A “bad” cold
I hardly get “really sick”.
Was this a surprise? No, not really, I “should” have known, but…
Reminders/”lessons” are always good, presents of Life, Experience,
and they can come from everywhere.
So… I had just finished a “home-coming” ceremony, and everything had gone very well.
I had been a little tense, because of the responsibility connected, and a some participants I did not know.
Outside, Storm, Eis flying through the Air, a real Winter Evening, strong, and New Moon.
I went out to enjoy a “landing smoke”, and thanked all Spirits around for support,
basically in a tea-shirt and my thin leather jacket, real silly…
Eis and Wind hit me, but I thought it was alright, call it “refreshing”.
My body said “Careful!”, and, twice, I “ignored” it… (ego, ego…)
Two days after, I collapsed, and still “sick”.
Usually I am an active person, and three days in bed , forget it.
Now my Body dictates: “stay there”, ” do nothing”,
and I am listening! , (almost a “Miracle”, smile).
Why I am writing about this?
I “found out” that the “condition” I am in, while my Body is “sick” and “reconstructing”
is an “altered state of Consciousness”:
the Foggy “all-embracing”, “no thoughts”, “empty and silent” , “floating dreamy state”,
is “interesting” and Healing, (which is what is happening).
Body working, Energy working… need Rest and Peace.
So… I was reminded of a few “things”… And thanks for that!
Great is the power of the Body, and I need to listen to it.
“Sickness” (at least this one), can be “enjoyed”, as a different Journey.
That is it,
maybe a banality, maybe not,
or just a story, up to you to decide.
