Spiritual Awakening: Tell Me Something Good!!!
As I watched the news, which I very rarely do as I do not want to be influenced by the negativity that most new outlets perpetrate so as to increase ratings. Through out the spiritual awakening process I have learned that what we focus on expands thus I would rather focus on the great things GOD is doing in my life and share them with others so as to show them that when you tap into your inner divinity and allow the power inside to be unleashed in a positive way that many good things will occur. My message today is to tell me something good as goodness begets more goodness. I sign my emails and letters with the words Stay Positive. People ask me all the time JDOGG, how can you stay so positive with all the negative things occurring in the world? My answer is if I do not give them credence and I focus on the good that is happening I become more awake spiritually and I can help others to experience a spiritual awakening. There are many issues to tackle in our lifetime however if we go about attacking them we only make them worse. We have had a war on drugs in America and the drug problem has gotten worse. We have had a war on poverty in America and more people are impoverished than ever before? We have been fighting perceived enemies and we have created more turmoil. What is the answer to change how we word things such as instead of being anti-drug become pro health and educate people about the fact that GOD wants them to prosper and treat their body well and the answer doesn’t lie in a bottle or a needle or a pill the answer lies within us when we realize we are all divine children of GOD destined to be great and prosper. Instead of being against poverty become a proponent of wealth development and show people how they can become self sufficient. Instead of judging get to know people as you may find that we are more alike than we are different. Take a moment to share your goodness with others and watch what happens.
If we are to accomplish peace we must become peaceful beings. We must look at what we have and be grateful for it. When we have a little extra it is up to us to share our prosperity. When we become peaceful beings and we begin to share goodness with others we make our world a better place. When I was in The Jaycees we would recite the following creed. I took an oath to be a living example of this creed and today that creed hangs on my refrigerator as a reminder to spread peace wherever I go.
Keeping quotes like these around you will assist you in becoming focused and thus moving you further in your quest to live life on purpose.
Many times during my spiritual awakening process I have been asked this question as I tend to look at people and smile. It is part of my outgoing personality and many times people do not know how to react to a stranger smiling at them. Instead of being cordial and saying hello they will become aggressive and I answer I was looking at you and sending positive energy to you. Most times this combats the initial negative energy that this question conjures up. Sometimes in taking action and stepping into our power we will encounter those who have not accepted the idea of being on a spiritual journey and thus don’t get it. Many people feel they are being judged or don’t realize that what they are wearing might peak the interest of others.
