Hi Donna
As always, I am touched by the depth of wisdom in what you say.... and the relevance to my own journey.
Feather and Finality, I also found reading your words a continuation of the echo I felt reading Donna's.....
(yes Finality, I know that feeling of bursting to share!!!)
Donna, I do find that I am not "more vocal" now (as opposed to my pre-lightworker days, if that can even be used as a description). Nor do I temper what I say. I don't need to because I do not say anything, unless asked. What I do talk about, whenever anything of a spiritual nature comes up, does not make me feel uncomfortable, or even in a quandary as to how to describe or share - you see, the way it is for me, this is the most comfortable i have ever felt, this is the truth for me, so I just live it - it is in my speech, my actions, my thoughts....it is second nature and I do not feel "different"...only RIGHT or natural.
I find that most of what I feel and experience now is so personal and relevant to my own journey, that I do feel there is no way it would be important to anyone else. I don't feel the need to talk about it to my family and friends, unless of course, these friends are on a similar path and working with light and energy. Generally I find clues if it is right to share....because they will say something that is a sign for me. People of like mind or journeys seem to be drawn to me (I love the synchronicity!)
I also find that my writing/poetry is where I express a lot of my "being".....and generally do not share it unless there is a strong compulsion to do so. I find that those whom it is right to talk these things over with, seem to find me. Those who wish to share, generally appear in my life. I trust that. The people my writing is for, are the ones who read it. Well, that is the way I see it now.
As for the blank looks, oh yes, I certainly know those ones....like the shutters go down, so of course, I do not make people feel uncomfortable.....and speak of my stuff....nor do I try to change them or even assume that my way is better than theirs or easier or more true...after all, they have their own comfort zones and belief systems and that is how they live and that is their journey. Who am I to deliberately rock their boats......after all, if they want to be shaken, they can well do that for themselves! If they are ready for a light explosion, then they already have it programmed into their own flight plan!
The one thing I have discovered here at the Cafe.....although I am not "Reiki", and have not got around to learning...... the way that you all speak of it....the comments made that "after reiki" your lives changed, you saw differently, people looked at you differently etc etc...
is how I feel about my journey of discovery, my awareness of Spirit. It has progressed over every year of my life and I cannot say there was a point when it changed suddenly - it has just been a growing, evolving awareness and shift in my own perceptions and seeing. However, if I compare how things are with me today, as opposed to, say, twenty years ago, the difference is huge, immense, very obvious. But the feelings have always been there, now I just know what it is all about! I work with energy, light etc in my own life, and so everything and everyone looks different to me now....or perhaps I see "more", "feel" more, am more in tune with the universal energies. I love this.
Just my take on "how it is"....am so glad to read yours!
Thanks for bringing up a truly interesting topic of conversation!
Wendy
