and i would walk 500 miles

for the waking hours of seven days straight i chanted the maha mantra, and all my fear was gone, of setting out on a 500 mile walking pilgrimage, alone abroad in the world for the first time and on the evening of that first week i went to bed pissed on the free red wine that we would get with our meals, for the antioxidents obviously wink emoticon i woke up in the early hours to the sound of a female voice telling me "you are nothing special but unique, the universe will do what it needs with or without you but you will give your life in service to your fellow beings" i'm paraphrasing here mind you but the jist was what has happened since, i've gone down further than i thought possible but also gone as high as i think it's possible to go, being god for a few hours, a few years ago, so the rollercoaster has brought balance into my life and the result is that I can now give healing energy out to anyone and to all of it, whatever IT is, whatever we are, this is my role now, whatever else i'm doing smile emoticon heart emoticon +
