About this listen
Hello my friends, I’m Donald Lee and this is Expressing and Revealing Your Truth with Donald Lee. It’s a podcast in which I help you understand the truth about who you really are, and how you can express and reveal that truth in the world. To do that, I interview people who have had transformational spiritual experiences—the type of experiences that many of us wish we had, but never do. Yet by learning from my guests’ experiences, and the wisdom they gained from those experiences, all of us can glimpse a bigger vision of who we really are and how we can live our lives more fully, more peacefully, more lovingly.
Be sure to download my free mini ebook containing five of the 50 parables from my popular book, The Band Director’s Lessons About Life. These little parables are short, easy to read, inspiring, and also help you to understand more about who you really are. There is a link in the show notes to get your free ebook.
In this episode, I interview Brock Miller. Brock started a successful career as a musician. But, like so many musicians, got involved with alcohol and drugs. Alcohol became a part of his stage persona, his identity. This ended up destroying him—to the point that he was in a hospice and about to die from cirrhosis of the liver. Then he had a series of what we could call near death experiences. He describes it as going into a void and then seeing his life in the form of a sinusoidal wave like we might see on an oscilloscope. From this perspective he was able to forgive himself and to see that alcohol was really not part of who he was, and he could set it aside. Instead of dying, as expected, Brock sat up in his hospice bed and began to recover, to begin a journey of coming back to life. It has been a long journey back from the edge of death, a journey that is still ongoing. Yet, Brock’s story is one that can inspire all of us. So often, as we make poor choices in life and our life begins a downward spiral, we have to hit rock bottom before we come to our senses and begin to climb out of the pit we created for ourselves. This is what Brock has done, and it can be a source of hope and inspiration for all of us. I’m sure you will enjoy this wonderful conversation with Brock Miller.
