“We awaken by asking the right questions. We awaken when we see knowledge being spread that goes against our own personal experiences. We awaken when we see popular opinion being wrong but accepted as being right, and what is right being pushed as being wrong. We awaken by seeking answers in corners that are not popular. And we awaken by turning on the light inside when everything outside feels dark.”
-Suzy Kassem
How do the words above resonate with you?
Pause here for a moment and free yourself from distractions:
Take a deep breath in... exhale slowly... deep breath in... exhale slowly... deep breath in... exhale slowly... calm your mind and be present...
Reread the quote above... take your time and let it sink in...
How “woke” are you?
... think about that for a moment...
woke | adjective alert to injustice in society, especially racism.
as a political term of African American origin, refers to a perceived awareness of issues concerning social justice and racial justice. It derives from the African-American Vernacular English expression "stay woke", whose grammatical aspect refers to a continuing awareness of these issues.(Wikipedia).
What questions are you asking to gain the needed knowledge?
...what do you see things accepted as right that you believe to be wrong..?
Thought provoking questions are designed to inspire self-discovery, empowerment and happiness.
Free yourself this Friday and have some meaningful time with family, friends, or co-workers. Use these to start the conversation:
What’s the most sensible thing you’ve ever heard someone say?
...think back...dig deep...or maybe it was recently... explain...
What do you wish you spent more time doing five years ago?
...interesting question to ponder... be honest with yourself, knowing what you know now,,,
What does your joy look like today?
...what makes you happy... something you may have previously taken for granted...
Don’t miss your opportunity! Be intentional, encourage others to do the same and watch what happens.
You got this!
