Finding Your Spiritual Center In A Chaotic World

If you were to ask me how I see the world we currently live in, my honest response would be that we seem to be in a state of mass confusion. There is much misinformation, upheaval, conflicting reports, fake news and conspiracy theories these days. And most of us seem to be struggling trying to find our balance amid all this chaos.

Herein lies the problem: how do we reconcile what we are being told by so many contradictory sources, when it conflicts with our own personal beliefs, thoughts and feelings? Do we trust ourselves enough from our inner guidance system, to assess what is right and true for us, even if it does not match the opinions of others?

Are you the type of individual that will always follow the agenda set out before you, even though at times it leaves you with feelings of doubt? Or perhaps you are a person who makes your choices strictly led by your own beliefs, intuition and spiritual awareness?

The only reasonable approach to any threatening situation at hand is to pay more attention to what you are honestly thinking, and how you are feeling, and how you choose to deal with trying events, rather than obsessing about what may, or may not happen.

It would make things much simpler if we could simply hide away in some cave for a while, or live on a desert island, until all the turmoil blows over. However, here is the catch, if these troublesome circumstances and events in current affairs finally find a way to resolve themselves, how do we prepare for the next time?

Somewhere along the road we have to position ourselves for all that is coming before us. It will not always be bad, nor will it always be good, it is simply the way the events will unfold. And we must find our own center, our core to remain grounded in. The best way to do this is with your spiritual practice.

My spirituality enables me to see clarity for myself when I reflect on current world events, as if I am looking at it from afar. That leaves no attachment for me as to what others views, expectations or opinions may be. After all, we all have an opinion.

Is it okay to pay attention to reputable outside sources? Absolutely, as long as our decisions come from what we feel is inherently true to ourselves, and the higher self.
