Spiritual Awakening: Bloom Where You Are Planted!!!
In the spiritual awakening process it is important to bloom where you are planted. So many times I have heard people well if I move to xyz from abc things will get better. Things will only get better if you commit to changing your self and the way you act. If you are bitter and angry nothing changes until you remove the bitterness and the anger. If you come from a position of lack nothing changes until you embrace the fact that their is an abundance being provided to you. The other day I was speaking to someone about being a guest on my TV Show, The Anything Bucket, which airs on www.wrpbitv.com on Tuesday at 6:30 PM EST. The conversation turned to the concept of how far down the rabbit hole do you want to go? As I hung up the phone I thought of Alice and Wonderland and her journey down the rabbit hole and how at the end her perspective had changed. She understood that wherever she ended up she would have to thrive there. You can move time and time again but until you remove personal and professional baggage that inhibits spiritual growth everything remains the same.
We have all heard the term the grass is greener on the other side. This is not true the grass is greener where you water it. To expand and grow one must look at and answer the question of how are you taking care of your grass. Are you embracing your divinity and creating a relationship with GOD? Are you nurturing yourself allow yourself to evolve? Many times we look at other people’s lives and see them as they are today and not where they came from or the journey they are traveling.
As the final buzzer went off, The Miami Heat were victorious 117 -92 over The Indiana Pacers in Game 6 of The Eastern Conference Finals Advancing to their 4th straight NBA Finals I kept thinking about how this relates to having a spiritual awakening. The Heat were determined to take strong action after a game five loss. Taking action is an important step in the spiritual awakening process. They saw a deficiency and rather than make excuses they took action to fix it. In the loss The Indian Pacers learn what they need to do to get past The Heat as The Heat has knocked them out of the playoffs for the last 3 years. The Pacers now know that they must make some adjustments. In the spiritual awakening process one will experience loss. In working through the loss you will grow by making adjustments that lead to victory.
During your spiritual awakening you will become filled with fire that will fuel the energy for you to create the life that you desire. In being consumed with the fire of spirit you will be able to find clarity in purpose as you are creating a oneness consciousness with GOD that will allow you to step into your greatness and achieve the prosperity which is your birthright. As you are consumed by the fire of spirit it is imperative that you write your goals down and that you put a plan of action in place to achieve these goals. As you work toward your goals and answer your you will find that the heat is on and GOD will continue to feed that heat so the fire is always kindled inside. There will be set back and there will be times that you may want to extinguish the fire. Do not extinguish the fire with in keep in burning because as long as there is one burning ember inside of you a flame can be turned into an inferno thus allowing for great things to happen in your personal and professional life.
In being immersed in the fire that burns inside you will begin to light the creative juices that will propel you forward in the positive direction of your dreams. The heat is on side of you and now is the time to turn it up and set a fire inside others. In shining your light and sharing your burning embers you effectively change the world one person at a time. In sharing positivity and being of service and value the fire spread and when the fire spreads for good everyone involved benefits.
As I sat down at my Starbuck’s in Plantation I asked the universe to guide me and help me with a topic for today’s entry. I put my feet flat on the floor, sat straight up with my palms up, I was ready to receive the message and then on you tube I found this song and I received the message, write about peace, so here it is today’s entry Peace Comes From The Inside.
I invite everyone to get on the peace train and put differences aside, check egos and judgements at the door and realize that we are are all one. On October 24 we marked Global Oneness Day. This day was about peace, love, and happiness recognizing that we are all connected. I spent the day finding people to share spirituality with and while attending the singles party I connected witha few people who understood the concept of peace and namaste and we had a great time sharing.
It is when we find that peaceful easy feeling that we move forward and hear the messages better so that we can act upon then and positively impact our life and the lives of others. What messages are you receiving when you get into the peaceful place that resides in you?
People ask me all the time JDOGG How do you stay so peaceful? The answer is I make every effort to breathe. I will admit there are times that I do get upset and frustrated and at those time I do my best to find the place in my soul that allows me to get centered and grounded. Many times it is realizing that the issues are the person I am dealing with and not mine and sometimes the best thing I can draw on is the serenity prayer.
