Spiritual Awakening: Breaking Eggs and Ruffling Feathers!!!
As you awaken spiritually you will find yourself with many broken eggs as you stand in your beliefs and follow your passion thus you will ruffle some feathers along the way. Sometimes broken eggs seem like a mess however when you look at what you can do with the broken eggs you will find the the mess becomes a message. Today(5/21/2019) I was out collecting donations for The American Cancer Society Relay For Life and like I do on most days I plan out places to go and garner donations. I usually approach businesses unannounced which can be a good thing at times as while at others it can be a bad choice as many people in leadership roles at a business put their guard up. Most of my encounters were great and the businesses let me announce who I was and what I was doing while others said it was against their policy. One GM gave me such an attitude that I said to myself the hell with their policy I am making my announcement anyway. I did and I had one patron give me a $20 donation. The GM was not pleased and will probably complain about me. This won’t be the first time. I called the corporate office and their marketing director was very nice and I apologized if I overstepped any boundaries. The marketing director went as far as sending me an email inviting me to set up a Give Back Night for The American Cancer Society Relay For Life. I realized that not everyone is ready to break some eggs and ruffle some feathers as they operate from a position of fear and do not get to know the people they are interacting with through out the day. We all can be of service and value to one another simply by breaking some eggs and ruffling some feathers. In breaking eggs and ruffling feathers we make people think through our actions. Many times bigger corporations simply lack the foresight of empowering and inspiring their employees and as a result they don’t see the big picture and thus forget about the importance of building relationships.
As you awaken spiritually you will find yourself out of focus as you have so many things running through your mind as become more and more aware of the power that you have. To harness this power you are going to want to step back take a deep breathe and focus on your task at hand. As you begin to understand that it is when you are focused you gain clarity of purpose you will see yourself attracting more peace, love, joy, and prosperity into your life. I have come to learn that when you stay focused and alleviate the distractions that your personal, professional, and spiritual life is enhanced. In staying focused you will see that what used to trigger you no longer affects you as you have awakened to the concept that you are a divine child of GOD and GOD wants you to prosper. It is when we stay focused and don’t allow distractions to get in our way that we have the most success. 
One of the tools in my spiritual tool box that has helped me to answer my calling and come alive to be of service and value to my community has been the serenity prayer. In having this displayed somewhere that I can see it daily has helped to keep me centered and grounded in the good times and through the challenging times.
