Climbing a tree



Coming here has been like climbing a tree. But no only climbing but getting my way through the roots in a huge tree. Being here I could see how much I was trying to survive while in the forest. Being there there is no time to look up to see how the canopy looks like....I have to be all the time making my movements with so much care than to look up could be risky as we can not see the sky as many branches are covering the blue sky.



In this tour I have had the chance to be at the canopy with other people. World Pulse took Beatrice and Sarvina with me to see from other perspectives how different live could be. We have talked to many other people willing to know how to be in other branches of the tree will looks like. And both, we are surprised but also them. It is a reciprocal thing. The tour exposed our histories to be tell but also hearts to get open.... and they are willing to do something. Anything.



My own history seems too small when I hear Beatrice or Sarvina challenges. I can not imagine going through so much pain...but when I see Beatrice tears by my history I realized how difficult is also mine. We just forget and forgive and we keep trying and trying and at some point we will make it through.



Energy has been moving feelings, fears, tears, love, tenderness, compassion, reciprocity, conviction, PASSION....All those feelings have been allowing me to keep going even knowing than when I go back I have to deal with any issues I might have had. Coming down will be difficult as now I know where I am going....I have to go. But I will take down there with me all the kindness and wisdom I might have get from each person I met. I might take with me all the love and compassion to be able to come down with no fear or anything at all. I have now the strength I was loosing while dealing with so many issues at the same time. My heart is not shaking anymore and if it is of joy. Because now I can remember that even if I can not see the blue sky I am sure it is there. I just have to go up to take a deep breath and keep on going.



A new language is coming to my body. An older one which tells me we will make it.
