CENTRE COURT

This morning has been beyond refreshing for me. My body clock, (which I ALWAYS ignore), woke me up at 07h30. Now, for a student/chef/occupant of this universe, I find it extremely daunting to even try to respond to this clock on a daily basis. I always have that touch and go moment whereby I need to quickly decide between: starting my pro-activity or falling back into the deepest slumber and revert to my 'other' world of floatatious solitude.

It was a strange (in a good way) feeling, that my mind finally responded to my body. This 'early-bird' form of myself is something that I have yet to a custom myself to. It is an alternative form of happiness, that until now, I have not yet experienced. I was actually excited about being awake, naturally, at an earlier hour than I am used to. Trust me, I sometimes have those 13h00 rise and shine days... WHICH ARE THE BEEEEST! Waking up in time for lunch is the most amazing luxury I pride myself with. Don's hate!

It is so weird how strong the connectivity is between us people. We are very much unaware of the amount of force we can produce, using only our positive energies to duplicate even more positivity which we then have the power to project. Ha, funny story is that I went to the eye doctor yesterday and he told me that my 'lack of seeing' is due to my 'lack of a positive perception on my life, right now'. Hmmmm, okay Dokotela (Doctor)... I was too confused when he told me this. It was alright though, his good looks and playing of great classical tunes in the background of his consultations, saved his opinion. AMBIENCE IS KEY. Anyway, I always thought of myself as a very positive person, but I shall encourage even more positivity into my soul and see if his approach heals my self-diagnosed, slightly impaired vision.

I feel elated right now... There are so many thoughts I wish to share with you in this piece. I will have to preserve some of my energy for a later day; Though I must say, I met a man last week who reinstilled my love for meditative processing. He took me through an exercise, where we fully engage with each other, whilst our eyes are closed. We would take a few long breaths every now and then and release them with a humming sound. This was all done with our feet planted, shoulder-width apart and our backs upright in our chairs. At first I found it awkward because I could not concentrate on the fact that my vision was non-existent,. This automatically allowed for me to better tune into my other senses. It was extremely calming and even more so enlightening as I took my mind to a place that was completely a new. A different sense of focussed thought.

I tried this same exercise this morning, whilst going through my morning routine of brushing my teeth: Mouthwash, Brush, Rinse, FLOSS and Rinse. I did all of this with my eyes closed, imagining how my life would be if I were a blind person and giving thanks to all of the higher beings for the valuable gift of sight. I must admit, that it was one of the more fun mornings of my life thus far. I danced to all of my favourite tunes, enjoyed turning some of the stored energy I had genereated during my night's rest, into new energy, new thought, new ideas.

It was when my dance came to a close and my blindess turned to sightedness, that:  I opened up to find my body, divided into two by the mirrors on the wall, which are seperated by a slither of wall tiling. It was then that I realised that I have found my centre for the day :) Could a sign of central solitude be any more obvious than finding yourself in this position? I think not. It is this that inspired me to then reposition my bed and rearrange my entire bedroom. This is usually more theraputic than this morning's activity which lead to my having a broken bed. Not to worry though, I am a-okay with my low based matress; that lies perfectly on top of the base boards, on my floor. I actually prefer it this way.

It is a humbling view to sleep below the masses. I now have the constant ability to look up every morning that I wake up, as opposed to downwards or to the side. There is always a light that shines down on me, to remind me that I have yet to reach the end of the tunnel. It is without light, that we sometimes lose our vision right?

Bom Dia,
