Ambrose: “Let us begin. Good morning, JoiLin. It is I, Ambrose, your teacher who loves you.

“I would like to speak to you today regarding a person’s ability to overcome emotional trauma, or personal disappointment on any level. Emotional trauma, once it is brought to the surface, and recognized, may be dealt with in much the same way that everyday personal disappointments may be dealt with. That is, to recognize the disappointment, the part we played in whatever interaction took place, and to acknowledge as fact our responsibility in either accepting or rejecting the opportunity. And this can apply both to those times when we are the recipient of disappointment from another person, as well as when we are the initiator of disappointment for another.

“Recognize your responsibility, accept your free-will decision, and forgive either yourself, or the other person, and then simply let it go. Do not hug these things close to your heart. Let the wind of spring blow them away. They are no longer necessary; they have no purpose other than to weigh you down in a quagmire of self-pity or feelings of guilt, neither of which is beneficial to your spiritual growth. They are both spiritual poisons, as you well know by now, and deserve no more fitting place than to be thrown out with the refuse of each day’s living.

“This, of course, is a learned skill. At first, many people learn to hold on to the disappointments of life, as well as the joys of life. We must now go about learning to let go, to discard those things detrimental to our spiritual growth. Once this skill is achieved, and has become an ongoing practice, you will feel as if the weight of the world has been lifted from your shoulders.

You will feel physically lighter, and, in fact, you will be. Light cannot live where there is darkness. If you allow the Father’s Light, the Father’s Love to fill your being, it will in fact help in this letting go process. It is a paradox that as light cannot live where there is darkness, neither can darkness live where there is Light.

“Filling yourself with the Father’s Love, His Light, will in fact cause an expulsion of those things held within your memory that were better left in the past.

“You want to accomplish everything at once. You must know, dear child, that these new skills with which you are learning to live your life all take time to become an integral part of your being. It takes time, perseverance, commitment, and, above all, consistency. All of which is developed and added to with each day’s living.

“You will not be perfect, child, not in this lifetime. So do not expect yourself to be so. You will forget, you will stumble, and you will make mistakes. All growth has within it some or all of these components.

“Life on your planet is hard work, but you will one day look back and understand that never again will you know quite the same level of excitement, as you were able to know on your planet of nativity. Recognizing the uniqueness of your planet now, can add much to your ability to find pleasure and enjoyment in everyday mundane existence.

“Each moment lived within the moment, and shared with the Father, with Michael (Jesus), the Supreme Being, or even shared simply with your personal teacher, or your Seraphic Guardians, can be a moment in time like no other. Each moment lived in such a way enlarges our capacity to share, to give, to be open to our Father, and to all of the help He has made available to us.

“Think on this child, as you go about your day. Each moment is an individual moment, an innocent moment in which you, within your free-will domain, have the choice of opening your heart and sharing with your Father, with your Creator, as well as having the choice not to. Each time you choose to do so enlarges that area within you that may be filled with His Light.

“Do not grieve or chastise yourself over all the many moments you forget to do so, but give yourself credit for each moment that you do open yourself to this. Go now child, remembering always your Father’s love for you, as well as that of your teachers who love and guide you. Shalom.”
