I found myself telling somebody recently, “I live my life from one miracle to the next… if you insist on miracles, they have to happen.” And I realized after I said it (this often happens to me) that it’s true. I often put myself in situations where the only thing that’ll save me is a bonafide miracle. And it always happens. Always! That was a ray of light realization for me.

Sometimes I get saved by the kind of miracle that I don’t think is a miracle, like having my car break down in the middle of nowhere and having to ask for help from the last person I wanted to reach for (my ex)… the miracle was, he came through for me. And it was good for me to open up to him. Humbling. Necessary.

Well, this moved me, too. Wow! I am letting go of that sappy, unreal, couldn’t possibly happen crap and asking for miracles in my life, as well.

Yoga eh? i just started a home yoga program because my health has been so poor … it’s been 5 days and i’m already feeling better.

i’m doing something called accuyoga, which is accupressure and yoga together. i’m loving it too. i feel like it’s time for moving into my body, and there’s a lot being held there.

I know… it’s my own judgements revealed by what I said there. I fear being perceived as ’sappy’ because I have judgements about other ’sappy’ stuff, judgements of the motivations behind those who forward them (they always seem to come with a pat moral and a guilt message at the end: ‘If you have a heart you will forward this to everybody you know’ type of thing).

Thanks, Jean. Sappy is kind of a null concept really.

when i find myself judging things i see or read as sappy, i realize that it is me judging my own broken heart. it is the voice of L sneering at the mother’s heart’s desires.

so then i really let myself get into it and there’s alot there.

by the way, i didn’t find it sappy at all.

I realized after I posted it, it sounds just like those sappy emotionally manipulative ‘inspirational’ stories that people send around as email forwards. Man, I have judged them heavily! Yet, perhaps they (or at least some of them) started out as somebody’s true experience… hm.

I know this one happened. I was there. Thanks for the feedback, gaias!
