Spiritual Awakening: Finding The Sunny Side!!!
As we experience spiritual awakenings we will encounter darkness and light. When we encounter darkness it is important to take action and find the sunny side. As I continue to do my fundraising for The American Cancer Society Relay For Life of Boca Raton, http://main.acsevents.org/goto/jdogg4, I encounter many people who for one reason or another find it necessary to condemn my actions and who are not open to listening to the reason behind why and what I am doing. Many times I get upset and this takes me to a dark place filled with anger because as much as I do my best to detach from the negativity there are times that my human side interferes with my spiritual side. In the last few weeks I have encountered some people who are so filled with themselves and a desire to be right that I found myself wanting to just punch them in the throat then I realized that this emotion did not serve me well and it was like wrestling a pig in the mud where you both get dirty but the pig enjoys it. As I looked back on my reactions and began to let go I felt relieved and began to focus on all those who were receptive to my work to create a world with less cancer and more birthdays. It was when I began to look at the positive that I found many people who shared my posts and my entire outlook changed as I realized that you can find a sunny side in every situation.
Such was the case just now as I am sitting in Panera Bread working on this blog entry after a not so pleasant encounter while out collecting donations for The American Cancer Society Relay For Life of Boca Raton. As I was writing I received a Direct Message on Facebook from someone who promised me a donation and she wrote done. I checked my donation page and saw that her donation now puts me at $834.83 raised. She even went as far as sharing the donation page with others. This not only put a smile on my face but t also put a warmth in my heart and put me in a place of light as opposed to darkness. It is amazing what happens when you look for the sunny side in life.
When you choose to walk on sunshine and find the sunny side you will find that you become more aware of your spiritual gifts. When you decide to walk on sunshine and use your spiritual gifts for good you can always find the sunny side even in the most difficult situations that you will encounter as you walk your spiritual path and share your truth with others. It feels good knowing that we can come alive and serve the community and detach from the elements put in front of you to attempt to bring you to a dark place. If you can alleviate the negative emotions and breathe away the negative encounters you can create more positive emotions and move forward on your quest to becoming a more enlightened being.
Spiritual Awakening: Tools To Help You Find The Sunny Side!!!
Keeping essential oils at the ready is a great tool to help you get back to being centered, grounded, and focused. Keeping a bottle of lavender with spray diffuser is great as it will have a calming effect.
Keeping stones and crystals with you will help you to alleviate the negative encounters in your life. The key is to remember that when you are centered, focused, and grounded and moving in a positive direction of your dreams that you will find the sunny side.
Carrying a bible has proven to be one of the greatest tools for me as I can turn to the scriptures and realize that if GOD brought me to it GOD will bring me through it. I have book marked Ecclesiastes 3 to remind me that there is a purpose for ever season under heaven. I also turn to Psalm 23 to remind me that GOD is with me always.
I have found that taking a relaxing spiritual bath to be a great tool to find the sunny side as it allows us to clear blockages and come to the further understanding that we are divine children of GOD and GOD wants us to be successful.
Meditation such as this has served to release negative feelings and thus allowing me to reconnect with source and to better be of service and value to others.
