Past coming round..completions.. Rural retreats!

First Full Moon of the year!  and my, cant we feel it!  First blog of the year...  much has transitioned since my last entry. Visitors and friends have now all left after festivities and birthday, clots dissolved and lurghies disappeared!   The New is coming in and there is an optimism surrounding everything...acceptance of what cannot be changed and continued loving of all that is...

Its been a weird old week for me and today I have been hibernating, meditating, writing and reflecting..

Last week I helped out a friend in a demonstration of 'biodanza' for a local Womens' Institute Group..lovely to see how he could command a room of 60 women, aged from their fifties upwards in moving and feeling in ways they had never done before.    Many were nervous of looking into each others' eyes, moving with freedom, moving to the different music being played...ALL were beautiful!  A few were touched by it as I was and there were tears of recognition of sisterhood and love. 

Last weekend, I bumped into my ex hubby..we haven't seen each other for some fifteen years. For what seems like minutes, there was  nothing to say..we just looked into each others eyes.  When words were spoken it was loving and with a recognition of the journey we have both taken since our separation.  A bit surreal to see how his body has changed, hair turned grey and yet his eyes were still as smiley and sparkly as ever they were!  After a while, we hugged and said goodbye, he spoke of how great I looked..warmed me with his tenderness.

Then as I was waiting to meet someone in town a few days later, I watched a familiar face walk past me in the street...it was an old friend from when I was married....again, I hadn't seen him for over fifteen years either.  Disbelief that it had really been that long since we had all got together as a group of friends, a catch up and again a tender goodbye and wish to be remembered to the others.

Surreal and yet it felt like there was some completion of yet another circle from my past.  Out of all the sadness, grief and bitterness surrounding our separation..years later an acknowledgement of love that was always underneath it all.  We had been a big part of each of our 'growing up' in life...

A week of action in amongst reflection.  My book is nearing the top of my pile to complete and send off (I know said it before!)...and I have now set a date for me to hold the space for a rural retreat.  Details of which follow if any of you are interested...lets see how it manifests!

Namaste
