The awakening of spirit may take place through many different events like; attendance at ceremonies, giving birth, witnessing birth, being true to a higher calling, participation in healing programs or self-development seminars, etc. Once an awakening of spirit takes shape a person can no longer walk through the world asleep. They change. They become aware of the gift of life, become more loving, live in present moments, and practice forgiveness. However; even as personal growth takes shape, a person will encounter challenges, because no matter how pure a person’s intentions are; others may not be capable of a healthy interaction from a person who has embraced positive changes in their lives. Thus, a person on their healing journey continues to encounter doubt, fear, disbelief, anger and perhaps mean-spiritedness from others. For continued wellbeing the awakened person will inevitably disengage from others whose unsupportive worldviews perpetuates unhealthiness. Instead, the person whose spirit has awakened may simply send a silent blessing that another person’s path leads them to awakening. They pray that healing will take place in a gentle loving way within a heart that is hardened to healing. They understand that every path has stones, and that a person is given a choice to use these stones to build a solid foundation of wellness or an unhealthy barrier, it is a personal choice. With compassion and love, the awakened spirit focuses on profound gratitude of life and to making a positive difference to humanity, creation and to the next generation. It is with compassion that they send love forth, even to those hearts are closed to receiving it, because they know that love is fluid and belongs to every living spirit. All my Relations. (ejh)
