Spiritual Awakening: Listen Up!!!
As I sat and actively listened to The Imagine Dragons Song, Radioactive, I began to think how many messages are we missing as we travel along our spiritual path because we are not really actively listening. Through out the spiritual awakening process it is important to remember that GOD gave us 2 ears and one mouth so we should listen twice as much as we speak. As I am out and about in the community working on writing blog entries and places like Starbucks, Panera Bread, and Dunkin Donuts I make it a point to tune in to people around me so that I can be of service and value to others. As I begin to overhear people speaking about different topics I find a way to simply go over and introduce myself as you never know where that may lead. In becoming an active listener you will find opportunities to interact with others and thus move further along your spiritual path as you never know where that interaction will go. On many occasion I have been very successful be it obtaining donations for Relay For Life, by the way my donation page is http://main.acsevents.org/goto/jdogg4, or securing guests for my TV Show, The Anything Bucket, which airs on www.wrpbitv.com on Tuesday at 6:30 PM EDT, or simply looking for gigs to emcee. The key is to check the ego at the door and not to be afraid of what the person or people you approach will say. In detaching from outcomes and simply implementing a philosophy of some will, some won’t, some waiting, so what, next you will find yourself moving forward in a positive direction of your goals and your dreams.
In following your dreams and becoming an active listener you will find yourself belonging to your city. As a result you will begin to attract the people who will become lifters and supporters who will move you forward in your quest to become spiritually enlightened. This song by Glenn Frey remind us not to forget about our roots and to listen to our heart and follow our heart as we continue to search for our personal, professional, and spiritual identity. In listening to the messages that are coming to us we can began to conceive things in our mind, believe them in our heart, and as a result achieve them. When you sit down and listen to the messages you find that you belong and that you have the power to answer your calling and make positive changes in your life.
