Spiritual Awakening: Get Bent!!!
Not what you thought, huh? Many times we think of telling someone to get bent is a bad thing in this case it is a good thing as we are telling them to make a mind, body, soul connection so as to manifest the life that they desire. In taking action to get bent we expand our horizons as we stretch to go beyond what we once thought were our own limitations. In becoming an action taker and helping others to get bent we bend ourselves as we experience new concepts that help us to awaken spiritually thus giving us the correct perspective to answer our calling and to become the change we want to see in this world. In getting bent we are able to put ourselves in a favorable position to be of service and value to others. In being of service and value to others we open up the channels to receive therefore creating a life that we desire as planned by GOD. In getting bent we can become more in tune with the concept that we are divine children of GOD and GOD’s plan for us is far greater that the plan we have for ourselves.
When I was in The Philippines serving as a U.S. Peace Corps Volunteer teaching English, Math, and Livelihood Skills at The Regional Rehabilitation Center For Youth I was able to get bent by practicing some of the traditional Filipino Dances and after a session of dancing I would find myself invigorated and reenergized knowing that I was being of service and value to others. In my 7mnths of service I found myself becoming more and more spiritually aware and awake and getting bent became a daily practice be it dancing, meditating, walking, or simply stretching I found myself becoming more and more connected to GOD, The Ascended Masters, and The Angels. In getting bent and staying connected to GOD I was able to create a great experience which I draw on today to remind me that I am on this earth as a human having a spiritual existence that will manifest into the life that I desire. In getting bent I have been able to shift from darkness to light. In many case I simply get bent by playing some soothing music and stretching thus getting me back to being centered, focused, and grounded.
The last few weeks have proven to be challenging as my own missteps have set me back and tested me. In learning from these set backs I have come to understand that you can not fight the feelings that you can only accept them and work through them. I have come to realize that I can only control my actions and that what other people do is not my problem even if their actions adversely affect me. I can choose to be angry and lower my vibration bringing more negativity into my life or I can turn the page and move on. The idea is not to fight the feeling but to recognize the feeling and work through it by remembering the spiritual teachings and understanding that if GOD brought you to it GOD will bring you through it. It is when we embrace the feelings and the challenges that are placed in our path that we are able to become action takers and come up with a solution that will make things better in our personal, professional, and spiritual life.
As my old lap top became difficult to use I made a decision to buy a new one. Unfortunately there was a communication breakdown with the salesperson and many of my files of the old lap top were not transferred. At first I was upset then I took a deep breath and realized though it may take time to move the files I will get them moved and thus be able to continue on my mission to be of service and value to others. As I consulted with the ascended masters and embraced the spiritual awakening I realized that it is important to answer my calling and follow the directions of GOD and simply move on in a positive direction toward my goals. As my new lap top came alive I found myself coming alive and being in a better place as I now had the tool I needed to promote the idea of planting the seeds of hope and healing for those touched by cancer. I was now given the opportunity to make the changes that I needed to make to be of service and value to my community. As my emotions ran the gamut of the emotional vibration field I realized that I had a choice I could be upset with the financial position I was in and where my life was or I could be grateful that I had the money to get a new lap top. I chose to be grateful and it changed my whole outlook. 
Through the spiritual awakening process I have learned that if you want happiness you must flip the switch and drive out the darkness that is lurking around you. It is imperative that you flip the switch so that you exude positive emotions enabling you to make a positive difference in your life and in the lives of others. One of the facts of life is that not everyone will like you and that is okay. Another fact of life is to go where you are celebrated not just tolerated. If you find yourself in a place where you are not respected and celebrated simply flip the switch and when you can leave or severe ties take the high road and move on. It is said that what we focus on expands so instead of focusing on what we don’t have focus on what you do have and be grateful for what you do have. In flipping the switch from anger and despair to gratitude and hope you will find yourself attracting more peace, love, joy, and prosperity into your life. In focusing on living your life in joy and bringing joy to others you will find that you begin to create the life that you desire easier and effortlessly. Sometimes it is just a matter of simply flipping the switch. 
