WELL, the whistle blew again, today.
"It's time", I told myself. Time to write again, and see if you can reach the masses.
We all need to love and be loved, yet there is so much pain and miscommunication out there. I have learned so much through the years and all my training, but how do I get the messages accross and will it do any good?
So i would like to ask you....What would you do? We are all our greatest teachers, so we need to hear from each other.
No one person can tell another, everything about how to make their lives better. Like the saying goes:
"IT TAKES A VILLAGE TO RAISE A CHILD!"
Well we are all children under God, or in the spiritual realm. I am priveledged. I get to hear what others are feeling and thinking. I grow from this, and hopefully, I try to shed some wisdom that will help them to grow, as well.
We need a larger group, however. We need to work like a village, and try to help one another.
I wanted to write this blog, to offer my own experiences, as well as asking others to share their experiences, so that we might all prosper. There is not one story that someone shares, that I don't get something very meaningful from. Just to hear the inner voice and shared feelings of another...teaches me something...and certainly lets me know that I am not alone.
Knowing you are Not alone is BIG one!
Knowing is a that others are feeling what I am feeling and seeing how they handle it, gives me a greater perspective, and helps me to grow.
AGAIN, I would like to ask each and every person that reads this, to share something...a feeling...an experience...anything...so that what they have endured will have even that much more meaning.
Why should we go through our successes and challenges, just to have all that wisdom learned, die with us?
Why not share SOMETHING, so that others will prosper, and we can know that what we went through...was not for naught!
Love is a big one...I'll start...
I'll share with you the beginning of my greatest love. His name was Gil. I remember the first time we met. I was married to another man,and he was married to another woman. I had not had an affair in my life, so that is not what this is about.
It's about fate.
I went to Boston to visit a friend. We had to go by Gil's office to pick up some video equipment for the workshop that evening. I had heard of Gil, but never met him, because I lived in Florida.
When we walked into the room, Gil was looking down, packing up the equipment. My friend said, Gil, this is Linda...the girl I was telling you about. Gil looked up at me with a smile.
Our eyes met, and the whole world shut down for just a moment.
The only thing I could feel, was the sharp jolt of cupid's arrow. It was actually a pain that hit me like a large dart(or rather a bolt of lightening),right in my heart.
As I drifted back into consciousness, I felt so embarrassed. I wondered, did anyone else see that? What was that?!? My face turned red, as I smiled back at him, and said, "nice to meet you."
What just happened to me?
I had never had such a feeling before. I told myself that I must not ever think of this again, because I was a married woman.
I would just throw it into neverland, and never think of it agian (or so I thought!).
And that is where my journey with Gil, began.
There is so much more to tell, because this was true fate.
We were supposed to meet, and no... neverland was not where he landed, when I threw him. This was a journey that took years, but it was destined...
or was it?
That will be the question that should be answered. When we are destined to be with someone...there is no mistaking the feeling. But does this always mean that we are suppposed to follow through and keep going forward, even if it means destruction?
Soul mates, twin flames, destiny doesn't always mean we will have unavoidable happiness. What if it means we will have unavoidable tragedy if we go forward.
Where do our lessons begin and where do they end.
Where does free will belong in this equation?
It is not a simple concept...but it is one that will always facilitate enlightenment.
This is far from the end of "the Gil story"....much more to come...
Do you have a story you could share. We need to hear your feelings, experiences and guidance.
Please share something with us all.
Those that are meant to hear it...will find their way to this page.
Until next time...remember, we get by with faith, hope and love...and the greatest of these being love. As long as we have each other, we will never truly be alone.
We ARE a village!!!
In loving spirit...linda....AmandasEternalFlame
