Spiritual Awakening: What Will Be Your Legacy?
As I scoured through my Facebook News Feed I saw stories about the passing of Louise Hay, a leader in the spiritual and personal development industry and thought wow what a legacy she leaves for all that knew her or were influenced by her. I then read about the passing of Rollie Massimino, legendary basketball coach who will be forever remembered for one of the greatest upsets in NCAA Basketball History as he was the coach of The Vilanova Wildcats Team that beat The Georgetown Hoyas to win The NCAA Basketball Championship. As I sat in reflection I thought about the concept of how people will remember you and what legacy are you creating? In living a life dedicated to being of service and value you will leave a legacy that last long after GOD calls you home. Look at the actions you are taking and make sure they are in alignment with your values and helping you move toward spiritual enlightenment. If you are to leave a legacy of hope and healing you must become an action taker by doing something daily that will move you forward in a positive direction of your goals.
Louise and Rollie shared a commonality and that was caring about people and developing them to their full potential. Louise did this through her books and workshops while Rollie did this through basketball. These two individuals truly exemplified the ideals that service to humanity is the best work of life. Louise’s legacy lives on with the Hay Foundation and Rollie’s Legacy lives on with many scholarships in his name at the various colleges where he coached. What legacy are you creating? How are you using your platforms to help other people excel? When GOD calls you home what will your final sentence read in your obituary? For me it will say in Lieu of Flowers please make a donation to The American Cancer Society.
What gifts have you be left by those who are now angels in heaven. As I sat in quiet reflection this morning (8/31/2017) I realized that we all have a responsibility to carry on the legacies that have been passed on to us and to add to their legacy while also leaving our own footprints in the sand. It is when we start to detach from outcomes and focus on building the legacy that will carry on long after we are gone that we begin to attract peace, love, joy, and prosperity into our lives. It is when we go with the flow and let go and let GOD that we are able to build upon our legacy and thus manifest the life that we desire.
It is when we lay our weary heads to rest and seek the answers from GOD, The Ascended Masters, and The Angels that we are able to create a legacy that anyone would be pleased to put his or her name on as a testament to the life we lived. The question is what will be my legacy? You will not be measured by the house you lived in the car you drove or the clothes you wore you will be measure by the impact you made on people’s lives. It is when we begin to focus on the legacy that we will leave behind that we gain clarity of our purpose. In being clear with our purpose we begin to create a life filled with abundance and bliss. In releasing our materialistic based beliefs and converting them to spiritual based beliefs we begin to find that our life becomes easier to maneuver as we begin to understand that we are spiritual beings having a human existence. Many times to be truly dedicated to leaving a legacy we must remove all the negativity and release all blockages that are stopping us from being our true authentic selves. It is important to understand that service to humanity is the best work of life.
Spiritual Awakening:Working On Leaving A Legacy: A Case Study!
I have been a supporter of The American Cancer Society Relay For Life for 18 years and each year it is my desire to raise more money than the year before so as to leave a legacy of hope and healing for those touched by cancer. This year I have really stepped up my efforts to raise funds by reaching out to sports related vendors and asking for assistance. I recently reached out to www.ownsportshistory.com and they allowed me to order any ring I wanted to use in a chance drawing at The POINTS FOR THE CURE FOOTBALL EDITION PARTY. I ordered the 2011 NY Giants Super Bowl Ring. In reaching out and becoming a legacy of hope and healing I have been able to take action and get good results which will lead to me being able to answer the question of what did I do for others when the day of judgement comes. In stepping up my efforts and understanding that what I do for others will die with me but what I do for others will last long after I am gone has proven to help me stay centered, focused, and grounded while working on leaving a legacy that will inspire others to be of service and value everyday. What will your legacy be? Namaste!
