Latest and Greatest

Juice came home yesterday and we really had a chance to bond and talk...and laugh our asses off. My grandmother and my 2 drunken uncles came over. It was hilarious, but obnoxious. It was like we were playing, "Who can talk the loudest". Of course, I always lost. When they left and the TV was off, and there was no one talking, it was like peace. I think that's what goes on in my mind. The louder, more obnoxious thoughts always seem to get heard the most.

I had a Reiki Healing Touch session yesterday. Apparently, there are issues with my right leg (my broken leg that has the metal implants) and there are issues with my heart chakra. The heart chakra one was easy to diagnose in me. I have issues between integrating the spiritual and the secular. I've had these issues ever since I walked away from Christianity 14 years ago. I recently had an internet psychic reading by a woman who knew absolutely nothing about and she said the same thing. Somehow there is something in my right leg that is affecting the balance of my entire energy system. I also keep my energy field (aura) extremely close to my body. The reason for this...protection. It is neither good or bad, just who I am.

I also learned a little bit of Buddhist wisdom yesterday. When you stop questioning yourself, and self-analyzing and trying to figure things out is the beginning of wisdom. A mind that constantly wants to question everything, will continue in that pattern/loop until it becomes a sort of addiction. A true spiritual person is one who hears things and lets it go. Meditation is not about not having thoughts, but about observing each thought and letting it go -- without any kind of judgement.

I've been though a lot over the last few weeks, and these lessons I'm learning are profound. There are times I get sad and depressed, but I'm allowing myself to see and feel these thoughts. I feel I'm becoming a better person through this whole experience.
