural with your palette & your brushes at that very spot on your canvas where that incident occurred. Now imagine that place on the canvas is blank & you get to paint over it, you get a do-over. Only this time you are going to choose more consciously, more intentionally, how you wish the events to unfold so they may be represented on your canvas of life.

And from this place of peace and tranquility,

We now call upon Shaltazar,

Keeper of the Secrets of the Universe,

The Gavi Shvaninu,

To come forth and share with us the wisdom of the ages.

We are here with you now and forever.

Our love for you is unconditional.

Know that,

For it is your truth.

You may have forgotten what unconditional love feels like because you have been removed from your true essence for a while.

Some of you we know are working diligently to connect to that essence and we applaud you and we thank you for your effort.

For when you do so,

Not only are you helping yourself,

But you are aiding,

Assisting,

And increasing the vibration of the collective consciousness.

You may not realize the effect you are having on those around you and those that you don't even know continents away.

But let us assure you,

For we know and we see beyond your seeing that the efforts you are making to find your essence,

To remember who you truly are,

Are having an effect on your planet.

And we hear some of you cry out to us,

It sure does not feel like that to us.

The ride seems bumpier at times.

The curves and twists and turns in the road are causing us much anguish,

Much anxiety and much trepidation.

So help us explain,

Help us understand how this world is getting better.

When we see the hatred,

When we see the killing,

When we see the things that are happening even in the environment,

How can you tell us that the work we are doing in our spiritual journey is having an effect?

And we say to you dear ones,

It is because you only see with your eyes.

But do not worry,

The energy of your planet is changing and there is an opportunity for you to see beyond what appears in the physical.

Once again many of you are working on connecting to the invisible world.

We know because we have communicated with you,

You may not know it is us,

But let us assure you whoever you think you are talking to,

An angel,

A guy,

An ascended master,

God itself,

You are talking to us for we are connected.

On this side of the veil we are all connected.

And for those of you that are having a bit of a bumpy ride these days,

We ask you to be patient,

We ask you to stay calm,

Stay determined to remain on your path,

On your spiritual path.

Don't give up on the principles that you have learned just because they do not appear to be manifesting as quickly as you would like them to be doing so.

And so we have come here tonight in the season of giving,

In this season of celebrating,

For no matter what your religious or spiritual beliefs,

Much of the world as it approaches this time of year,

The end of the calendar year as many know it,

Is a time for giving,

A time for celebration.

And in this world that has become so consumed with gifts and possessions and buying,

We have for you this evening a gift.

We cannot tell you that we went out on Black Friday to buy it for you because we would not stand in those lines.

No,

Our gift that we have for you is something that cannot be bought in a store.

As a matter of fact,

The gift that we have for you,

You have always had.

Many of you have just forgotten.

And so maybe we are just giving you the gift of remembering.

And we hope that the perspective we bring you will help you appreciate and learn to use this gift in a more meaningful way.

Because although we would like to tell you that the ride is going to get smooth from here on in,

We cannot.

We can tell you that the direction you are headed is in a very positive one.

That for many years now the collective consciousness has made the choice for human beings to continue in existence.

Armageddon is no longer a choice.

But as we move to a smoother ride,

We hope that this gift will serve you well.

And we feel your anticipation.

Just like when you were a child and mommy and daddy said we got a present for you and you couldn't wait to tear off the wrapping,

The excitement of a gift.

And so we will not prolong your anticipation.

We shall reveal to you as we take off the gift wrapping and look inside the box.

And your angels,

Your guides,

The invisible beings that many of you have begun to communicate with are here to tell you that we are giving you the gift that we shall call the power of choice.

And you say to us,

Well we always knew we had the power of choice.

This is the planet of free choice.

Why do you give us something that is so obvious?

And we say to you because you have forgotten,

You have lost,

You have diminished your personal power of choice.

And we hear you say,

How do you know that?

Why is that so obvious to you?

And we say,

Look around at your life.

Are you happy?

Are you joyous?

Are you gleeful?

How are you handling the bumps in the road?

How are you handling when the journey hastens and when the journey feels heavy?

And we hear you say,

We're doing the best we can,

But are you really using your power of choice?

It is the greatest gift that human beings have.

It is not required in the spirit world,

For there is no duality as there is on planet earth.

You see the principle of duality and the principle of free choice go hand in hand.

Source created them so it could know itself better.

So reflect for a moment.

Have you really been using your power of choice to your greatest good and the greatest good of all concern?

When someone does something to you or says something to you that hurts you,

Are you calling upon your power of choice to decide intentionally,

Consciously how you will respond?

Or do you allow yourself to respond from the conditioned beliefs that were handed down to you?

Let us imagine that your life is a mural,

A giant mural that began when you incarnated into human form and will end when you transition out of human form.

The breadth of this mural,

Of this canvas is very wide because it takes in not only you but the circle of beings that intersect with your life.

The family,

The friends,

The acquaintances,

The people you met when you were going to school,

Whether you knew someone for a minute or you knew someone for a lifetime,

They are there with you on your mural of life.

And you say,

Okay,

We understand that.

So what is your point?

