| Today has been a fairly hard day for me. First day back at work, but I don't think that was the problem. It was more so the energy sucking I felt from my clients (one lady in particular, Lorraine, who spilled her whole life story to me during a nutritional counselling session). When I arrived in the parking lot at work my vision was really messed up. Everything was hazy .. and seemed unnatural. The energy in the air was draining. My eyes seemed to dart back and forth, back and forth. But it didn't really seem like I was looking through my eyes. I also had the sensation that I could feel peoples emotions. See who they were. Just by looking at them. I later saw a man, who gave me a very perverted look. The instant our eyes connected I was suddenly rushed back to when I was 15, when I was raped by a 55 year old man in his apartment. I had completely forgotten about this moment in my life, vanished it from my collective memory. All these emotions of pain and helplessness and angry came rushing into my being. My face got very hot, yet my forehead felt like there was a cold draft on it and the top of my head. This feeling lasted for about 5 minutes and then disappated. I got off of work early and came home. Feeling very drained I laid down on the couch. I fell asleep for about a 1/2 hour. When I woke, I suddenly had a recollection of last year, hallowe'en. Ian had made Megan an icq account and I became very upset over this. Ian brought this event up to me yesterday but I couldn't recall it at all. I suddenly was able to account every detail of the event and felt all the emotions I felt then flood my being. I felt violated and rejected and untrusting. My whole body became to pulse - I could feel my legs and stomach vibrating on the couch. Again my face got very hot and suddenly my hand snapped into a mudra. Usually my hand slowly "twitches" into mudras but not this evening. My hand was pulsing with energy and instantly took this formation. After a relentless search online for the particular mudra, the closest I was able to come up with was the shuni mudra which symbolizes patience and disconcertment. |
An online marketplace for selling and buying all things handmade!
It's like shopping at the artists market, but from your own home.
I discovered the website just in time for Christmas and along with my
trip to Blue Banana Market in Toronto, have managed to get almost everyone on
my list home made gifts.
Every morning, when we wake up, we have twenty-four brand-new hours to live. What a precious gift!
We have the capacity to live in a way that these twenty-four hours will bring peace, joy, and happiness
to ourselves and others.
Peace is present right here and now, in ourselves and in everything we do and see.
The Question is whether or not we are in touch with it. We don't have to travel far away to enjoy the blue sky.
We don't have to leave our city or even our neighborhood to enjoy the eyes of a beautiful child. Even the air we
breathe can be a source of joy.
We can smile, breathe, walk, and eat our meals in a way that allows us to be in touch with the abundance of happiness
that is available. We are very good at preparing to live, but not very good at living. We know how to sacrifice ten years
for a diploma, and we are willing to work very hard to get a job, a car, a house, and so on. But we have difficulty remembering that we are alive at the present moment, the only moment there is for us to be alive.
Every breath we take, every step we make, can be filled with peace, joy, and serenity. We need only to be awake, alive in
the present moment. ... Thich Nhat Hanh
