Dear Ones, the more you release the need for labels, the more freedom you have. The moment you label something, you put constraints and restrictions upon it. Many times, in fact, it immediately stunts its growth.

Labels feed expectations and limit growth. They are often are created because you are trying to control something or to force it to behave in a certain way. Much like a fish will not outgrow its tank, the moment you put your creations in a box they can only become as big as their container.

The greatest gift you can give yourself and the things that matter to you is the freedom to self express and the room to grow into their grandest expressions of self. You sell yourselves so short when you start to restrain things in your desire to have safety and predictability, for the moment something stops growing is the moment it loses its purpose. There is so much more available to you than what you realize!

Allow your relationships to grow and evolve. By giving them the space to unfold, you support them in blooming into their highest potential. What labels do you have for yourself? Can you loosen them up or become broader in your own expectations of self? Can you allow your service to continue to evolve? Can you become friends with the flow and let it continue to surprise and delight you?

Your expansion is what allows you to shine brighter and brighter in your highest expression of self. The same it is for all the things that are most important to you. Support the fullness of everything around you and you will be amazed at how much more potential there is than you ever could have imagined in all areas of your life. ~Archangel Gabriel through Shelley Young
