The Spirit from Within

By Ron Nowakowski

A point in time

This article marks my 100th monthly collection of thoughts. These have been published monthly for over eight years and somehow it seems like I have just begun.

Some tell me that my articles should be published now in book form with all thoughts in it for you to enjoy the inspirational and self help readings. This could be simply titled “The Spirit From Within”.

I have another dream I would like to fulfill. Since I am also a professional speaker, I would very much like to take each article and speak about them, expanding my thoughts to an audience of interested listeners. What a great way to bring my thoughts out further and for people to pose questions and ponder solutions to their life’s difficulties.

You will notice that, in all of my writings, I never tell people what to do. I simply suggest a way or direction and leave the people with choices. Furthermore, they can customize the ideas to fit their own unique situations.

I like that approach and hope you appreciated that as well.

With the many directions that my life is taking me, I have decided to stop this writing for now and wait for those many written thoughts sent out to land in the various areas of people’s lives. They will tell me what I should do next.

I will share something with you that I have not told many.

When I am ready to write (it’s a feeling), my pen begins and in 15 to 20 minutes, the new article is complete. I rarely know its title, until it is complete.

In over eight years I have not missed one Native Journal deadline to hand in the new piece for publishing. The editors of this newspaper are second to none, and are doing a superb job with constant professional layout. All of you can be very proud to have this journalistic talent available to you.

My deepest wish for all of you is happy life, and fulfilled life, with great successes. Also, may all of your tomorrows be better than the ones you have seen.

Editor’s note: Native Journal wishes you well, Ron, and we all thank you for your words of wisdom over the years.
