First Assignment

Erk…rough night.

I felt good yesterday despite having worked the night before and feeling tired.

Went to bed at 8pm, I woke just before 3am to an excruciatingly painful head. It was so sore I felt nauseous. To top it all I was in a cold fever, shivers of energy running up and down my body.

‘What the hell is going on?’ I asked feeling slightly wimpy.

‘We’re opening your memories and adjusting your body’s frequency,’ said Athena’s calm voice.

‘Aaargghhh, does it have to be so painful,’ I whimpered.

No answer.

So from 3-5 this morning I was in agony, shivering like a whipped dog, alternating between heat and cold, until I finally fell asleep and woke this morning without a headache.

Hmm…I do feel a bit wobbly. When I sat up to go to the toilet, my nose started running. I grabbed a tissue to find…blood. Okay, another sign that something has been released.

I tottered to the bathroom to have a shower so I could feel something more human than I did.

Later sitting quietly I felt slightly strange, as though I’m not quite me and yet I am.

I received my first assignment instruction from Athena – ‘You must have a meeting with your manager today.’

‘Okay, what about?’

‘Nothing in particular, just have a chat with her. She’s having a rough time making things work and needs some help. Through you we’ll give her that but you need to be together without any distractions for her.’

Right…um, okay…so I’m sitting here creating an intention that an opening will be made for us to have a brief meeting for them up there to do their work.

‘Athena,’ I asked later. ‘Will I have to be known as you? What if people don’t like what I say?’

Sternly she said, ‘No war was ever won by being a wilting flower.’

Duly smacked around the head…I make my way to work on wobbly legs.
