What’s your Mission?

My Spiritual Truth, until quite recently, included only 2 parts: we are here to 1) share our gifts and 2) learn our lessons. I’ve just added a 3rd part: 3) we each also have a mission or a message that we are expressing through our lives and our work.

Jim Carrey has a mission: to help people let go of their concerns for a while. Gandhi and Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. had missions – social change through non-violence.

My mission is to show the world that animals are people, too, and that we are all divine beings.

You have a mission, too. Have you defined it yet? When you do, you become so clear and so powerful  – energy just flows  through you and gives you purpose. Everything gets viewed through that lens and priorities automatically get set in your daily life. You are on purpose and on your mission!

When I was planning my first Elephant Blessings Retreat in Thailand, I found the perfect place for 2017. And I can’t wait to go there. However, I want to be with the elephants like yesterday, so I kept looking for another wonderful place that fit my standards: elephants were free to be themselves, no rides, no entertaining, no anything except whatever they felt like doing and the people involved had to come from a place of love and respect.

I looked at a lot of wonderful places and even rejected the Elephant Nature Park until I saw this video. And then I knew that ENP was the place for me. Because Lek’s mission is palpable. Because her love and respect for the elephants is unmistakable. Because I was inspired to be part of her mission.

So we are going to Elephant Nature Park for the first Elephant Blessings Retreat in January 2016 and I think it is going to be a magical, once in a lifetime experience.

Watch this video and I think you’ll agree: this is an extraordinary woman doing extraordinary things for elephants and people.

Her mission is clear and I hope that as you watch her living her truth and spreading her message, you get clearer on who you are and what you’re up to in the world.
