I so much appreciate your messages on this site; sometimes I just sit here in front of the computer, weeping; weeping in relief; weeping in grief; quietly taking deep sighs – in release. Breathe in. Breathe out. Feeling peace. Like a knotted muscle that has just been pin-pointed by a physical therapist, and who has put just the right amount of pressure on it, causing – “ouch-aw-w-w ouch, how long is this going to take?” – intense pain on that knotted muscle – until, suddenly – release, and peace. No more pain. Just a memory that there was once pain there in that spot, but now it is gone. There is a fresh sense of freedom in movement. A quiet joy starts to rise up within. A spontaneous smile forms. There is something so wonderful in going to a therapy session, like reading this Step recovery article. There is pain, yes, but it is a therapeutic pain; pain that is working a process for the release of an emotional knot. A knot of gripping, chronic, unrelenting, unnatural and disabling pain that has interferred for so long with me being able to have a peaceful, joy-enjoying life. So I breathe in. I Breathe out. In release. Thank you for applying just the right amount of pressure in just the right location to bring about a therapeutic release of so many knotted emotions; so now, there is just quietness, and calm peace. Thank you.
