There are these moments during particular days where I must be incredibly truthful with myself about what I am going through and feeling. I know when it is preparing to occur because I get this wave of power from the base of my neck down to my back and I feel my mood begin to change. I once was scared of it...the sensation of water almost dripping down my back. But in time I have learned the correct way to sit with it.
What follows after is pure stillness. Deep in thought. Numb. I feel truth bubbling to the surface.
Often we are going through life not realising that there are things under the surface. We think that we have fully recovered or have moved on, but in reality there are still pieces to the puzzle that must be put together. Maybe it is only one piece left, perhaps it is simply this moment where you've got to sit right down and get quiet one last time, or possibly it demands more of your attention.
There's a fascinating balance between moving forward and making the effort, whatever the situation might be and starting to appreciate what is going on inside. I believe much of the time when a person is hurt and people recognize it they try to tell that person to really pick themselves up as fast as is humanly possible and forget the past. This information, while meant to be beneficial, isn't basically practical - only because the same person who gave that guidance, in a similar scenario, couldn't possibly take it.
The most sensible advice you can truly give is not to forget as quick as you can and blast forward, but to sit with whatever is happening deep within. To let it all flow through you. The sole way you can really understand what something basically means to you, especially in a relationship, is by experiencing the result.
Have a honest moment.
Don't run or hide from feelings that you would associate as negative. They're life's way of balancing you out. When you try and block them or manipulate them, you are putting yourself in a horrible place. Let life do what it needs to do so as to keep you learning and growing.
When the moment is over, then move forward. Don't try to change it while you are in it. Something is trying to talk with you. Open yourself to emotions and feelings and let them pour reason into your heart.
