to experience a spiritual experience twice in a lifetime is, I believe something of a tremendous undertaking and, in my case quite remarkable late last night I received my second one it quite astounded me it was as though I was privy to age-old secrets I felt wisdom entering my body through my mind this wisdom, late at night rejuvenated my whole being thought processing of the mind my physical body was even transformed I was slightly in shock to say the least my whole being was transformed and quite mesmerized so much so I went to bed contended without taking my nightly medicine slept like the dead through the night waking up feeling absolutely wonderful it is hard for me to even try to explain but suffice it to say and to use a very old phrase I felt like I was reborn not a religious experience far from it I hate to say it fearing the hoots and jeers but to me when I awoke I lay there for a long time trying to get a handle on my encounter with . . . my future self as I lay there remembering what had happened to me last night and . . . here it comes . . . ahhh . . . somehow I understood that I was trying to talk to me from across centuries maybe where I’d been reborn or reincarnated filling me with gained wisdom enough so that it made my old self feel young again even put enough insightful understanding into this old brain of mine giving me clear headedness to cease and desist my old ways and travel through the rest of my life knowing my path is my path to walk as I want but to accept the warmth and understanding of my new way of thinking this was difficult for me to write but I have done my best ©February 10, 2017 / Jerry Pat Bolton ~ If they give you ruled paper, write sideways. ~ |

Self-realization is very difficult to relate, no doubt. That being said, I read joy in your words Mr. Bolton. My wish for you then, is that you continue to experience a joy in life. A pleasure to read. Pass the Glade if you're going to do that here... |

You are a blessed man Jerry. Sorry you feel like there would be hoot and jeers from your friends here. Your experience is a cause for celebration! Don't belittle the moment with worries of thoughts of others. All that matters is that it was life changing for you. Not everyone gets to experience what you did. Like I said you are blessed. ~L |

Ah, Lori, you always know just what to say, and I thank you forever for you saying it. No sweat, things are good. I turn another year today, so that, in itself, is good. ~ If they give you ruled paper, write sideways. ~ |
