Alarm Clock

Inspiration can come from many places as you explore your own nooks and crannies, finding your way through material existence and into the inner world that gives your life meaning.

Moreover the alarm clock comes from many places, and more often than not the alarm clock can cause alarm due to the sometimes cruel nature of the alarm clock of life, that is the one that has been ringing in your heart and inside your head.

Perhaps you have not been paying attention to the calling of your inner dimension.

The alarm keeps ringing, asking for your undivided attention.

The field of long-lost dreams

Once you recognize this alarm clock, it may alarm you into seeing the promises you have not kept, a reflection of your field of long-lost dreams.

Once you stop to look inside, you may begin to sense why you are here on Mother Earth and what your own personal mission may well be.

Reaching for snooze

Perhaps, once awakened, you will finally stop reaching for the snooze button and listen to the inner world your Seity calls you to believe in.

Looking inside may not hand you a complete blueprint of your destiny. It may show you the next honest step you can take here on Mother Earth. What will you do with what you have begun to see?

The common thread of humanity

This alarm clock is not the one beside your bed, waking you for another day you may already dread.

For dread is a common thread in the modern-day world—the one where we all must live.

After a lifetime of service inside the corporate machine, a Japanese friend wondered aloud whether this was all there was and what life really meant.

Writing gratitude

The alarm asks what you can do next, how you can direct your gratitude, and what it means to be you in this world with your whole heart, soul, and mind.

Sometimes the storyboard is simply resignation to your life’s lot—and that says a lot. Yet the familiar road can also be paved with regret, sorrow, and the unfulfilled promise of what could have been.

Sacred ground

Don’t get me wrong—if the work you are doing fills you with purpose and gives your life meaning, perhaps the alarm clock has quieted and you have already found your sacred ground.

Not everyone can see a clear vision of who they want to be. When your own direction is unclear, the outside world and the work assigned to you shapes your identity.

Seity and the childhood dream

But truly, take a peek and see: can you recall your childhood dream? The one you had when you were just a kid—not the one your parents told you to pursue, but the one you heard in some of the earliest words within your spirit. Those words may very well be the voice of your Seity.

Understanding beyond words

No one can directly experience another person’s inner world—their qualia, the qualities of their experience. As we wander through the nooks and crannies of our own lives, perhaps we miss the alarm clock calling us toward a more purposeful scene in the movie of our own special life.

Everyone has an antenna, and the trick is to tune in to the voice of the inner world, calling you toward balance and a more homeostatic way of being.

A field of possibilities

The modern world is full of peril and detours. Thus, heeding the alarm clock may be your next step into your personal quantum field—a metaphor for possibilities waiting to explore.

Now some will say this is not real—fit in with a grin, bear the brunt of the world, and follow the path society has laid out for you.

Creating a world of one’s own

Yet this modern world also offers pathways to discover your life’s work. To work can be to thrive, to make the spirit come alive as you begin to create your own world.

Take a look and see where you are in the life you live, and remember—you reside under a brilliant shining star.

Take the time to pay attention to the possibilities in front of you as you move through the nooks and crannies of the human experience.

Create a space that is yours, shaped by the work you are called to do.

As you find your direction, the alarm may quiet, and you can begin to create your personal world.
