Greetings all and first up let me thank Anna, Shilpa, Jo and Louise for your thoughts, comments, loves, likes and shares. We may be a small readership but how mighty we are and certainly you are all appreciated and loved :)
Well, today I'm just a little bit tired after a great day working with some lovely people who have MS. It's been a full on day working with Reiki and truly it is wonderful to see the benefits it can give to those who could do with some respite. To me, this is what any healing modality is all about. Soon, I will get myself ready for tonight's little group too and that's always a joyful evening.
Another thing that comes to my mind is the hurtling price of petrol. Truly it's infuriating to see the price not just go up a penny but five all in one go. The petrol companies have reported double or triple profits for the start of the year and surely those who run the country should be putting a stop to this. Don't hold your breath though...
Well, a trip to the archives methinks. Here's something from oh, let me see...I wrote this in 2017 apparently.
The mystic
Your eyes struggle to focus on a cracked leather sleeve. You discern the title from memory and the pages curdle open to the third page. You recall when you entered adulthood and your first true love. How she made you smile and the joy of being with her haunts you now like a nameless wraith.
She passed through the veil twenty years ago. You raged at the divine for all your knowledge counted for nothing in your vain efforts to save her. You stole her last breath with a kiss and promised her you would meet again.
You plunge into the book and reach the forbidden pages. You finger the characters of a simple yet powerful spell. The trader told you no-one ever dared recite the words for the incantation held the power to both slay and heal.
You take two deep breaths and trace several arcane lines into the air whilst chanting foreign words. The atmosphere takes on a pinkish hue and the palms of your hand shine with alien electricity.
You feel the world shrink and you look down from high in the stars. You call out the name of your beloved and you swear you hear a response from a distant sparkle in the black. Your heart races when a fey green light draws near. You smell her essence, study her energy and her aura merges with yours.
You pull her towards you, urge her to join you in the planet below. Yet she stands firm and you look past her to her new remote home. You were certain she'd come down with you, yet now the new path lays so obvious before you.
You look below to see an old man crumple holding his ancient grimoire. You follow your your beloved one's timeless spark in a trail to a place beyond time and all dimensions. You arrive at a realm you don't recall yet know you've visited here many times before. She awaits and you join with her. It is the way things are, the way things must be. Your love is everything.
