Spiritual Awakening: Keep On Moving!!!
Each time I watch this video I keep thinking about a lesson learned in the spiritual awakening process and that is to keep on moving and to gain mental clarity so that you can be of service and value while enhancing your personal, professional, and spiritual life. each day we will face challenges and we will see that the best laid plans of mice and men will go astray however we have choices to dwell on the detour or to accept the detour and get back on to our path. It is when we commit to being an action taker and accepting the fact that we can only control what our actions are and that what others do is out of control that we are able to move forward in our journey. One of my anthems is Matthew Wilder’s Nothings Going To Break My Stride.
Each time I get upset about someone not honoring a commitment I remember the lyrics of this song and I realize that getting upset and angry does not serve me and only hinders my progress be it in raising money for The American Cancer Society Relay For Life Of West Boca Raton, http://main.acsevents.org/goto/jdogg2, booking guest for my TV Show, The Anything Bucket, which airs on www.wrpbitv.com on Tuesday at 6:30 PM. representing The South Florida Gold of The American Basketball Association, The Miami Fury of The Women’s Football Alliance, securing emcee work, voice over work, or pubic address announcing, and doing marketing and media relations consultations. I have come to realize that all I can do is be impeccable with my work, don’t make assumptions, don’t take anything personally, and always do my best and everything will be as planned as everything is in divine order just the way it is meant to be. In not allowing the naysayers and haters to break my stride I have been able to achieve much success in my life. In not allowing cancelled appointments to upset me I have been able to move forward and achieve goals that I have set for myself thus creating a peaceful existence that allows me to remain connected to GOD.
As I sat on the bench in prayer at the cemetery today paying respects to my mom who passed a year ago the message for this blog entry came to me in the words Finding The Positive. Through challenging times my mom would find ways to make me and my brother feel better about the situations we were facing. As I sat on the bench all the positive memories started to come back. There was a sense of joy and sadness at the same time. I looked to the heavens and thanked god for all the time he gave me to have with my mom. I thanked my mom for all the great times she gave me over the year. I then wen to my car and retrieved the stone I brought with me to symbolize that I was at the cemetery, I cleansed it in the fountain and then found a place to place the stone and said a prayer. As I started the car I felt the presence of my mom telling me to stay positive.
