I know my body can't go anywhere, but my mind and my spirit sure can! I can leave my body here and go play out in the ethers. Oh, it is so fun out there, you know! Spiritual laws are so much more lovely than physical ones, and much more enjoyable. Where love heals all things, creation takes but a thought, where there is no time, only this moment, there IS a purpose and meaning to everything, and we are all filled with this divine light and wisdom. Being in the physical, sometimes it's easy to forget them. Easy to feel like they don't exist, that the only thing that does exist is pain and suffering because that's what keeps popping up. The physical world is so dense, so separate. It can feel imprisoning. The spiritual world is so free and expansive!
I've been feeling the strong desire to run away lately. The type of running away that involves hole-ing myself up in a room and ignoring everyone, and escaping into a book. Or watching a movie marathon (SO wanting to watch all of the Harry Potters back to back!) and not taking care of any physical responsibilities, like cooking or cleaning. Or even losing myself in deep thought. Engaging myself in the philosophical and spiritual world that I've kept separate from my "real" life. The stuff that feels so right and just pours out of me when writing to someone online, but that has a difficult time coming out of my mouth in a way that makes sense to other people when talking face to face.

Tonight our whole family watched the new American Girl movie on tv- I have really enjoyed all of the American Girl movies so far (the Samantha movie is my favorite!) and this one was no exception. The feelings that kept coming up for me while watching, which really had nothing to do with the movie itself and more to do with my own "stuff", were all around how much I missed having a powerful body. Remembering how awesomely strong I felt when doing back handsprings and swinging on the bars and running towards the vault with all my might and then flying into the air. Oh, my body remembers those feelings!

My name is Kathryn Long
I am sensitive introvert who is recovering my artistic side and uncovering and finding the courage to be the person I came here to be. I firmly believe that our differences make us stronger, our similarities bring us together, and our love connects us into one big messy, complicated, amazing family! Archives
