Spiritual Awakening: Spiritual Poker!!!

Spiritual Awakening: Spiritual Poker!

 

Life is often like a poker game. The best hand when playing poker is a royal flush while in our spiritual poker game  the best hand we can have is self actualization. The first rule in our spiritual poker game is to come  straight from the heart.The next rule of the spiritual poker game is that we do not use money but we use spiritually related items to place our bets like a complimentary card reading. The third rule in our spiritual poker game is that you can not fold. The fourth rule is that there will be 2 passes made, the cards dealt, first round of betting, exchange of cards then a second round of betting and then everyone shares their hand and the winner then gets the pot. In between hands players will be encouraged to write down their thoughts in a personal journal and to share their feelings about the hand so as to clear their thoughts to play the next hand.  The idea of host a spiritual poker game is to bring people together to fellowship while also expanding their spiritual growth. In spiritual growth it is not about winning it is about enlightenment. The key will be to shuffle up and deal and grow in spirituality. As you play spiritual poker you can seek guidance from your angels, your spiritual guides, any ascended masters, GOD, Jesus or other spiritual sources for assistance.

Imagine instead of using chips and playing for money that you would purchase Tokens of Appreciation for www.tofa.us and at the end the game everyone would agree to share the coins with others and regardless of the hands that were put together that night at the poker table everyone would benefit because there would be more of these tokens in the world.

Spiritual Awakening: Be Prince Charming!!!

Spiritual Awakening: Be Prince Charming!!!

 

Prince_Charming_Shrek_the_Third.jpgI receive Conversations With GOD from Neale Donald Walsh on a daily basis. These daily missives of God Wants You To Know have helped in my spiritual growth as they serve as a  great reminder that I and all those I come in contact are part of something much larger than ourselves.  Today this is what I received:

neale-donald-walsch.jpgI believe God wants you to know…

…that you can live a charmed life, and that there is a
formula by which you can make this work.

Here is the formula: You can live a charmed life by
causing others to live a charmed life. That is, be the
source of ‘charm’ — of charming moments and
experiences — in the life of another.

Be everyone else’s Lucky Charm! Make all who you
touch today feel ‘lucky’ that you crossed their path.
Do this for a week and watch things change. Do it
for a month and you’ll be a different person.

Love, Your Friend …
Neale.

 When   we become the person that makes others happy we begin to grow and flourish and thus we create a better understanding of our spiritual calling. In being like Prince Charming and taking action to pursue our goals and dreams with a sense of passion and purpose we set in motion awesome vibrations that resonate with those who can assist us in achieving our vision. When we throw caution to the wind and say regardless of what may happen I am going for it. When we are grateful for the opportunity and detach from the outcome and just simple let things flow we generally achieve a greatness that we could never have imagined.

 

 The other day I went to www.nike.com and through NIKEID designed this sneaker to wear at my Relay For Life. The right side says BEAT and the left side says CANCER. As I was discussing the sneaker and showing people the photo I got the idea to contact NIKE and suggest they make the sneaker available to the general public. Today I took action and called NIKE Customer Service and told the lady about my idea to have NIKE Produce and sell the sneakers and give a percentage of the proceeds to The American Cancer Society Relay For Life. She loved the idea and said she would buy a pair. She took the information and said she would forward it to the right people. She gave me the world headquarters number for NIKE and guess what I called it and was put through to The Community Impact Person. I left her a message. LIke Prince Charming has his quest and pursued it we must have our quest and pursue it with relentlessness as  we can achieve our visions if we take action and eliminate that which is holding us back. People may have told me that I was crazy and NIKE will never go for this. My answer is you don’t know until you take action and ask. Look inside and ask yourself what is it that is stopping me from taking action. My mindset was what is the worst NIKE will say, we are not interested. You never know until you take action.

... Doreen’s oracle cards, including the specialty focus of each cardWhen you are like Prince Charming and have a goal in mind and take action to reach that goal the results are incredible. I was on FACEBOOK a few weeks ago and I reached out to Doreen Virtue for some products to use in a Chance Drawing for my Relay For Life and she referred me to her publicist at Hay House.I emailed the publicist and the publicist ased what i was looking for.My answer was anything you can send. About a week later there was a package at my door with over $800 worth of Doreen Virtue Products. I did the same with Dr. Wayne Dyer and Louis Hay and they send items. I asked Serena Dyer and Sonia Choquette and they sent items. The idea is to be like Prince Charming and seek the connection.  When your vision is clear and the blockages are removed it is amazing what can happen. Again ask yourself what is stopping you from pursuing your quest.