And the point we wish to make is have you given away your power to create that mural called my life to others?

Have you abrogated your responsibility as the creative director of that mural?

Have you allowed others to paint what they wanted on your mural?

So we ask you to consider with this gift that we are reminding you that you have always had,

That no matter what happens to you,

You have a choice on how you respond.

The human saying that the cup is either half full or half empty is well known to many of you.

And we ask you to think about something that has happened to you in the last few days and imagine you standing in front of your mural with your palette and your brushes and imagine painting that scene the way it occurred.

And now,

But for a brief moment,

Move back in time and imagine that place on the canvas is blank again.

And you get to paint over.

You get a do-over,

So to speak.

Only this time you are going to choose more consciously,

More intentionally how you wish the events to unfold so they may be represented on your canvas of life.

Think of all of the times that you forgot that gift that we are reminding you of today,

That you forgot the power of choice.

Do you walk around talking about the cup half empty?

Do you complain?

Do you blame?

Do you procrastinate?

Do you make excuses?

Or do you use your power fully and consciously choose to make the best of every situation that comes your way?

For no matter what influence other human beings have on you,

No matter what influence the invisible world has on you,

It is you in your human body that will choose how you respond.

Begin to use your gift more wisely.

Begin to become more conscious,

More aware.

Don't let life paint your mural.

Take back your power and become the creative director,

The master painter,

The master artist.

Begin in your power and choose differently.

And we would like to suggest to you that if you practice using this gift that we have reminded you of,

And we are sorry to disappoint you when you got so excited that you thought you were getting something new,

But it is new,

It is just old but new again.

And so begin to imagine,

Begin to dream what you want the canvas to look like.

Begin to realize that every brush stroke is yours to decide.

And when others begin to throw black paint on your canvas,

Banish them,

Create boundaries and tell them they are not welcome on your mural.

This is your life,

Why not live it in a way that you wish to create it?

And we would ask you to stand with us now in front of your mural at the point in linear time that you would describe as now,

This present moment.

Look to the left of your mural and depending on your physical age,

It may be longer for some and shorter for others.

But look at that mural and realize that the canvas is full.

You may not like the colors,

You may not like the patterns,

But the canvas is full.

Even in the times you did nothing,

The canvas has been painted.

And now we ask you to take a deep breath and look to the right side of your mural.

And what you will see is a blank canvas.

The physical realm,

Time is linear.

The past is gone,

The future has not yet occurred.

Look at that white canvas,

Look at that blank mural and begin to get excited because as you invoke this gift of the power of choice,

You begin to realize that no matter where you are in life,

No matter what physical age you are,

The rest of that canvas is available for your creation.

And human life is such that if you try to look to the end of the canvas,

You will not be able to see when it ends.

And that is by design and a discussion for another time.

But let us assure you that in terms of life that you have to live in this human expression,

There is much.

Now once again,

Look to the left and see what happens when you allow life to paint your mural.

And now look to the right and get excited.

Please get excited with this gift that we have reminded you of,

The gift of personal choice,

The power of you choosing in every moment of every day how you wish to create your life.

Do you wish to create a negative,

Pessimistic view of life?

Or do you wish to create an optimistic,

Positive way of life?

And we say to you,

If you choose to be pessimistic and negative,

We love you just the same.

And if that makes you content,

Then by all means,

Create your canvas with darker colors.

But do it.

We beg you,

Do it of your own choosing,

Not the choosing of others.

And so at this time of giving,

We hope in some small way,

You will appreciate this gift that we have reminded you of,

The power of choice.

Will you be able to tomorrow go out and use this power to your greatest benefit?

Of course the answer is no.

You have forgotten.

It is like getting the Jedi sword with great power.

The first time you lift it,

You will not know how to wield it moving forward.

We use the image of the sword,

Not to say that life is a battle.

We use the image of the sword to talk of power.

And so the power of personal choice exists in every moment.

You have it in this moment,

You have it in the next moment,

And you have it in the next moment.

Unless you are willing to slow down your life,

Slow down your mind,

Become more mindful,

Become more conscious,

You will not be able to effectively use your power of choice.

And we know so many of you have been used to giving away that power of choice.

The ability to be decisive and discerning is difficult for you.

Whether you willfully gave up that power of choice or others took it away from you,

Many of you are content to let others make choices for you.

Please keep in mind that no choice is a choice.

And if you are okay with no choice and allowing someone else to make it for you,

As long as that has been mindful,

As long as that has been conscious,

Then that's all that counts.

And we hope years from now,

And for all of you we hope that is years and years and years in physical terms,

When you take a moment to look at your canvas,

Your mural,

From this point,

This point today,

Into the future.

As you look back on what is now the future,

Which eventually will be your past,

We hope,

We hope you will have a smile on your face.

We hope that there will be a sense of contentment in your heart.

We hope you will have appreciated the choices that you made in creating the canvas of your life.

Please know that we have given you this gift this evening out of love.

There is no judgment associated with it.

For whether you choose to use your gift,

The power of choice,

Or not,

Please know you are loved by us and by the source itself.

Our love for you is everlasting and unconditional.
