Spirituality is a way of life

 

We come to this earth to live our lives, fulfil the purpose of life as we evolve, learn and teach others through our existence and then move on to another from of life as we go back to our creator.

 

Our connection and understanding of the spiritual world depends upon our connectedness to the ancestors. When we are born, we are more of spiritual beings than we are,when we are older. This is because our minds are pure and uncorrupted by life, its complications and our opinions of it. As babies we are still closer to the Lord so we take what comes before us as it is and we ask no questions based on common sense and reason.

 

As we grow older we forget about our innocence and we lose it all as we try to live our own lives and form our own opinion of it. We get lost in the busy life as we learn from life experiences and challenges. We tend to acquire new skills and listen to each and every technique that promises us better results in our lives. As we acquire education and we learn what other people found and put together for us in order to shape us into what this world expects from us. At this stage we lose the connection we have with our creator. We do things that other people expect us to do and then end up thinking the way society wants us to think. At some stage we live our lives for others peoples’ expectations  and forget about what is inside of us.

 

Often kids are advised to choose their careers based on the job market, supply and demand and the status of a career. During this time, we only think about what we can achieve if we choose a certain type of work. We don’t really think about what one enjoys doing as a person. What you enjoy is what feels right inside, what makes you excel and grow as a human being and a spiritual being. It is not always what pays better but then again what type of remuneration are we looking for? Often people are pushed to achieve more and study further but at the end of the day, they don’t get the satisfaction that their hearts desire.

 

Our spirituality speaks to us everyday as we grow older but we chose not to listen. We worry too much about other peoples’ opinions of us and what could go wrong should we chose to listen. When we ignore to feed our spirituality we end up being successful in one part of our lives when the other part is suffering dismally. I have seen people who are forced into careers they don’t like because of the difficulties we are faced with in our society. So many people went to teaching by default and they ended up being unhappy teachers in the classroom. I know that there is nothing much we can do about this situation at the moment because we are already way in too deep in these problems. As a result of this defect, some teachers are unhappy all their lives and when you asked them, they tell you, “this was never my first choice of career”.

Others will even study further and improve their skills while they fall deep into the kind of life that doesn’t really satisfy their spirituality. Now this is a reality of this life that we live in. It gives us hints that something is wrong but takes away the options we have when it comes to the solutions.

During this stage of our lives we think mostly about what life brings us and less about what we can bring to this life. One becomes entangled in the roller coaster of life s’ challenges and realities that we forget about the  spirituality side of things. When we feel that sense of emptiness inside, when things don’t seem to add up we need to take a breather and think again…

If we force right ahead, we neglect the soulful life that presents itself and want recognition from us. We end up being left alone by the powers that be, to fend for ourselves. At this stage things normally get out of hand and everything breaks lose. Others have called it mid life crisis, being out of touch with reality or simple losing one s’ mind. I know so many people who have quit their jobs, I don’t know how many times, people who were forced to change careers or those who got fired for innocent mistakes. This is what happens when one gets into a career by default, at some stage it catches up with you and turns your life upside down.

 

So many people are in the wrong careers but they don’t talk openly about it because there is not platform that allows them to do just that. At times you find that it is not just the career itself but it is the spiritual side of life that is not acknowledged thus it brings about these feelings of being unsatisfied in life.

 

If it happens that you are unhappy about your job, why not seek help and find advice based on those feelings alone. Based on the thoughts in your head and the feeling of uneasiness inside. Talk about it and find out which piece is missing in your puzzle before you worry yourself into a sickness or mental disorder. I have heard of people who get sick only when they are about to go to work-I was one of those hahaha!. Atleast  I knew that my guides were not happy with the kind of work I was doing.

 

In the meantime people can embrace their spirituality and incorporate it into their daily lives. This way you can manage to communicate with your spiritual side of things, ask it to accept the job you are doing now, even if it is not your first choice of career. This way you can invite your guides into your life and have them lead you into a life of fulfilment from within. When ever you feel that emptiness inside,  it means that a part of our life as a spiritual being is not taken care of. You can change careers all you want but the space inside will not be filled until you turn to the food of your soul.

 

I am by no means trying to say that education is not important, no ways. What I am saying is that we have become too much of followers than leaders in this life. When we look back in the history of life, people have been inventors and founders of certain things and discoveries. People founded education, motor vehicles, radiography, nursing profession, science, insurance companies and not to mention law itself. Now, our society today, just follows on other peoples’ findings and enter into other people’s invention with no questions asked. We seem to limit ourselves when it comes to being creative, like people from the past. What controls us the most is the economy situation and our will to fit into a place that is predetermined by someone else for us. We end up jumping from one business to another trying to beat the inflation and make more money in the end. May be there is nothing wrong with this for those that it works for them but the majority of the people are seeking  answers and they end up feeling empty inside.

All I am saying is, when you feel lost and uncertain at times, tap into your spiritual side of things and find direction.

 

We are all connected to our spirituality but the levels vary depending on the powers we carry with us. Some people are more connected than others because, they have a calling or may be they were just taught about ancestors from an early age. Others have no connection at all because, it is not anywhere near them in their bloodline of family relations here on earth or on the other side. This is caused by the fact that ancestors work through blood relatives and they take different times to show up in our lives and if it is not time yet for your ancestors to ask for help, they will just lay dormant until the time is right. The time is only right when there is a right candidate here on earth from the family line to accept the calling and use these powers to heal the ancestors and the family.  

 

Our connectedness to the spiritual world hits us again when we grow older. By this time we take all life lessons and create a new perspective of life based on our own experience and the new reality of life that we have attained. They say we become closer to the truth just because we are nearing of end of lives and are getting ready to meet our creator, again. To me this makes a lot of sense because as babies we are connected but we lose it all as we learn what people teach us on earth and then as we grow older, we go back to our own intuition and think from within, this automatically makes us spiritually inspired people. As a children we listen to adults and do as we are told. During this time our spirituality is based on what our elders dictate of it. We live life and prove some theories wrong with the aim of setting ourselves apart from the norm. As we evolve we make mistakes and learn from it. What we learn makes us the adults that we grow up to be.

 

I wish we could concentrate on our youth in terms of teaching them the realities of life based on spirituality.  This could make things easy for them to do more and beat certain challenges that seem to hit us all but nothing is being done about it. Spiritually inspired people seem to think more rationally and have a certain way of embracing life and its challenging in a way that make this life a better place for all.

 

Our spirituality brings us closer to the Lord. When we are closer to the Lord we look at life in a different light, a much more positive way.

<br /> <br /> Beautiful article Sis Nontobeko, I felt like I was reading the story of my life, everything you saying here is so true.  Money and security does not guarantee hapiness, doing what we are<br /> meant and built to do is the only way we will be happy. It may be hard to change once we have been accustomed to a certain lifestyle  but I believe its worth it.  I think Fear is<br /> the enemy here , lets become fearless and trust ourselves, our hearts and our bodies more.<br /> <br /> <br /> <br />

<br /> <br /> Hello sisi<br /> <br /> <br /> I am still very tird from the weekend, we were fully booked but it all went well.<br /> <br /> <br /> Its important to use these powers and remember that God makes it possible. Giving back and helping others in the process is the best way to heal ourselves.<br /> <br /> <br /> We need to create a culture of helpin gone another without looking for a personal gain in the process.<br /> <br /> <br />  <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />
