Upon taking a dear friend's advice, I am going to share with you, my reader, my life, from the very beginning to now. As I am sharing my life, it will also be a time of reflection for me. This will be painful at times, I believe that I am in a place now in my spiritual journey to explore deeper parts of my being that have remained buried. I'm calling this process- Remembering, Reliving, and Releasing.
With every memory I will ask myself, Who is thinking? Who is feeling? Who is acting? I hope a new perspective will emerge out of my observation of self. As this happens, I then hope to view all of my past experiences in a new light and release them.
I want to go beyond the barriers that my adolescent mind has built, and tear them down completely. I hope through my vulnerability and courage, that you to will gain the courage to reflect on your own self and heal your wounds.
"...birth is suffering, old age is suffering, illness is suffering, death is suffering. Union with uunpleasant things is suffering, separation from pleasant things is suffering, not obtaining what we wish is suffering, in short the fivefold clinging to existence is suffering..." Buddha
