Oh my word…I woke this morning feeling so sorry for myself.
A state of melancholy that I’ve not experienced for a while…and
after the highs…this seemed to be really really really LOW.
As I brushed my teeth with a sorrowful movement, I felt
things moving around my feet again. Didn’t bother to look…I knew who it was and
just remember thinking, ‘*&%!, here come
the police.’
Yeah…I know…not a good place, but there you go…it happens…but
there is always a reason.
So feeling really sorry for myself I sat down with my
laptop, intending to eventually do a meditation…when a thought…one which I
thought was merely to get me out of meditating, cos I was really happy to
wallow…suddenly popped into my mind. Go
on to Zingdad’s website - on Saturday, Zingdad contacted me, which was a
lovely surprise. It is amazing how all of us are starting to connect and for
which I am grateful.
Yeah, I thought, go on…foil them in their dastardly plot.
So I did and came across Shadb’s music. Hmm…I’ll listen to
see what it’s like…anything to get out of meditating.
Meh…what did I know…I should know by now how sneaky I can be
to me.
I clicked on the first piece of music without really reading
what it was for – the Violet one. It was only later that I really looked at the
description – works on the emotional body.
I sat quietly listening, only to find that the dragons were
around me and were trying to align me with the light, cos of course I was off
centre, wasn’t I. But hang on I was really enjoying wallowing, so I cut myself
off from the meditation and decided to surf the net while I was listening to
the music.
Didn’t work, did it? I could feel myself coming back into
alignment. I then clicked on the Green music – haha…to do with the heart, mind
and respiratory system – universal love. It was during this music that I found
myself crying. My mother had sent me an email that started it.
I remembered all the losses we’d suffered…moving from South
Africa to the UK, the loss of in every way - grandparents, hubby’s parents, our
pets, living so far away from everyone…you name it, I cried over it. Surprised
me as I thought I’d cleared most of it.
Oh woe is me :-(
So for good measure once the Green music was over, I played
the Orange music – enjoy life. Hmm…not there yet, was I? So it made me cry some
more.
It reminded me of the pure joy of playing with abandon,
which I seem to have lost today. It prompted me to think of the days I spent in
our family home in Cape Town. We had a huge garden filled with all kinds of
fruit trees. My favourite was a Guava tree that I used to climb regularly…it
had a branch that was my horse. I used to ride off into different adventures on
it.
We also had a pergola covered in a vine that fruited green
grapes regularly. My sister and I used to pretend it was a stage and we did all
kinds of plays there…and our parents and relatives smiled and applauded through
these extravaganzas. Happy times indeed…and it made me cry.
Oh to get back the pure joy of playing with abandon…and yet
what is holding me back? Do I need to be a ‘child’
in size to feel this way? I feel the joy of being an adult…but do I get the
same buzz that I had as a child?
