Spiritual Awakening: Danica Patrick Inspires With Daytona 500 Achievement
On Sunday Danica Patrick made history by being the female driver to start a Daytona 500 from The Pole Position. At one point Danica Lead The Daytona 500 becoming the first female driver to do that. When the Daytona 500 ended Danica Patrick was in 8th place. She also is part of history as she is 1 of 13 drivers to lead a lap at The Indiapolis 500 and The Daytona 500. Danica’s accomplishments show us that when we are spiritually awakened and focused on what our purpose is that great things happen. Hearing Danica speak and giving praise to GOD helped me to realize and I hope it helps you to realize that when you make a mind,body, soul connection and give praise to GOD that yu begin to reap rewards and thus be more inline to expand upon your spiritual awakening.
Spiritual Awakening: Danica Inspires Us To Remain Centered and Grounded
Though Danica wanted to win she was gracious in finishing 8th explaining that as she gained more experience and learned more she would improve and hopefully one day win a Daytona 500. Danica Patrick embodied the principle of spiritual awakening as she accepted where she finished and is seeking ways to improve. When you are spiritually awakened you begin to look at where you are and where you want to be in a different perspective, you begin to look at who you are and begin to become your authentic self. It is when you begin to define your I AM that you begin to grow personally and professionally. Danica showedus what happens when we are centered and grounded. When we find ourself in a place of spiritual awakening we find ourselves having more bliss in our lives, less stress in our lives, attracting more positives into our lives. It is in taking a lesson from Danica that we can move further along our path to spiritual awakening.
Spiritual Awakening: My Own Daytona 500
As Danica was preparing for her Daytona 500 and starting from the pole position I was starting from the pole position at The American Cancer Society Relay For Life of West Boca Raton. As Relay began with the survivors lap followed by the caregivers lap followed by the teams taking to the track I realized that part of my spiritual awakening was to use my talents for good and to continue to honor my mother, who passed on July 5, 2102 by being at this Relay. During the Luminaria Ceremony there was a great slide show put together by the chairperson and the Lumniaria Chair to honor all those touched by cancer.I had submitted the following photo of my mother. The photo appeared during The Luminaria Slide Show and I walked away to say a special prayer. I then a chance to witness the release of Wish Lanterns where you write a wish and attach it to these lanterns and let them go. The person finding the wish is supposed to fufill it. I also had the chance to write a square to be part of a HOPE Quilt of course I wrote something to honor my mom. I realized through out the evening just how spiritual the Relay For Life Experience is. If you have not attend a Relay event I suggest you visit www.relayforlife.org to find one near you.

Spiritua Awakening: Be an Inspiration To Others
Like Danica let your light shine so that people will be inspired to take action to answer their calling so as to have a spiritual awakening and come alive and change the world one person at a time. Never under estimate the power you have to inspire others it can be as easy as just doing a good deed for someone. It can be as simple as waking up and making a commitment to be of service and value to others. It can be as simple as saying today I will inspire myself so that my inspired work inspires others and then doing your work by allowing your light to shine.
I chose to end with this song today to encourage you to light your candle of hope and find inspiration as you continue on your path of spiritual awakening. It through your awareness that you will change yourself to improve your personal and professional life. Stay Positive!
