Everyday when we awake we have another blessed opportunity to give our best to the world. A lot of people don’t have the chance do to illness or major adversities happening in their life. However we measure a spiritual awakening which I believe comes through humility, sometimes a traumatic event or just seeing the world as a place of such beauty and love that it hits you like a ton of bricks. For me I lived in an ego centred world for many years until I woke up, wanted more for myself and others. I had this tremendous shift that happened where I stopped judging others and really had to go deep into my soul for all the answers which were there all along. You know life is a journey! it’s so very precious, and the people I meet now in my everyday affairs always come aligned with my purpose . A state of tremendous emergency introduced me to my “other self” my guide , my intuition that makes decisions based on my heart rather than my intellect. I was asked by a very kind woman to write about awakenings this morning. And this is what I came up with. I know I’m not always perfect! Life presents challenges that we all have to move through with the wisdom that awakened us in the first place. Now it’s the simplicity of just wanting to shine the real me to the world instead of that ego based projection that was foolish at times. I had fun in my old ways , that led me into misery and discontent . But in my humble opinion it’s our choice if we can to be at our best, aim high and allow positive life force to work through every emotion perceptible to man or woman. Funny how many times throughout my journey that I heard “wake up Ryan!” Now I know that I really had too in order to live fully. Yes I get despondent and ponder over what this life is, what it means and why certain things happen. But do I really have to look that far outside myself for the answers which all always ready to present themselves to us if we just allow them??. Today is a blessed day. It’s a day of gratitude and appreciation. The moment we see ourselves for all of that which we can do and forget about the limitations we and others put on ourselves, life takes on more vitality! your energy perks up and happiness begins to take over the thoughts of discouragement. Many people have already achieved this blessing. We’re all a work in progress, but just being willing and open will take you to an exalted plane where dreams are crystallized into physical reality.
God Bless. Ryan John Phillips.
