Know Yourself: Cultivate your spirit

There are so many people that are still in search for their place in the world. Some are on a conscious quest and others are searching and not really realizing that they are actually seeking some sort of significance in this chaotic place.  We need to know ourselves for direction in life and for the relationships (work, friendships, intimate) that we all desire.


Society has placed so much emphasis on appearance that we rarely take time for our inner self.  Our spirituality is so important.  The things that we feel strongly about, your morals, your ideals, private thoughts, things that we hear and see (propaganda) all begin to form the essence of who you are.  If YOU are not consciously aware of the negative things that surround you, you will be conformed into those things without choice.  


Society has dictated that we focus on appearance. We have become slaves to jobs, fashion, material goods, services and entertainment.  Anything that is needed to cultivate the spirit is left up to you.  You MUST seek this on your own. This is the one thing that is NOT commercialized.  We are told what to eat, drink, drive, buy, how to look and then told what drugs to take when all these things have made us sick or "crazy".  We are literally the walking dead.  Getting in touch with your spirit brings new life. It changes your attitude, reduces stress and many times encourages others to ask, "What have you been doing?"  


How many of us can answer this question? WHO AM I? 


CHALLENGE:  Try answering this question without including any possessions in the answer (degree, type of job, auto, home, etc.)


Our spirits are in need of rejuvenation. Getting to the essence of your true being is fulfilling.  It's what we need to allow us to function on a higher level. 

Get to know yourself. Your spirit deserves it!
