Dear Louise,
Do you know what causes paroxysmal atrial tachycardia?
H.J., Boulder, Colorado
You need to calm your anxious heart, dear one. Why don’t you just call it “rapid heartbeat” instead of that dreadful label? Instead of worrying about every little thing, love and appreciate everything you do have. Trust that Life will always take care of you. Look into the mirror, put your hands over your heart, and say: “Heart, I love you. You can calm down. We are safe.” Then breathe deeply. Appreciate your heart, your lungs, and every other organ in your miraculous body. All is truly well.
Dear Louise,
Is it true that there must be a balance of good and evil in the universe? If so, then isn’t it true that for every good and loving act someone performs, the universe must balance that with the creation of an evil act?

Oh my! I’ve been getting the most bizarre letters and questions since September 11, 2001. I think the events of that date triggered some fear corner in our collective brains. Stop wasting your thoughts thinking about evil. There is no evil. There are simply some people behaving very foolishly. But that’s only because they don’t understand the laws of life. What you give out comes back to you. Always. It’s just that simple. The outpouring of love and compassion around the world since that date has been amazing.
Decide what you want to receive in your world—not what the media tells you is coming. Think the thoughts that will attract that, and you can create your own paradise. Affirm: I LIVE IN THE PARADISE OF MY OWN CREATION. I AM THE CREATOR OF MY LIFE. I LOVE ME!
Dear Louise,
I went back to school at age 53 to get a long-dreamed-about MBA. I’m not ready to change careers, as I’m done with school, but I’m 58 now and terrified that I’ll be subjected to age discrimination and never get the job I desire. Help me through worrying about my age in this crazy job market!
R.Z., RICHMOND, VIRGINIA
Time to stop whining! You went to school for the joy of it. You’re now giving the world the opportunity to experience your wonderful new self. All that other stuff may be true for others. It’s not true for you! You’re not under the law of anyone else’s thinking. You create your own reality.
Now, what is the reality you really want for yourself? Get a hold of your thinking, girl. It’s your world. Make it the way you want it. Here are some affirmations: THERE ARE PEOPLE LOOKING FOR EXACTLY WHAT I HAVE TO OFFER. THEY WILL BE DELIGHTED WITH MY JOYOUS PERSONALITY AND POSITIVE OUTLOOK ON LIFE. THEY SEE MY SPIRIT AND LOVE ME. I ATTRACT A GOOD SALARY, AND THE JOB MARKET IS PERFECT FOR ME. ALL MY DREAMS COME TRUE, AND I LOVE LIFE!
Dear Louise,
I am only 13 years old, but I have a lot of questions that I know only you can answer. I’ve been having a lot of trouble with friends lately. I don’t really know what to do. I don’t feel wanted or accepted in school. I don’t have anyone to open up to or share my feelings with. Who can I talk to? And, I don’t know what I will be when I grow up. I also wonder if I will ever have true love in my life. Please respond. Thank you for reading this.
R.N., NEW YORK CITY
How wonderful that you are searching for answers and that you’re willing to reach out to ask for help. You’re not alone in the way you feel. There are three Chicken Soup for the Teenage Soul books, and I would suggest you go to the library and read all of them. They are filled with stories you will be able to relate to.
Just know love and friendship start on the inside. Happiness comes from the star of love in our own heart, not from outside of us. When we truly love ourselves, we become attractive to others. So start loving who you are. Morning and evening, go to the mirror, look in your own eyes, and say, “I love you. I really, really love you.” When you love yourself, Life unfolds in the most delightful ways, including bringing you friends and opportunities. And, of course, you will find true love. In the meantime, learn a lot and have fun. I see a great life ahead for you. Affirm: TODAY MY LOVE SHINES OUT FROM MY HEART AND TOUCHES EVERYONE I MEET.
