The value of knowing yourself is priceless because it allows the mind to settle instead of needing a fantasy to be something that you’re not…
One of the insights revealed to me is having the awareness of my own presence. What is meant by this is to be aware of who I am and not try to be who I am not. When I began writing I was thinking of ways to get the message revealed to me to people. Just by the fact that I was writing I knew there was a valuable message to share about how my view of life became different. Shortly afterwards I started posting articles on social media sites. One day I was contacted by a site to write articles for them, I thought this was a great way to get my message some exposure. After about six articles the admin of the site said people were complaining my articles were more like teachings than inspirational, the admin asked if I could make them more inspirational. I thought about it and decided I couldn’t compromise the message revealed to me. I told the admin I wouldn’t change my style; I didn’t write another article for that site.
It was important for me to stand my ground on what was revealed to me; it’s just as important today. The value of knowing who you are is priceless because it allows the mind to settle instead of needing to make up a fantasy. I don’t fantasize about being this loving spiritual head in the clouds person; I am what I am. If there was such a thing as a spiritual laborer that would be me; I’m a blue collared spiritual person. I understand many things, but my feet are always planted firmly where I am. To me, if it’s not happening where I am it doesn’t really matter all that much. I’ve learned early on not to live in the fantasy mind trying to be something that I’m not. What this allows is to not have any fantasy energy within myself and in the process just be at peace with who I am. Not everyone agrees with my style of writing or what I write, but at the end of the day it’s me who I’m with and I’m grateful there’s no reason to fantasize about being something that I’m not…
