Hi im Lesley Williams, TRUITY, and today I want to talk to you about lifes precious gift to us all, and acknowledging our "true wealth." True wealth is not just about money, its about relationships, friendships, quality of life, peace of mind and fulfilment, and of course being financially secure that helps. If you havnt been reaching those goals, if your relationships havnt been as good as they could be, and opportunities keep passing you bye then you might like to read this article. If your one of those people who give too much then read this, it will help.
The choices you make will determine your life, direction and not only that but the quality of your life experience. Today I want to talk to my readers about, "doing things right," rather than "doing the easy thing,"
This is so important in life and is something that not many people understand, its often a lot easier to simply do the easy thing, you know, stay in that job you hate, agree with everyone around you and just stay in those comfort zones. But do you know what, doing the easy thing often isn't the easy path. It may seem that the decisions you have made avoid confronting your fears, but that's where life comes unstuck.
Do you feel you can do more with your life? Have you always wanted to go that extra mile, follow your dreams; have a life that's fulfilling, and yet things don't seem to work out and you can't figure out why? Well this might help.
Most seem to struggle with life, it's a fact, and do you know there is one often common but unseen quality that prevents us from becoming all that we can be and more. How often have you created a drama, or because of your fear chosen in life to take the easy path? How many times in your life have you chosen not to do the right thing? How many times have you made excuses as to why you couldn't do something, yet you still keep complaining and stay in that zone which doesn't honor that you truly are. You can justify everything you have chosen in your life if you want, and its ok, it's your life. But if those choices are based upon an incongruence of harmony and balance then the result is more of the same of what you have already had, and more struggle.
Why does this happen, why is it we don't automatically do things right? The answer to this is a dual sword, firstly we are not taught to be in harmony with our inner self, we don't know how to balance the energy in and the energy out. Many of us give so much more than we receive, and if we are doing that then of course our lives cant manifest the way they are intended, simply we don't have the energy to attract those opportunities or the energy to fulfill them when they do arise. Secondly it takes great courage to do the right thing, because doing the right thing often involves being in very uncomfortable places, emotionally, mentally and physically.
Life doesn't come with a manual, something that guides us to self harmony and balance, and we often love too much or love ourselves to little. We respond the way people want us to respond, saying yes when we mean no, and in doing that creating an in harmony within our core being. You might be thinking right now well it's not always easy to say no, and that's true. It's not easy if you feel guilty about saying no, because then you act emotionally and things get messy and complicated. To go one step further we act this way when we feel guilty about wanting some space or energy for ourselves, guilt is the prime undermining factor in any relationship even the relationship with ourselves.
Many years ago a wise man once said to me, "to thy self be true and this is all you require in life." How right he was, because if we are true to our thoughts, and what we are thinking is in harmony with our words and actions then life is good. Its when we think one thing and say and do another, that is when we find our lives going completely off track.
When faced with felling out of balance simply do this. This is something I have learned in my life, I allow myself the grace to step back and look at how my thoughts and actions have been aligned. If they haven't then it's essential that I find a way to address this, to regain my inner balance.
It doesn't matter if its feeling uncomfortable about asking for that raise, saying no to my kids, or just allowing myself personal space, I take a moment and ask myself what is the truth of my situation. Is it that I am choosing to do things right, or am I looking to let my fears rule and do things the easy way?
"Doing things right," = moving forward having your thoughts, emotions, words and actions all aligned, even if it is scary.
Every moment of your day weather you realize it or not you are faced with hundreds of choices which involve, "doing things right," or "doing things the easy way," doing things right requires courage, and that courage involves you having the will and the strength to "stand up and face the battle, and never turn your back and run away."
Ultimate wealth in life can only come from a basis of Harmony and Balance within you, so find your courage, become who you truly are and stop being that person who is not real.
Many blessings to all, my wish for you all this month is HARMONY, BALANCE and above all COURAGE. Go well............TRUITY

Submitted by Julie, a wonderful woman of strength living with cancer.
Hi everyone, I am happy to share my story.
I got married on the June 30th 07 at 8 am in morning it was so cold,
I will start from the beginning, Winton & me had been together for 7 years, then in February I was diagnosed with breast cancer
Had surgery in March as it was aggressive, started Chemo end of March lost my hair after the second treatment, after I had got back from a doctor appointment winton got down on one knee and asked me to marry him?
