Completed a marathon.
And beginning another. When I got home at 10:00 p.m., after spending two days in Sacramento, I collapsed. On the couch. Unable to get up for
more than an hour. Thank you, for bearing with my absences.
I just com-pleted a time where practically every minute of every day was consumed. This included getting up at 5:55 a.m., to make a call exactly at 6:15 p.m., on Tuesday and Thursdays. Not a second earlier or later was I allowed by the person receiving the call. This, after going to bed at 2:00 or 3:00 in the morning, after filing and charting client notes.
The little time I had was used to stay on top of my practice. Completing training I started September 8th---that finished yester-day---consumed time. To threads, my schedule was tattered. Along with my mind. Continuously challenging and changing paradigms during this season or characterological change made my inner self a carousel.
Thoughts within moved up and down while feelings spun around. My values were not given time to stand still. This boot camp of per-sonal growth took me to extremes not previously known. Much was processed. Recovering from the material absorbed, I am.
Over the next few postings I hope to share how I am transform-ing, and already have.
Sunday, I was deeply loved. Honored. And blessed, while given tremendous hope, encouragement and strength. Sunday was magical. I cried, several times. Good tears of joy, connection and understand-ing.
To the core of my soul, I was blessed. Never have I experienced such simultaneous support, affection, kindness and community. Ever.
In three compressed moments of time----yesterday, Saturday and the past four months----a revolution within took place. Yesterday was beyond magical. I was lifted up by community. I experienced con-nection with many others as never witnessed before. Saturday, I was honored, recognized, and appreciated by more than 50 people.
Saturday, I experienced success. A huge task was accomplished. I was loved. I worked to a point of exhaustion I haven't known since my days as a wrestler, in high school. All this was done while working along with a team of five others.
I know there is much I do, for good. It is the result of the support gotten from a loving community of friends. My relationship with God also fortifies and inspires me, making it possible for me to serve others as I do. What I offer this world also results from thousands of hours put in training and study. I am better equipped than I was last September.
I have grown by a factor of at least ten. In the book Safe People, one characteristic of a Safe Person is growth. An unsafe person doesn't. (How are you growing?) The words you read today is from a person who is different from what he was September 7th. Thank you, for liking who I was.
I am not that person, now.
Am I grateful for discovering more to life, myself and what I do than thought possible. Now, I am unloading the treasures received the past few months. These gifts make me a happier. Life is more radiant. I am more confident, humbled, thankful and a more empowered person.
Christmas came early for the innkeeper. Know this, never have I been as moved. Challenged, supported and inspired was routine during my training. More to be revealed, after I have rested and digested all I went through. I am still collecting my thoughts.
I love you all. I can't wait for the blessings, joy, success, and happiness that the rest of my life offers!!
