Vulnerability

Posted on Jul 28th, 2007 by Jim : Path Finder Jim
I'm washing away myself. I'm touching my soul and pulling on the strings to see what will happen. I feel so open to life and to possibilities. It's scary because I feel everything so much more acutely. The good feels better; the bad feels worse. If someone is upset in the room, I feel it so much more tangibly. If someone is happy around me, I share so much more deeply in this joy. What do I do with this knowledge, this awareness? It's a question that I'm ruminating on. Maybe you've thought about it too.

I'm wondering how much longer that I can stay in my work and to feel the things that I do. There is so much unhappiness in a workplace--even a generally happy one. It makes me wonder what the next step in my life is. It's the reason that I'm staying vulnerable. I'm trying to be open to life's choices and needs and let the universe send me the answer. I'm sure that it'll be crystal clear when it comes. But for now, I feel delicate, fragile, and incredibly powerful, and I don't quite know what to do with it all.

I'd love to hear other people's thoughts. Have you felt this before?

Haven't broken through to that point yet … haven't let myself.  But I know what youre talking about.  I've experienced it in some of my spiritual conversations, only I don't feel the feel because I deeply trust the person I'm talking to, even if I only just met them.  I haven't ever really turned off my empathy; I know who's feeling what and who I gravitate to because they're feeling good.  Love!

ohmygoodness. I am feeling now!  What words of wisdom can you impart with me, dear divine soul, now that a year has passed for you since this entry was written?