I checked all the Chinese stars and every other thing to make sure the day would be right. It was the end of a financial year and it was a blue moon. The only thing that was
worrying everyone including winton was that I would be to sick, my oncology nurses kept telling me leave it till your finished, as I was still having chemo .The community groups rotary and lioness helped with food and getting the Rotary Park perfect one of the best gifts was the Mission Beach Rotarians raised funds so I could get a wig that was light as I got headaches a lot .Elma from Bridal Elegance looked after my dress and also made me a jacket as I get cold very quickly. My flowers and my cake was supplied by a special friend. We made it an open wedding to community, friends, family, people bought food my doctor and ambulance officer attended so I knew everything would be Ok .Over 150 turned up it was the coolest and most pristine morning so I got to walk down red carpet and see Winton standing there with tears in his eyes and our 5 daughters I knew that today would be a memory to last a lifetime for me and especially for the ones I love.
Sal Badcock played and sang a Olivia Newton John Song, New Beginning (Olivia wrote this going through breast cancer) and felt the warmth from all the community .Elrae was
my celebrant and Peter Parakas also said a reading (as his wife also passed away from cancer).Cancer touches everyone somehow but by embracing it and not being scared of
it, making every day a new beginning the pain and the treatment you go through will be worth it .It is all ways in the back of your mind that it might return or maybe there wont be a tomorrow, but always make the most of today. My wedding day was the Most beautiful Day when I got to hear my daughter sing for me and see my baby twin grandsons carry
rose petals family is so important .My advice to Brides don’t spend heaps of money ,don’t be worried about family matters just make your wedding a new beginning with the one you love.

Raising Consciousness.
You are welcome to share this newsletter article, however please give credit to the writer and website. thanks TRUITY.
-----------------------------------------------------------
How can raising consciousness help you? Will it help you? What does it mean? How does it work on a group level?
Its interesting when you search on the internet the words, “Raising Consciousness,” the answers Google bring up are so wide and varied, everything from it being the outcome of radical feminist movements, (not true) to something that can either benefit or harm you in various ways. It all gets quite confusing, to the seeker on the path to find a better way to live.
Raising consciousness is the act of changing ones thoughts, to align with the betterment of the whole. In other words, it relates to changing ones life experiences one thought at a time. In life we all do things the hard way, our emotions get in the way, our anger our intolerance pushes us to react to other people and other external stimuli.
When one individual changes and let’s go of one reactive belief pattern, did you know the ripples flow out to the whole world? This is not just some fancy idealistic idea its actual proven fact, Quantum Physics.
By each person becoming aware of why they hook in to reactive patterns, they then have the ability to change those patterns. By changing from reactive behaviour to proactive behaviour they then extend their life experiences in ways which bring new interactions and challenges. This is the way the universe of thought evolves. It is only through raising consciousness can new ways be found to resolve old issues. However, if the individual is still motivated by emotions and hooked into the drama of the situation then it is unlikely that a full resolution of conflict will be achieved. To put that in English, if you are still angry, emotional and blaming other people for your life, nothing will in fact change.
The key to raising consciousness it to fully understand and take responsibility for how we respond to others, and at the same time our actions in response.
The answer to will raising your consciousness help you is YES! Without a doubt, it will empower you to stop repeating patterns which cause you to suffer financially, mentally and physically. Undoubtedly when the individual changes, it must flow on to change the patterns of humanity’s collective consciousness.
At this time on the planet, the majority of the population suffer the consequences of not being aware that every second of every day, we have incredible opportunities to change and grow, we have the wonderful gift of being able to step out of old ways, and consciously change our lives, in ways which release the perceptions which keep us fighting and struggling. In a sense the majority of people are prisoners, victims of their own past experiences without even knowing they are held prisoner in an invisible cage. The patterns limit their lives, their relationships, their opportunities, like a program in a computer, they just go about their lives doing what they always did, getting what they always get.
There is an old saying, “if you do what you have always done you will get what you have always got,” I am not sure who wrote that saying originally but how true is that? Someone looks at us in a certain way, or says something in a certain tone and we are off on a tirade of self protection and its kill the messenger, before he hurts us with words. Well this is where raising consciousness comes into play. Did you know at any minute you can simply make the choice not to buy into that instant where your old habit, takes you round doing the same thing you always do, and getting the same result you always get. Humanity has the incredible ability to move forward in thinking, to set ourselves free, simply by using our own discernment.