 

Spiritual Awakening: Ways to Be Like Prince Charming!!!

Eliminate Fear by facing everything and rising. Do not allow doubters and naysayers or the negative self talk hold you back. Be a warrior and embrace the adventure that awaits on your spiritual path.
Live with abandon and put you trust in GOD and you will be guided along your path and closer to achieving your vision.  Do not allow what others think or say hold you back.
Remove the shackles and break the chains that may have imprisoned you in the past and stopped you from moving forward in your personal and professional life. Praise GOD for the talents he has given you and use them to achieve your vision. Each day break the chains and say today I will step into my power and achieve greatness then watch what happens.

Never Give Up!!!  Jim Valvano delivered a moving speech at The ESPYS as The First Recipient of The Arthur Ashe Courage Award that teaches us valuable lessons to help us be like Prince Charming.

Spiritual Awakening: God’s Conduit!!!

Spiritual Awakening: God’s Conduit!!!

... , positioning ourselves as a conduit of God’s blessings to othersYou are a sacred conduit through which God flows into this world.....Have you ever switched on a light switch and wondered how it knows to turn on a light?  It is a conduit that sends a  message through an electric impulse that we perceive to be electrical energy and thus the light is turned on. This same principle apples to us as we undergo our spiritual awakening the switch for us is GOD as he turns us on and directs us in ways he wants us to fulfill the purpose he has for us. Just like the light will not illuminate the room when turned off or burnt out we can not function at our optimum level without being turned on by GOD. So many times we have a tendency to block the conductivity of GOD because we allow the human experience to interfere with the spiritual experience. When we allow ego, which is edging GOD out to drive us our energy levels and our ability to resonate and vibrate with others on a positive level is reduced. It is when we feel this reduction that we must take action to reconnect with GOD.Just like changing the lightbulb when it  burns out we must change our mindset to be more connected with GOD so that we can be the conduit that shows others that all things are possible when you have oneness consciousness and a connection to GOD. Many times we have blockages in our personal and professional life because the conduit to GOD has been broken. To fix this broken connection and become a more powerful conduit for GOD we must look inside and find out what it is that is creating these blockages and make the necessary repairs. Many times it will call for a rewiring of our belief system and the understanding that part of the spiritual awakening process entails letting go and letting GOD. This can be difficult as many times we do not control the outcome so we must remember to ask GOD to grant us the serenity  to change the things we can accept the things we can not and the wisdom to know the difference.

Serenity Prayer Pink Poppies PosterIn stating this prayer and seeking GOD’S guidance we are able to step into the power that GOD has given us and achieve great things. I have often acted on the messages from GOD and as a result have been rewarded. I often state to people it is not me I am just a conduit for GOD to use to show people that service to humanity is the best work of life. I have found out that it is not my job to bring people kicking and screaming onto a spiritual path but rather it is my responsibility to shine my light for others to see and to be a lifter for those I come in contact with. Last night (2/15/15) I stopped in at a local McDonald’s to use their restroom but I felt a little guilty about not buying anything so I bought a  soft serve ice cream and a strawberry cream pie. As I left there was a gentleman asking fro money I had no money to give him but I gave him the strawberry cream pie and said GOD Bless You and I went to my car. This was one way in which I could be a conduit for GOD and to be of service and value.  In doing good deeds without the expectations of return you will be rewarded. I have come to realize that GOD loves a cheerful giver and we all have something to give.

Spiritual Awakening: Anger Be Gone!!!

Spiritual Awakening: Anger Be Gone!!!

