Today is Ash Wednesday, today is the beginning of Lent, and today I began a 40 day personal journey to Self Revelation.
For those of you who know me, you know that I am Catholic but not a very religious Catholic.
I do however feel that I am a very spiritual person; and as I dive deeper into my spiritual journey I am learning that the Divine is within and God is everywhere.
I am learning that when we sit in silent stillness, the Divine allows us to hear what our hearts and souls have to say – when we are able to calm the churning thoughts in our mind and sit; God speaks to us, and we are assured that everything we need to succeed is within us.
When we sit in silence, when we take the time to quiet our lives; we may hear the divine whisper to us…you are enough.
When we calm the churning of our minds, we realize that we are strong, we are beautiful, and we are loved.
We begin to understand that greatness was planted in us.
We begin to understand that if we let go, become vulnerable, give up preconceived notions and expectations, when we stop controlling every situation in life – we can love a little more, life can flow as planned, life can be easier, and the mundane days will soon turn to blissful moments.
