I remember when I was about six or seven years old, going to church with my grandmother. I used to have conversations in my head and asking, ‘if God created us, who created Her?’ This was not a question I could readily ask her or anyone else and get a good enough answer. Maybe, if I did ask the question it would not have taken me so long to get a better understanding.
Then again, maybe it was meant to be this way so I could learn and grow to really understand. Looking back on it now, I don’t think I would’ve understood what I understand now. Things do really happen on Divine Time, in Divine Order.
So, what does all this have to do with my passion?
For the longest time, I struggled to figure out what do to with my life after I left the Marine Corps. There, everything was structured. There was a plan, and you were performing as expected. It was the easiest job you could have. When I got out, everything changed. It felt as if I was freed, but with no sense of direction. The different things I got into were mostly about making money. I got interested in real estate because of the $ signs I saw during seminars from people who were making things happen in the industry. Then I went to find a regular job in IT because I had the background.
Something was missing from two things I got involved. I went into them with no real passion in heart. This left me with an empty feeling…a feeling of, ‘this is not it.’
Over the years, I’ve had psychics do readings to help me find my way; read many spiritual books; and meditated. I knew I was onto something when all I could focus on, at times, was spiritual books and learning as much as possible from the Great Teachers.
I could tell I found my passion when I was able to totally focus on something, day-in and day-out, without being bored. Do you have something like that in your life?
I decided that this was probably the best way to share my passion with others because it might help you find out. We are all really here to serve each other and I can’t think of any better way than to you help you bring out what it is you’re most passionate about.
So, how do you figure out what your passion or passions are?
I kind of mentioned it already…but, here’s the basic question you should be asking:
* What do I enjoy doing on a daily basis that I’m not bored with?
* What brings me peace of mind and takes me to another place when I do it? (I’m not talking about drugs here.)
* What do I enjoy doing that brings joy to myself and others?
I would love to hear some of your answers to the above questions as well as any thoughts you might have about this post.
Namaste!
Did you ever get your question answered as to who created your goddess?
My conclusion is that the entity that we call God does not exist in the terms that we think or have been brought up to think. There’s a new post I’m going to put on the blog that explains this. I hope you come back to read it.
