There are times when we feel lost in life.  Lost in the shuffle, the mental and phyical clutter, constant noise or just in our own personal jail of a continous loop of thoughts.  But how do we break free?  I think the first part of this answer lies in determining where our bondage truly lies, by getting real with what motivates our everyday lives.

I’m starting this year by asking myself a question that will allow me to live from the most honest part of my being:  What is most important to me and how can I serve from this place?  Every morning and every night.

If I am honest, the answer to this question may not always align with what I claim to verbally hold in high regard,my connection with God, my integrity and family.  There are days when I may find that what was most important to me was not being free from the noise of this world but indulging it by remaining in the rat race,  focusing on the accumulation of more things or participaing in actions that dont represent the best part of me.  I will have to forgive myself, restart and move on the next day.  But Im certain that it will cause a concious shift that serves to align me with my higher self.

I dont think anyone is truly lost, we are just closed off to truth, the answer is always there if we ask with an open heart.