 In the spiritual awakening process sometimes we transgress on our path so that we can can get refocused and understand that the path we walk is guided by GOD and sometimes GOD put challenges in front of us so that we can grow in mind, body, and spirit. Sometimes along our path we encounter those that are not as enlightened as we and thus conflict can created leading to anger as our human side begins to interfere with our spiritual teachings. This was the case on Super Bowl Sunday (2/1/2015) when I entered the big card room in my clubhouse to share information about POINTS FOR THE CURE FOOTBALL EDITION where people would pick The Patriots or The Seahawks and after the game visit http://main.acsevents.org/goto/jdogg2 and donate $.25 (25 cents)per point the team they chose scored. The money raised would be donated to The  American Cancer Society Relay For Life to help cancer patients, their friends, and their families by funding research, education, advocacy, and services. I though since I live in a 55+ community where most everyone knows someone touched by cancer that this idea would go over very well. Boy was I mistaken the minute I stepped foot in that room you could feel the tension you would have thought I was taking their condos away. They jumped all over me saying this wasn’t appropriate, they were not interested, and this is a private party. I felt the anger but instead of walking away I violated the spiritual teachings  and got angry and confrontational. This really upset me because I know better and I know that when you take action and follow your passion you will encounter resistance. I also know that what you focus on expands. All through out the day today their was a weight on my mind, body, and soul because I felt that I went against all the teachings of GOD, Jesus, my angel guides, and the ascended masters. It was at about 7:00 PM that the pain started to subside as I went outside into nature and asked JESUS to forgive my trespasses and to remove the anger I was holding onto. I then meditated and asked the anger to be gone. As I came out of the meditation I realized that I can not go back and undo what was done yesterday but I could commit to moving forward and becoming a  better version of myself. I then reminded myself that sometimes the best thing to do is to simply walk away and not interact with people who appear to have negative energy. I must remember that many of the people where I live are on a very low budget and are coming from a mental position of lack and because of their mental beliefs they are angry and bitter and all I can do is pray for them. I have learned that I must shine my light and remind myself t remove the anger I may be feeling as a result of loss.I also must remind myslef that I can not take things personally and get to attached to the outcome.

Pin it Like 1 Visit SiteThe thing that helped me today to allow the anger to be gone was something that I learned while serving as a U.S. Peace Corps Volunteer in The Philippines It is to allow things to unfold as GOD will take care of everything. I realize I do not have to prove myself to anyone and that their will be many that share my beliefs and my desire to help those affected by cancer and there will be those who do not. I must focus on attracting and engaging those who lift me up, support me, and share in my desire to create a world with less cancer and more birthdays.

Spiritual Awakening: I’ve Got Your Manifestation Right Here!!!

Spiritual Awakening: I’ve Got Your Manifestation Right Here!!!

Manifestation Quote In the spiritual awakening process it is importance to understand how what we think about we create. As I sat in meditation this morning (1/30/2015) listening to the Chakra Clearing CD by Doreen Virtue I began to feel a sense of calmness and release come over me as I began to understand that with the help of GOD I could bring my thoughts to fruition. After the meditation I sat and I began to do an introspective search as to the way I was going about things and how things were occurring in my personal and professional life. I started to look at how things I had done were manifesting themselves in my life. I started looking at the energy that I was bringing to the events of my life and I realized that when things were challenging I was too attached to the outcome.  I realized that it is great to take action but you must look at how that action will affect others and how it will be perceived. As many of the frequent visitors to this blog know I am very involved with The American Cancer Society Relay For Life of West Boca Raton and my passion for raising money to help cancer patients, their friends, and their families runs very high.  The other day I received an email about the signing up of 8 new teams for Relay  and in my excitement did a reply to all as I thought that as a committee it is important that we support one another and celebrate each other. I asked everyone to please focus on getting more teams and to support the following fundraiser.

Hurricane Grill Give Back The event lead(chair) left me a very angry  voice mail and a very scathing email. I took many deep breaths and I politely expressed to him why I did what I did and he took it as me usurping his power. So I told him in the future I will let you handle all communication. The lesson I learned here is that many people are driven by EGO and thus get angry and because of this many be holding themselves back.  He did make it a point to tell me he was a millionaire  and had his own successes.  As part of the spiritual awakening process I have learned to not take anything personally, and to always do my best. When I detached from the situation and realized that I was dealing with someone who did not understand the idea that it is not about power and position but it is about everyone working together for the common good of the event so that we have a successful event. The way to avoid this in the future is to understand that EGO is edging god out and while many will profess to be following a GOD like path one must remember that not everyone who goes to church is pious and upstanding. When we detach ourselves from the outcome we are able to become better manifesters. In many cases we must come alive and alleviate the fear of walking in and speaking our truth so as to be of service and value to the community. In a way I manifested this because I want my fundraiser to be successful.

Spiritual Awakening: 2015 A Year Of Growth And Expansion

Spiritual Awakening: 2015 A Year Of Growth And Expansion!

