Planting Seeds and Being Humble:
Becoming awakened spiritually is different than being “woke” as is used in today’s vernacular. It is a powerful experience usually resulting in a profound recognition of who you are and what we are as energy and how we truly relate to the divine aspects of the Universe. It is can be triggered by many things from a near death experience, the loss of a loved one, a serious illness, the list goes on. But it is very real. It is not the same as what political parties try to use as a divisive tactic.

Independence is an Illusion
Independence is an Illusion Not long ago, I noticed the tendency of people to tell children and women they must be independent. I found it odd.

We have all heard the story (and hopefully cracked the Bible open and actually read) about how Jesus fed the multitudes of people gathered to hear him speak with two fish and fives loaves of bread.

When They Go Low, We Go High
I have discussed the concept of Free Will (which is Divinely given but ruled by ego) and Divine Will (which is for lack of a better term, the “god principle) which is in all of us many times in the past. We are all incarnated with both of these attributes, and our job/lesson is to learn to recognize when our ego (Free Will) is ruling our decisions or if we are following Divine Will (which is always the better choice).
