We don’t know, but our actions are tied to what we have convinced ourselves of knowing. We do a lot of convincing, a lot of thinking, and put in so much effort just to know a few things, and we really hold on to them,, to lasso some control into our lives. It's how we make sense of any of this. Of course this is still knowing in one way  –life is exactly what you think it is–    But this is only the cultural, base brain, primal manipulation of the universe. Basically we say that we can’t afford to stop,, and thats more than half of the planet.. "Gotta keep up". It brings feelings of being behind, doomed, or undeserving of. Why it's like that- I have a hunch, but that's not the type of knowledge I'm interested in anymore. We are looking for peace, not answers.

I am reminded quite often of this quaint, very matter-of-factly website that explains this different knowledge. It comes to mind during times where I'm grasping for some type of reason. It's about a tree, a very big one.

“Become the Giant Sequoia?

Well... now that is a lofty thought! (over 300 feet!) To become me you must know what I know... Do you know what I know? Think hard... What do I know that you don't know?.... Still haven't figured it out? Perhaps you can't know it by thinking it, because you don't know… Perhaps if you sit nearby, very quietly and very still... you will learn... to become me and you will know what I know…

There is a Voice. Deep in. Deep inside. Deep inside Everyone.

Call it god, or call it gut, there is a compass inside us. The little guy is very humble yes,, it won’t speak over you, so you must take the time to sit and listen. Letting go of what you think you know first, so we can accept a new perspective. ‘I believe in this’ I say to my convinced self. But boy,,,it sure hasn’t taken much convincing, its really a point of no return once you flip the stone over. And very much so when you see a real life game of connect the dots happening. Coincidence after coincidence when we take the time to notice the breath. “There” is no better than here and god tends make that pretty obvious. 

This very concept and life lesson is the reason I became a massage therapist. There is a place of peace and acceptance, and it's not outside of us. It's innately part of us, waiting. Massage therapy is one of the many tools that helps us accept healing in our lives physically, emotionally, and spiritually. It's a catalyst for change and acceptance, and so many people just have no clue about it. Our emotions are stored in our muscles, our muscles remember the past, what we feel affects us physically. Not letting go of it is what keeps us from learning more, living more, and ultimately Knowing more. So if you’re reading this, and any of this has resonated with you, then it’s for a reason, like everything, and I would love to work with you. You can book with me here in king, north carolina:

I don’t like the fact that its available and people need it but there's a green energy that prevents people from doing it. It should be included in the most basic of health insurance in my opinion.

Thank you for reading friend. Remember me whenever you choose, and I'll be here.