At 12:00 AM on January 1, 2015 I declared 2015 as The Year For Growth and Expansion. As we are now 27 days into the year I can say that my spiritual growth and expansion coupled with personal growth and expansion is well under way. I had a chance to re examine the way I was doing things and how I was blocking myself from expanding and growing. As I sat in reflection this morning I thought how many people reading this entry are experiencing the same feelings I am that may be holding them back from becoming an action taker? I then realized that there are certain tools being placed before me to help me in my desire to grow personally, professionally, and spiritually. A great example was the gifts my brother and sister-in-law gave me as the tea helps me to relax along with the candle and the CD that I bought with the gift card they gave me. With the utilization of these 3 I have been able to relax and reflect while making some adjustments to the way I do things and in the last 3 weeks I can say I have noticed changes. I now realize when I am not at my best and can accept that and make adjustments accordingly.  I have begun to be cognizant of what serves me and what does not serve me and as a result have been able to improve my life by continuing to make a mind, body, soul connection. As I have written about detaching from the results I have learned that all I can do is put certain things out their and allow for GOD to bring them to fruition.  I have learned that through the spiritual awakening process there will be those who do not honor commitments and who will let you down. When this happens detach from them and separate yourself from them. A new anthem I have is if that person can not bring joy, happiness, and prosperity to you then it is best to cut the chords and never look back.

 When you decide to grow and expand a key element is to commit to not looking back. So many times we get caught up in the might have been, the could of been, or should have been that we hold ourselves back from the growth and expansion that awaits us.  It is important to not look back but at the same time not to look that far forward so you can be in the moment and allow things to flow to you and from you. If you want to have growth you must seek growth and then help others to grow.If you want to have expansion you must be willing to expand and then help others to expand. I have  found that after I sit in reflection and make an effort to let go that life improves. A great reminder is that everything is in divine order just the way it is meant to be.  To make 2015 a year of growth and expansion I recommend that you eliminate the might of been, could have been, and should have been attitude and accept what is and if you do not like it look to GOD to help you change the situation.

Spiritual Awakening: Let It Go!!!

Spiritual Awakening: Let It Go!!!

 As 2014 fades in the rearview mirror and 2015 begins to appear in the windshield I think of the most important lesson learned through the spiritual awakening process in 2014, Let It Go!!! The greatest action we can take is to let go of people and things that no longer serve us.  As difficult as it may be to severe relationships that no longer serve us it is necessary if we are to move forward in a positive direction of our goals and our dreams thus allowing us to develop spiritually. In letting go we release negativity that may have  created blockages in our personal and professional life thus allowing us to be open to receive more positive experiences in our life. Sometimes we must take a serious look at the people we associate with and see how they enhance our life and what they are doing to lift us. In looking at the people we associate with we can see a lot of ourselves and if we see flaws in them we can look at those flaws as a reflection of ourselves and do something to improve our own flaws so that we can continue to evolve spiritually. Recently I had a situation with someone who committed to making a donation to The American Cancer Society Relay For Life and when asked for the donation he got all defensive and told me via the phone it is out of my hands I lodged a formal complaint against you with The American Cancer Society. I told him are you friggin kidding me over $18.70 when you are the one who made the pledge. This is someone who was pointing the blame on me say I don’t like your attitude instead of  seeing where he contributed to the problem. I was upset that he forged a complaint and then thought really I have raised $1564.82 so far for The American Cancer Society Relay For Life of West Boca Raton and have  garnered many accolades over my 15 years of fundraising that they will most likely take it from where it came and we will turn the page and move forward. I know I will more than make up for the $18.70 that this man didn’t donate simply by sharing http://main.acsevents.org/goto/jdogg2  and having people make donations. In bringing it up here for the last time I am able to let go and put my energy into the positive things that people are doing  for The American Cancer Society Relay For Life of West Boca Raton.

January 16: Know that no one is capable of making you upset without ...  In letting go of the negative and focusing on the positive like the product donations from Doreen Virtue, Louise Hay, Dr. Wayne Dyer, Serena Dyer, Michael Neil, Sonia Choquette, Joyce Meyer,  Lisa Eva Gold, and World Wrestling Entertainment I have been able to shift my  energy and improve on my vibrational field so as to attract more positive results in my quest to create a world with less cancer and more birthdays.

Spiritual Awakening: Trick Or Treating With A Purpose!!!!

Spiritual Awakening: Trick Or Treating With A Purpose!!!

