It is not possible to awaken in anothers bed

In order to awaken it is necessary to rest in the awareness  of your own bed.  The bed being a metaphor of the mind. Often times it is possible to sleep walk through this maze of infinite possibilities we call life, missing the purpose of this wonderful experience.  The opportunity to be free lives within each of us, patiently waiting to be expressed outwardly.  It can be found in silent moments of serenity.  Meditation is the time one takes to consciously connect with creator.  This where the true nature of our being exists.  The core essence of who and why we are here.  Often times folks seek prosperity in the external material form and while outer stuff can bring some happiness true joy comes from within.  I used to think happiness meant another pair of shoes. So I shopped.  I had accumulated so many shoes I could not see the bottom of my closet.  A devastating earthquake hit Haiti.  As I watched the victims on television without shelter and subject to the harsh weather elements with no food, clean water or shoes my heart opened.  The TV camera captured the image of an innocent little girl and I experienced a space of emptiness and awareness that was different. She had no shoes nor shelter yet she had this look of hope and serenity in her eyes. I realized with one pair of healthy feet I had a somewhat spoiled outlook of life. Shopping was a temporary fix to a  inner longing for peace and self love. What is mine to do?  I connected with my heart and cleaned the closets of my home and more importantly my mind.  Peace can be found in the stillness of a single moment.  Peace grows from within and is cultivated in meditation.  Within each of us the true essence of an awakening begins. Life's purpose is individual and intimate. Each moment is an opportunity to grow and learn.  The classroom is vastly abundant and prosperity is a good thing.  There is enough for everyone.Be still and know.   For more information click here
