Spiritual Awakening: Finding Strength After Superstorm Sandy!!!!
As the news broke of millions without electricity and many who lost everything in what is being refered to as Superstorm Sandy I began to wonder where the strength to carry on from the people affected by the storm will come from. I realized that it will come from those who are spiritually intune and understand it is not about fame or glory it is about helping those in need. I read many stories of compassion like the women who hung out a sign I have electric plug in your phone here or the restaurant that cooked for an entire community at no charge. There are many stories of positivity coming out of the devastation. I watched the Steelers-Giants Game on 11/4/12 and the commentators kept saying that The Steelers could have flown in Saturday as the hotel they had orginally booked was available and the team said no use the rooms for those that really need it. The Steelers won 24-20, I think Karma may have played a role showing us that when we sacrifice for others we are rewarded.
Today’s Blog is dedicated to my mother, Judith Miller who was dedicated to helping me grow personally and professionally. Mom passed on July 5, 2012 due to a heart attack. Since her diagnosis of Non-Operable Metastatic Lung Cancer in March of 2009 she fought and she was winning until that final breath on July 5. As many people know I was very close to my mom and am grateful to have had her love and dedication. I wrote and dedicated the following poem to her:
Mother Teressa was a dedicated women whose mission to change the world one person at a time has left an indelible imprint on the social and spiritual landscape of the world. So when you strya from your path ask yourself what am I dedicated to? Then get back on the path and help to make a differecne in the lives of others.
