Womanity continuity

So where did we get to oh yeah I was hitching and almost immediately got picked up by a woman who told me so many incredibly useful and insightful things like never eat pork because pigs being so closely related to humans, means they can carry diseases we can catch by consuming them and people suffering from Multiple sclerosis should cut out all dairy and protein from their diet because the error in their genetic makeup that causes the condition and deterioration uses protein to further the damage that has begun.  Also I learned how high a percentage of dairy cattle put forward to be added to the meat industry are riddled with pus and are not fit for human consumption because of the way they are used all their lives meaning the milk and then other products that ome from that also are not a healthy addition to any diet.  Vegans will know this already but it concretises the decision not to consume anything coming from that source.

We chatted and I explained that I do healing work with people to initiate their own body to access and use resources within to heal them.

The magic of that meeting, her willinness to take me to where I could continue on with my journey and our exchange of information was truly beautiful and I had not slept for days for longer than an hour or two so fairly rapidly after a nap and another in Friday night traffic meant I eventually ended up at another services this time on the M42 above Manchester and then planned a route from there to the monastery for the meditation weekend that had brought me home from Spain I the first place.  As I walked and listened I learnt how to comport myself in a strange place.

Hearing within the guidance to walk on the outside of the pavement how to be dressed how to hold myself how to be and act.

All the while not knowing where I was but where I was going checking the maps on buss tops from time to time walking and learning and traversing a new city as I made me way with tiredness following me but a sense of adventure nonetheless and always a need to respect the environment and myself and others.

So I finally got to an area I knew a lttle and because I was choosing to trust the guidance I received i also wanted to prove to myself that I could walk up to a place I had been before also.  I got to Heaven on Earth the Space.  Walking around not knowing where the monastery was I asked a guy having a smoke in his doorstep and his girlfriend told him to tell me where he area of Gorton was.  Ajacent to where I was and so I kept on going.  Past a club with a lot of people milling around outside a little fearful of the area and people.

Drive on keep on going you can do it I heard.

Always facing the fact that I have a positive inner dialogue these days along with a need to accept those parts of myself some deny exist.

I found the monastey nestled in a housing estate with new looking houses and high value modern cars so I took myself to a bus top and fell asleep sat with my rucksack and things.

Waking up I waited until hey opened the gates and sat on a bench to wait until everyone else came to the event.

I slept through the meditations for the most part and lunchime came around.  I had no money and was gifted a banana and tried to see if anyone would take pity on me further.

All I had to give were crystals I had found and brought with me from my travels so I gave them to the people sat on my table and by the end of the weekend I had given almost all of them away and experienced the Joy of meeting new people being offered a little something here and there doin some healing only to receive some surprisingly from an older gentleman called Roger and generally being muh more myself after having asked and been offered a place to stay at a flat with someone I barely knew all the while being dared to do things that have terrified me all of my life.

Askin for what I need.  Facing possible rejection.  Ignoring thoughts of failure.

Being able and willing to be better and succeed where before there was only ever anxiety and dread.  Living life based on a reduced need for things like food and only what I had with me.

By the second day well rested although we had stayed up very late or early depending on your point of view ;) it came to the end of the day and I had nowhere to go but home finally for the first time in over a month and needing a lift a woman I had met also required a ride home, one of the people I had got to speak to because of the gift of amethysts and shared experience of the weekend.  So I asked Roger if he knew of anyone going south for this woman.  It would be great if there was room for two but she was more important to my mind because she had further to go and I was brought up to respect and honour women children before myself.  There was!  Not only that but room for me aswell yes what a day.

So chatting as we headed home lead to a meeting in Glastonbury the following week and a walk up to the tor, collecting some spring water and seein a chap whose face I knew from somewhere and my new friend was only too happy for me to go and discover where and how and why I recognised this homeless man.

We had met it transpired on the high treet in the town on New Years Eve when he had just gotten back from Spain and I was going to a party in the Assembly rooms to meet friends.

So as we caught up it turned out that he was going back to Spain in a few weeks time.  To the same area I had just left.  To the same village and to the very same beach I had just been living on for the past several weeks!

Incredible amazin wonderful synchronicity!

So that was a catalyst for me to choose a flight close to his knowing I will have someone who knows the area well on my return and more than that he's been to the communities I would like to visit over there and our future was set.

Bumped into someone from Birmingham who had been to the meditaton weekend who was house sitting just outside the town after that.

I was havin difficulty keeping the biggest grin from my face and feeling so blessed and happy.

On our return home my new friend exclaimed and we had to stop to take photos of the most beautiful magical rainbow I've ever seen.
