since my last post. The reason for this is that I have not known what to say.
You see, life has taken a sudden shift. Not a bad shift, but a big one. Two weeks ago, I Took Hand in a Sufi order. This is their word for initiation. However, I am not sure that this does the experience justice. For me it was a conversion. It was a rebirth.
Everything is different, in that it is infused with light and divine bliss. It feels like falling deeply in love with all things in life. I dont know what more to say about it than that. I feel that who I was has come to a conclusion. The prime angst that life has been put down. My new life has begun. I am seeing entirely new patterns beginning to come into focus. This is all very exciting. Oh, ya and I have a new name:
Shon Abdul Hadi.
As the reality of this name sinks into my awareness, I can see that the fun of life is well underway and the blind pain part is no longer such a heavy burden.
