Answering the Call



So answering the call, living in service to the Gods, How does one do that? Mostly it's a matter of not turning away. When you see someone in need and you know they need to talk, you ask them how they are doing. When you know they are dealing with stuff you listen, give advice and generally be a support person. If it's more obvious give them food, water, money, whatever you can. AND with hold judgements. So what if the buck you give a homeless person goes into a bottle of cheep booze. Hell if I were in that situation I'd need some adult beverages on a regular basis. Wouldn't you? Another thing you do is allow yourself to be an agent of change. When you have the random thought to share something with someone, do it. Wisdom comes from many places, books, stories, movies, the internet. If you see something that makes you think of someone share it with them. Don't forget the coincidences. Being an agent of the Gods means being open to the coincidences that help people along in their path. If need be point out the interplay between you that shows the hand of God (or the paw print of Coyote) don't shy away from it as weird behavior because lots of times people don't see the miracles happening in their path because they are busy with looking for the ginormous flashing road signs and life altering moments not realizing that most often little course corrections are cumulative and bring one to places they never thought they'd see.
I can't tell you how often I've said, "If you had told me a year ago that I would be doing X, I'd have told you that you were crazy. " and often there aren't big changes just little cumulative differences as I go along in life that become all the difference in the world. Well there are also those Improbability Drive level changes that alter your reality and life and how you think things work, but those are pretty rare. But mostly, don't turn away from your fellow human.