As we become action takers it is important to do small things with great love. In being a conduit of love we will attract love into our personal, professional, and spiritual lives as we awaken spiritually. In doing things from a heart centered base you will find that the smallest gesture of love gets the biggest results. Yesterday (2/28/2018) I went out on a mission to promote The 2018 American Cancer Society Relay For Life Of Sunrise. Overall my day went great as I detached from expectations and simply tapped into my inner divinity thus allowing things to flow as GOD had intended. I did encounter one woman, a manager at Uncle Buck’s, a discount store in the neighborhood, who was so negative that I was left thinking wow someone need a spiritual enema. The beauty of being impeccable with my word, not taking things personally, not making judgments, and always doing my best is that I was able to take a deep breath and move on. I moved on to a dentist’s office and introduced myself and told them who I was and what I was doing. They were very open and receptive and donated $20. In focusing on the positive and doing the small things I was able to find joy in the knowledge that the donations I was collecting were making a positive impact on the lives of those touched by cancer. After collecting donations and promoting The 2018 American Cancer Society Relay For Life Of Sunrise I went across the street to the park for a meeting. I was a bit early so I went to watch a girls Flag Football Game and was able to connect with the coach and then I watched the boys flag football game and was able to make a connection with the coach in hopes that these two teams would participate in The 2018 American Cancer Society Relay For Life of Sunrise. I continued to share Relay everywhere I went and as a result was able to spread the word and plant seeds of hope and healing for cancer patients. 
One way to walk the spiritual line and stop the madness is to utilize books such as these on a daily basis to set the tone for the day. When you awake and get prepared for the day take a moment to walk the spiritual line with reading something positive or sitting quietly in meditation prepared to receive the messages that will allow you to vibrate on a positive plain and thus making your day go as GOD has intended it to go as you walk the spiritual line. Understand there are going to be events that happen throughout the day that may seem to hinder your routine and your plans but you have the power to adapt and overcome and thus continue to manifest the type of day you want to have. Today I had issues with my lap top and instead of getting mad and coming from a pace of lack I took care of the issue by walking a spiritual line and guess what it turned out okay as I needed a new charger and was able to purchase a new charger. As a result I was able to get on line and write this blog and also work on The 2018 American Cancer Society Relay For Life Of Sunrise. In being aware and a wake I was able to make adjusts and thus continue on my mission to be of service and value to others. In the past I would have gotten mad and upset but now that I walk a spiritual line I am able breathe and take things in stride realizing if GOD brought me to it GOD will bring me through it. 
Last night (2/7/2018) I was announcing The Calvary Eagles vs Cardinal Gibbons Chiefs Girls Varsity High School Basketball Game and I made a call when the opposing player from Calvary double dribbled. I said double dribble get her a kids cup Chiefs Basketball. At halftime a parent from Calvary came up to me and asked if I thought is was okay to heckle the girls. I said I wasn’t heckling I was just adding some flair to the game as I have been doing for many years, At that moment another parent stated you can’t do that it is high school basketball. I apologized and began to walk away and the other parent kept going on and on.I simply went back to my announcing position. After the game a few of The Cardinal Gibbons parents came up to me and said don’t worry about it they were upset from the time they got to the gym you did a great job. The irony of the whole situation is that Calvary is a Christian School and I thought one of the covenants of Christianity was forgiveness.
In becoming humble before GOD and seeking forgiveness for my trespasses I will become a better person and thus attract peace, love, joy, and prosperity into my life so that I can continue to be of service and value to others. Last night was a humbling experience for me as in all my years of announcing I have never had someone come up to me to complain about my call of a game. It was a learning experience for me as it reinforced that not everyone will be a fan of your style. In accepting that not everyone will resonate with your style you begin to become more true to yourself as you move along your spiritual path. The only thing anyone of us can do is walk in our truth and follow the messages that GOD is sending you. In my case as a professional announcer and emcee I must become more aware as to the effect I have on audiences and to carry myself with grace and dignity. I must realize that as funny as I might find something others may find it hurtful thus I must find a common ground where I bring the game to life without disrespecting the game. It is important to look at how we conduct ourselves and how we play this game of life understanding that sometimes we can get a bit crazy.