I recently had cause to tell this little story to someone close to me, now this person gets all het up over small things and always thinks the worst of people and wants to prove they are right, they react to everything as though it’s a drama. My words were, “ if a big rock fell on your head today, and you lost your memory, all except that you knew who you were, but not any life details, how do you think you would respond to people you meet today? How would you respond if you could meet people in a way that had you free from all those old preconceptions and all that history? How different would your greeting be? How different would your meeting be? Well as a conscious human being, you have this ability, you can at any moment make the choice to see life fresh, and in doing so change the way you interact with people who cause you to react. You can either simply acknowledge their life is their life and its their reality not yours, or, you can keep buying into the old patterns of interaction that keep you having to deal with people who are pushing your buttons. What do you want, to be conscious in your actions or to unconsciously keep playing out all those old memories, over and over and over?
At www.wanabelong.com and www.truityonline.com my aim is to prompt people to heal their lives, not through some magic course, or instant fix, but to heal your life, “one thought at a time.” Truity Online, deals with more the esoteric side of life, the spiritual aspects of raising consciousness through developing an intuitive relationship with yourself. While www.wanabelong.com is aimed more towards an environmental lifting of consciousness. I trust you enjoy this monthly news update.

May the life force be with you!
Part 2. Of is your life working for or against you. How full is your personal bank account? If its empty then keep reading this article will help you.
In the last short article on this topic, I spoke about values and how our intrinsic value system pushes us in certain directions. The life you are experiencing now is just a manifestation of those desires and priorities. Most of what you want in life is the same as everyone else, so why is it one person seems to take flying leaps and bounds into the positive future and another person find everything a struggle? There can be a couple of influences that compound on the outcomes.
Firstly there is the matter of goals, for example people may have seen me struggle in my life and yet in truth the goals I have set for my life are so big that other people would never have even thought to do what I do, let alone do it.
Secondly, and most importantly, there is the personal care factor of the life experience; generally people don’t know how to take care of themselves in the journey.
So today we will talk about the second in these topics; how do you take care of yourself, how do you get the life force to be with you?
People who struggle, people who become ill mostly have one thing in common, they are good caring people. The problem is a simple one, many people want to be loved and accepted, they want to please and take care of their loved ones and family so they continually make withdrawals from their personal energy bank account.
Imagine we start of with so much energy, imagine it as a ball if you like that surrounds you, then as time goes bye, we keep giving this energy away without getting anything back, or only getting a little back once in a while. We say yes when we want to say no, we dress in a way that our partner likes, we behave in ways other people think suitable, we are not taught to be able to say the magic word which honours our inner feelings “NO!” If you grew up in a happy healthy family, you naturally took on your parent’s values and behaviours to some extent. If you grew up in a dysfunctional family then you would also have taken on those values and behaviours to some extent. But actually it is the Social values which often give us the most grief, and a part of our society at one time believed in “Sacrifice,” as an essential part of being a good Christian.
But someone got it wrong, when we sacrifice we end up sick, mentally, emotionally and physically. When we respect other people more than our selves, we end up sick, mentally, emotionally and physically. The essential part of life is self respect, and this does not mean that you are mean to other people, is rather implies that you must find ways to keep depositing energy into your own bank account, or bubble of energy in order that you then have the energy to choose to help others, and be of assistance in a genuine way rather than doing things begrudgingly.
How do we deposit into our personal bank accounts?
Its easy, do something every day which makes your heart sing, move with joy though your day, laugh at the silly things in life, play with your creative energy once in a while. Do things every day that you like to do, even if its just a few minutes, try this today.
Pick 3 things you love,
• Could be a walk in the park or on the beach
• Could be listening to music
• Could be painting or drawing
• Could be cooking
• Could be playing with your cat or kids
• Could be simply relaxing with your feet up.
• Or buying a special cup of coffee and sitting quietly and savouring every mouthful.
It doesn’t matter what it is, (providing its legal) but set 3 X 10 minute breaks, and make them happen in your day.
People say they don’t have time, well for all those people who say you don’t have time, I have news for you. If you don’t have time, you wont have energy and you will keep struggling simply because your personal bank account will end up empty and you will end up crashing and burning.
Hard line: I am going to take the hard line here, simply because when people come to see me they are often, “crashing and burning,” they are in tears, emotionally mentally and physically exhausted and confused. They hate their jobs, hate their lives, hate their families demands, they want to run away and start again.
Have you ever felt like that?
Often people do run away, they do start again and guess what; they create that same scenario over and over again, until they end up with cancer or some other illness which stops them from running.
So, if you can relate to this article why not email, or phone me? I can help you define your life and your life boundaries and in doing that, help you solve the energy crisis once and for all.
Life is really not meant to be a struggle, it is meant to be that your energy supports your life journey and your life is good.
That’s all from me today, take care till next time. Many Blessings and may your bank account always be overflowing. TRUITY Williams
