My last radio show was in October but somehow feels like longer - I can barely remember it.
But as I emerged from the cocoon of the Bloop basement studio on Friday, I felt a sadness which caused me to reflect on the fact that the studio sometimes feels womb-like and has the capacity to disconnect one from the vicissitudes of life - it’s like a world of its own.
Life has been intense over the past year or so, replete with sadness, pain, grief and joy.
Pain and sadness and grief:
Sadness with the illness of two family members, to include lung and prostate cancer for one (men get tested).
Grief with a couple of bereavements that always evoke the grief of the loss of my mother…my mummy.
With one bereavement being so devastating that I wouldn’t be able to make it through. It was also enlightening in ways that… in ways.
Pain and grief with an ex so-called best friend reaching out to me evoking pain that I hadn’t allowed myself to feel as a result of her treatment of me. ’Twas time to feel and understand its unconscious impact on my relationships.
Joy
The fact I started the journey to training to become a counsellor in January and then started another course in October the enable me to train to become a Jungian psychotherapist meaning I’m doing two courses concurrently!

The fact I am becoming more me.
Someone once said that we should be truthful as if our life depends upon it because it does. This stayed with me - because like, what could she mean?
And then I discovered the meaning: truth is not separate from Self and nor is it separate from life. Indeed it is the meaning of the “Christian” “tree of life which = substance of life which = true Self.
It is also love.

The set was deep, dark, underground as f**k designed to vibrate the above and more; and it worked.
