Welcome to Love Notes from Rhonda.

And today, if you practice or celebrate Christmas, today is Christmas Eve.

And if you don't, the message still applies.

Because today's message is your place in the world.

What is your place in the world?

Which brings me to the question, who are you?

I bet you've asked yourself in some way, shape or form, who am I?

Probably more than once.

Who am I?

Who am I?

Well, you are the infinite being of the stars.

You are the very essence of life itself.

You are love incarnate.

You are God's chosen one.

You are the light of the world.

You are all of those things.

And you are also your preferences and your desires and your opinions.

How you grew up, where you live, the culture in which you inhabit, everything about your life from the moment you were conceived until now.

That too adds up to who you are.

But there's a third part of who you are, and that is who you decide to be.

And I believe that when you say, who am I?

And you look at your past and the history of what made you and how you got to where you are today, that's one path.

That's one view of who you are.

The other view, that you are the stars itself, that you are the light of the universe, that you are everything to everything, that you are the chosen one.

That, too, is true.

And usually there is that third path, that path that connects you from the past to that knowingness, to that real, true knowingness.

That you are enough.

That you are the essence of all, that you are love itself, that you are the chosen one, that you are all in all, there is a bridge.

And that is where you decide who you are, decide how you want to show up, decide what you want to say, decide where you want to go.

And today, on this Christmas Eve, I invite a miracle to come forth.

Just like they say in the Bible that Mary was a miracle that gave birth to Jesus, that she was a virgin and yet was pregnant.

Whether you believe that or not, I invite you to take the essence of what it means.

It's basically asking you to believe in miracles, asking you to believe in things unseen.

And when you're willing to embrace things unseen, it gives you more courage to decide who you are, decide what your values are, decide how you want to show up in the world.

And please don't choose perfect, because perfect is just going to get you trapped.

And that's always, always chosen out of fear.

Now, if you want to say perfectly you, that's okay.

But to be perfect, it's going to get you in a whole mess of trouble.

So who are you?

You are your past.

You are the history of every decision you've ever made, every decision you didn't think you made, but you did.

Every experience you've ever had, every mistake you've ever made, every encounter with another human being or anything on this planet that is part of who you are.

And yet you are also the divine.

You are also light.

You are also the chosen one.

You are also love itself.

So let's use that third.

That third you, which is you get to decide who you are, how you're going to show up now, how you're going to live, what are.

What is the philosophy in which you are going to live your life?

How do you want to respond to this world?

How do you want to treat yourself?

How do you want to treat others?

See, this is where your true power lies.

This is where self love comes in.

This is where self respect comes in.

So you, my friend, today in the day of miracle.

This is a day of miracles.

Take the energy of the miracle that's happening today for many people in the world.

Believe the story of Jesus and Mary and you can use that energy, wave that energy field and go.

Yes, I decide now to believe in miracles for myself.

And you may feel some like, well, I don't really, or oh, I don't know if it can happen for me.

Sure it can happen to Mary, but not me.

Suspend all disbelief.

Today is the day to believe in miracles.

And that you can choose how you want to show up in this world, that you get to decide.

You have so much power.

You have so much power.

And just like a baby, you are innocent and pure at heart.

And everything that's ever happened to you has been for you.

Whether it sucked or not, whether it was horrible or not.

In the end, in the end of it all, you will know that everything was divinely designed, divinely guided, and you are exactly where you need to be.

So who are you?

Are you someone who is willing to believe in miracles and decide how you want to show up in this world?

Are you somebody who only sees themselves through the lens of the past?

Are you someone who only sees yourself in the lens of the divine God itself, the chosen one, the light?

Do I want that to be part and parcel of who you are and your truth?

Yes, I do.

So choose and decide to live as if that's true.

Decide.

You are a miracle.

You are a miracle.

You are an absolute miracle.

Be reborn, my friend.

Today is the day.

Until next time, be fearless.

I love you.