 

Just For Halloween – 2012 Halloween Light Show – Gangnam Style1810-trick-or-treat-2880x1800-holiday-wallpaper.jpg As I awoke today I was given a message on this Halloween to Trick Or Treat With A Purpose!!!! Though I am 49 years old and a little bit old to go door to door I answered this call from my spiritual guides and began to post the following message on Facebook and Twitter, TRICK OR TREAT Instead of candy I am asking everyone to visit http://main.acsevents.org/goto/jdogg2 and donate to help those affected by cancer. I put it out there and detached from all expectations and decided to just let it flow as it may and  understand that those meant to donate will visit the site and make a donation. As I continued through the morning posting this message I received the message to go to Starbucks like I do each Friday but instead of giving out hugs today hang a sign that says Strike Out Cancer Today and to dress up as a baseball player and to play the role of relief pitcher.  I made a sign on my computer and went to Starbucks, where I am now writing this entry from. Again I am detaching from the expectations and just allowing things to flow and those that are meant to come my table will do so and make a donation and any money collected will be more than I had when I started.  The idea is to use the resources we have to Trick Or Treat With A Purpose Today!!! We have a great opportunity to spread our message and to shine our light so that the entire world becomes illuminated.

il_570xN.499073771_b7vf.jpgImagine there is a knock on the door and as you hand out the candy you hand out sheets with bible verses on them as well. If not bible verses perhaps affirmations or quotes. This will allow you to share your spiritual awakening with others and perhaps help people to either get on a spiritual path or to continue on their spiritual path, You may get some blow back by taking this action to share your message. Another great thing to do is to hand out messages from the ascended masters and explain that Jesus is an ascended master. In using Halloween and trick or treating as a catalyst to spread the word you will be trick or treating with a purpose.

Spiritual Awakening: In Your Face!!!

Spiritual Awakening: In Your Face!!!

I can not tell you how many times along my spiritual awakening journey that I wanted to look at someone who was being negative or who responded to me in a negative way and say in your face. Understanding that people will not always resonate with me or do things the way I would do them has allowed me to not be confrontational and to continue in a positive direction of my goals and objectives in my personal and professional life.

Relay For Life Logo 2014 Metro omaha relay for lifeIf you are an avid reader of this blog you know my passion for raising funds for The American Cancer Society Relay For Life of West Boca Raton. While promoting and seeking donations recently I posted  in a Jaycees Group and one of their members replied with this to my request.

you need to stop pushing this issue about donating. it  is NOT GOOD TO SHOVE IT DOWN PEOPLE’S THROATS. if this is what you want to do then YOU DO IT PRIVATELY but DO NOT PUSH THIS ONTO OTHERS.

Spiritual Awakening: Leave Expectations At The Door!!!

Spiritual Awakening: Leave Expectations At The Door!!!

Open-door-question.jpgThrough the spiritual awakening process an important aspect to learn and apply is that of detaching from expectations.  This lesson was very evident as I decided to put my passion into action and run POINTS FOR THE CURE FOOTBALL EDITION for The NCAA and NFL Games played from 10/22-10/28. I thought with all the chatter on Facebook and Twitter about football that this fundraiser for The American Cancer Society Relay For Life of West Boca Raton would be well received and the donations would start to pour in. I thought how easy, people agree to donate $.25 (25 cents) per point their team scored and then after the game visit http://main.acsevents.org/goto/jdogg2 and make their donation. I asked if their team was not playing that they donate $5 or if their team didn’t score at least 20 points that they would donate $5. I thought in taking action and promoting this concept that people would jump on board and the donations would simply flow in.  Boy was I mistaken I found out that many who profess to be doing well on social media are sometimes the excuse makers who are putting on a facade. After I got over my initial disappointment I began to meditate and I realized tat those who are going to participate and donate will do so and those meant to be involved will be. As soon as I turned back to my spirituality I realized that whatever money comes in at http://main.acsevents.org/goto/jdogg2 is a blessing. When I stopped focusing on all those who did not participate and started to show gratitude to those who did participate I felt better and realized that one must check the expectations at the door.

open doorAs you check  the expectations at the door  you begin to experience more joy as you allow things to flow and accept that not everyone will resonate with your message but the ones who do will support you. In checking our expectations at the door we allow ourselves to be open to receiving the messages that GOD wants us to hear and then we are able to take action and see what comes about.  In all we do we must change our perspective and be grateful for the chances we had to be of service and value and the lessons that we learned by taking action. I learned that perhaps Facebook and Twitter are not the best places to promote a project like POINTS FOR THE CURE or Fundraisers maybe it is better to go out into the community and share the message directly with the people.  I often say we never know who we will meet when out in the community and what doors may open. In the spiritual awakening process it is important to get out and share our journey as it might positively impact someone’s life.
