Guest guest Posted November 25, 2007 Report Share Posted November 25, 2007 Oh, thank you so much for that quote. I will remember it well. Thanks so much, Glen. You are such a blessing. Love, Tara gleno <gleno wrote: Thanks for sharing Tara. Life is a reflection of our perspective. A perspective manifested through our intent. This offers unlimited reward for those wishing selfless service. This lesson is inherent within all aspects of your recent teachings. Give love and thanks for the opportunities provided - and when it becomes overwhelming take solace in the following quote from Dada J.P. Vaswani; " If you would walk the way of love, never feel hurt nor yield to anger, but accept pain as a part of life.

He didn't seem to understand me at first, so I had to take him there; to the house of a little 13 year old being thrown into walls and cursed. > It was very bad for my emotional state, although the explanation was necessary. > I was shaking, shivering and hyperventilating, all the while. > > So a lot of those old wounds came back to haunt me, and I had gotten very, very depressed, and had begun to feel very much suicidal. One of my closest friends whom I work with, took all of the razor knives (box cutters) away, because she was worried for me. She also confiscated my huge bottle of ibuprofen. I wasn't going to argue, because I felt it was a real struggle remaining here, for another week, another day or another minute. > > One day, my store manager pushed me over the edge, and it wasn't even his fault. It's all of these repressed memories which are surfacing. He said something that threw me back into that time frame of an oppressed and hated child, and I felt I could never escape..except to leave everything. My department manager saw the look on my face like I felt I didn't belong anywhere anymore. > She looked into my face sadly, and I saw her crying later. > It made me feel really, really bad; that she was hurting for me. > > I was off for two days, and within those two days, I could not make myself move. > Then I took a look at a c.d.

It occurred during my sleep. > In the morning, I had a craving for praise music, and a chakra cleansing and alignment, with my chakra c.d. I obeyed the inclination, and listened my chakra cleansing, aligning and healing c.d. in the morning, as I got ready for work. > Then I listened to praise music all the way in to work. > As I walked up the hill to my job, I felt the strongest heat, burning; > in the bottoms of my feet. Not painful, but pleasant and comforting. > I knew it was Shakti, and then I didn't feel so alone. > I was very happy to have her company. > I felt as if all of my hurt which was irrelevant to the here and now, was all gone. > I was smiling and peaceful all day long. I felt as if someone put a 'good spell' on me, or sent me some kind of powerful healing energy or something. > > > A few days later, when I began contemplating things I could do to bring my soul more peace, I felt a silly little popping in my spine. That made me happy, because I knew she was telling me I was a good girl for wanting to do right, and progress. > > It has really helped me a lot. > That very morning, I felt the strongest heat, burning; in the bottoms of my feet. > I knew it was Shakti, and then I didn't feel so alone. > I was very happy to have her company. A few days later, when I began contemplating things I could do to bring my soul more peace, I felt a silly little popping in my spine. That made me happy, because I knew she was telling me I was a good girl for wanting to do right, and progress. > > Yesterday, I was up against a crushing sales goal, and I had to help every other cosmetics counter around me, but my own, because the others were not properly staffed. I lost sales because of it. I was my crushed and at wits end, when 30 min before the end of my shift, I only had in a quarter of my daily sales goal. > > I found myself asking God why I must work so diligently for every one else, and get nothing in return. No sales..no peace of mind..no comfort; nothing. > I prayed, and I did my prayer breathing,too. > > When I came back to the selling floor, I noticed that my attitude had changed. > It was as if someone full of self confidence and inner peace and joy, took over my being. Customers were coming up to me, and I found myself taking charge. and seating them and explaining the products in such detail, that I surprised myself. I never had believed in myself before, and so I would think " I can't do this. I don't belong here. I'm too stupid to memorize all of this, I'm nothing more than a fraud, and I don't know what I'm doing. No one can trust me. " I don't know where that came from, other than words left lingering in my mind from my childhood. I found myself forgetting all of it, and just being free..and just being me; who I really am. Showing my true colors, without fear. > > My customers loved me, every one of them; and I felt even more confident because of it. I took extra special care of them, like I've always wanted but had felt too self conscious to really shine that way. > I began work that day at 6:am, and was supposed to leave at 3:pm. > I left at 8:pm, with more than my sales goal accomplished, 4 brand new customers, and much inner peace and self confidence. I was so shocked that I was still standing. Somehow, I wasn't fainting, though hungry and very tired. > Something was giving me strength, but it was almost a reward for giving my all. > Maybe that can be called karma, I'm not sure, but I was/am so very thankful for that peace and strength. I felt like a million dollars at the end of the day. > Granted, a very tired million dollars.lol > I forgot to thank God when i got home, so I'll be doing that tonight. > I have a lot to be thankful for. Especially to still be here in this world. > I will be praying for God and Shakti to keep filling me with this peace, so that I can completely heal. I want to stay here now, and I'm so thankful for that feeling. > > > Shakti is really helping me. > I've been feeling peace, where there was no peace before. > I wrote a poem called cutting, about the 13 year old 'me'. In the writing of that poem, I was able to realize that all these years, I have been ashamed of myself and my very existence..because of all the welts I knew I had from my father's belt. I felt like the unwanted child, all along, and I must have thought that the whole world knew, and hated me also. In the re-reading of that poem, and I cried and cried..and felt once again, that I did not belong. Then I realized that I DO have a father who loves and wants me..God. So I prayed and spoke to him, and cried to him, and asked him to help me to feel better. I did. > Then I felt deserving of my existence, and I've had much more peace within me. > > Just thought I'd share that little story with you, my K brothers and K sisters. > I love you all, and I'm thankful for each and every one of you.
