    About this ebook

    How do you try to control your fate when everything is going against you?
     

    School is about to finish but Chloe still hasn't found her true path's calling. There's pressure from her family, her friends, and even herself to make a decision, but her confidence is lacking. The only thing she's sure about is that painting makes her happy, but when the university rejects her application she falls into a lonely spiral, unsure of where to go. It isn't until her sister suggests that Chloe seek help from the Spirit Guides that things finally begin to make sense.


    "The Spirit Guides' is a playful coming of age novella that explores our connection to intuition with the help of the spiritual world.

    Phoebe Garnsworthy

    Phoebe Garnsworthy is an Australian author who seeks to discover magic in everyday life. She has travelled the world extensively, exploring eastern and western philosophies alike, while studying the influences that these beliefs have on humanity. The intention of her writing is to encourage conscious living and unconditional love. From the Author: I have been believing in magic for all of my life.  Since I was in the middle grade, the universe called my name and enticed me . . . inspiring me to daydream for endless hours in wondrous lust. Through my imagination I escaped to enchanted worlds full with witches, mermaids, wizards and fairies. I always searching for ways to escape my reality with something more exciting. By the time I was a young adult, I discovered that magic not only existed but was attainable to all of us through a spiritual connection to life. And it was from here that my journey of self-discovery of the world that was inside of me began. I travelled and learnt as much as possible from spiritual leaders and ancient philosophical texts. I walked across incredible lands, met real-life witches, shamans and angels who showed me how we can utilize our natural resources on Earth to heal ourselves and bring peace to the world around us. And I weave these teachings of mindfulness, conscious living, meditation, astral travel, chakras, quantum physics and many more throughout my novels. They are constantly evolving and infinitely changing. My writings reflect my dance with the mysterious and wonderful, an intoxicating love in a world that’s overflowing with beauty and magic.  I’ve never stopped believing in magic nor dreaming about alternate realities. I swim with mermaids every time I touch the ocean and I practice spiritual witchcraft daily. I am surrounded with inspirational people who I consider Kings and Queens. Everything is possible if you only dared to dream. Everything is perfectly beautiful, if you only chose to see. I want to show you how magical you are, how wonderful the world is, and how much love you hold inside. My love is unconditional and forever lasting, Phoebe Garnsworthy www.lostnowhere.com

      Chapter One

      Secrets Between Sisters

      I don’t know the answers either. Chloe whispered to the puppy as he lifted his head. His floppy ears hung low to the table and he tilted his left one closer to her as though he was truly listening.

      Everything’s confusing me. she whispered, as she reflected on her life.

      She felt tormented from trying to make a decision, hopelessly lost about which life path to take. Her mind was overloaded with endless possible outcomes as each choice was presented to her. She had no idea which was the right one that served her best. Should she choose a boring career path that made good money, or something that she was truly passionate about? Each probability held a glimmer of hope that perhaps it could be the right direction to take, but how would she ever really know?

      How do I know if I’m making the right decision? Chloe sighed in her mind, telepathically feeling as though the puppy could hear her. The dog’s blue eyes stared at her with anticipation. A feeling of hope and despair merged together into one emotion and she empathized with the small puppy, who she somehow knew was feeling the same way.

      I know, I know. she cooed soothingly, as she patted his soft brown fur on the tip of his head just above his eyes and massaged the skin that rolled over his teeth and along his jawline prompting him to close his eyes with pleasure. In that moment of nurturing love and support the puppy’s entire energy changed; he forgot about the pain he was feeling and took a great big breath, sighing with comfort and relief for the connection that he felt with Chloe, one that he had sought after for so long.

      What’s wrong with this one Ashley? He just seems so sad? Chloe asked, turning to her sister who was listening to the heartbeat of a white dog on the veterinarian’s table.

      He is sad. Ashley frowned back. His owners haven’t given him enough attention, so his medicine literally is just to be loved and cuddled.

      To be loved and cuddled? Chloe echoed back with disbelief and hurt, wondering how someone could neglect the responsibility to give the love that they had once chosen.

      It sounds so simple. How could someone not love you! Chloe continued to talk to the puppy as she wrapped her arms tightly around his body and she stroked his fur with long fluid strokes from the tip of his neck down to his belly. The puppy nuzzled his face into Chloe’s arms, and a soft wheezing breath breezed through his nose.

      Isn’t it beautiful though? Chloe said as she patted the fur of the puppy’s throat. That no matter how neglected these animals feel, their faith is not broken. And they give themselves wholeheartedly to their next owner, even though they too could potentially break their heart.

      Ashley stopped what she was doing.

      Whoa Chloe, that was a bit deep. Are we talking about the dogs here, or your own love life right now? she smirked.

      Ugh. I don’t even think that it’s my love life that’s bothering me! I think I’m just overwhelmed with all these decisions to make and I just can’t make them. Do I go on a date with Tom and risk getting hurt again? But even so, I don't even think that’s the real problem here.

      You don’t?

      Chloe quickly shook her head.

      No, I think I’m just putting off the real issue. Like, what am I going to do after I finish school? She looked to her sister with tears in her eyes, the confusion of being unable to make a decision had resulted in the emotion of sadness from a feeling of inadequacy at being unable to decide her true path’s calling. She felt as though her inability to make a choice presented herself as weak, as she was continuously asking others for answers to her questions that no one could answer but herself. She patted the puppy again. 

      You’re coming to the party with me tonight? her sister teased, knowing perfectly well that Chloe didn’t mean what was she going to do after school literally that day.

      Ashley! I’m serious. Everyone has got plans, like: study for 4 years, get a job, or go traveling. I have nothing. NOTHING. No passion, no direction, just NOTHING. Oh, this sucks.

      Ashley stopped feeding the puppy and came closer to her sister. She lifted Chloe’s chin and stared her squarely in the eyes, and she held her gaze here for several seconds, ensuring that their breath was relaxed and in sync.

      Please listen to me carefully, Chloe. You, my friend, are in THE most exciting time of your life! You are two years away from being an adult which means you get to play in the teenager realm just a little bit longer before all the responsibilities set in and on top of that -you get to choose what you want to do! - Not many people have that choice. Chloe, do you know how lucky you are? her voice trailed off as she looked up to the ceiling, imagining the same feeling she’d had only a few years ago. You can do absolutely anything you want to in this world. Absolutely anything you set your mind to. Now stop playing the victim and allow the decision to come to you when the time is right.

      Chloe glared at her sister. She hated being told that she was playing the victim and hated even more when Ashley pulled the older sister card and acted all high and righteous. But, sadly, she couldn’t really argue with her this time and respectfully agreed with her.

      Okay, you are right. Chloe said slowly, rolling her eyes in resignation. So what do I do now?

      Of course I’m right. Ashley winked as she took the puppy out from Chloe’s hands and replaced it with her school bag. Now go home and meditate on it. she continued, as she pushed Chloe toward the front door. Clear your mind and just enjoy the feeling of not knowing. Don’t try and change it to be anything else but this. You are meant to be feeling this way. she said as she tapped Chloe on the shoulder and opened the back door. Chloe stood there, not wanting to walk through.

      And then what? Chloe asked like a little child who enjoyed being told what the game was and how to play it.

      Get a journal, write down your thoughts and feelings and just keep writing until you can’t write anymore, and somewhere in that mix of chaotic thoughts you will find your answer. I promise you.
