“Don’t be afraid of opposition. Remember, a kite rises against, not with, the wind” ~Hamilton Wright Mable”
Discomfort is the price of admission to a meaningful life”. ~Susan David
At times are your feelings a nuisance?
Do you notice that you sometimes feel a resistance to what is rising internally?
Are you aware of what you are feeling throughout your day? Or even for part of the day?
If you said YES to any of these ~You are not alone!
Our lives and schedules are so full and busy that most times we can’t stop and examine or interpret or even distinguish between what we are saying and then translate it into knowing how we are feeling no less being able to attach words to the feeling sensations. Then if there is an emotion attached to any of these words that emotion might be immediately squashed, brushed aside, avoided or create an internal discomfort. We may go into a feeling of shame that we became “weak” (women) and then the term for a man is “he’s in touch with his feminine side”.
I think men and women are hard-wired to just stop the flow of emotions in any form and in any way. Except of course when someone has a drink or two or more or some other form of substance that can hep them loosen up. What is actually happening during that loosening up period is the person is becoming more connected to their deeper truth, to their internal system or their soul self that is being squashed by not being in connection to their emotional body, which is the core of who we are as human beings. Right? That part of us that is hidden, bored by a feeling, dismissed or avoided for a lot of each day.
My mission in my life is to help as many people as possible be in touch with their humanity. For me this starts with helping you RE-MEMEBER yourself or reconnect with the essence of who you are in your Emotional Body. Everything else in life (in my opinion) comes after this or to be more accurate comes from this connection!
A man was on the beach with about 50 other people flying their kites. I know he called me over because he saw how much joy I had watching the colored kites floating through the sky. He had just launched his kite and held out his hand and gave me the cord and the small stick to hold it. An emotion immediately rose inside of me. I felt a thrill for the present moment experience and also a re-membered experience of flying kites in Forest Park, Queens NY as a child.
Flying a kite is one way to stay focused and present in the moment!
