The Healing Journey

“Oh how will I ever climb out of the misery I am in…? and what is this urge for me to climb to the top of this mountain when it seems so impossible..?”

“The mountain is so treacherous & so steep, its peak pierces the sky, way up there above the clouds…it keeps going & going…”

“It’s impossibly high, I'll never be able to get up there.. but what is this urge that keeps calling me..?”

“Down here below the peak my world is covered in darkness, I live in the thickest, heaviest smog, I can’t see clearly & it keeps getting darker, I am so tired & my body feels weak… & now there are hands prodding at me through the billows.. oh dear… & now I can’t breathe.. what do I do..?”

“The mountain is calling me.. but I'm so frightened.. I’ve never left this smog.. what if.. what if.. what IF…?!”

“It’s crushing me in this place, I must move”.

“It has to be better than this, & it’s still calling me, what if I just got up a little bit & see how I felt..?”

… (b r e a t h i n g) …

“Wow.. what is this? I have a bit more energy now, and I’m starting to feel better.. maybe I'll keep going…”

“The smog is clearing.. oh I can breathe..!”

“Every step I get closer to those clouds, I notice I am getting stronger & the fall below becomes more frightening than the climb up now..”

“I must keep going, I must not fall”.

“I don’t ever want to go back down there”.

“Oh look, I am in the clouds now.. I thought they were the top but there’s clear skies above the clouds..”

“How they were covered.. all this vast sky, covered by these clouds…”

“The sun warms me, I can see everything and everywhere from this height..”

“I look below at my old stories, I am high above all the dramas like the Eagle”.

“I am high above the story That I believed WAS ME..”

“Ahh, I see now. So THIS IS ME.

And that was a story..”

“Everything looks so different from up here. So much more clearer.”

“What do I do now..? Now that I don’t relate to that old story..?”

…

When you aren’t living an old story, or reacting from triggers.. you become the real you.

Otherwise you are stuck in the story..

Where are you in this journey..?
