You have been given a taste of something most people never experience during
a lifetime! :)) Wonderful! Desiring it to continue/return is tantamount
to rejecting it, because by doing so you are saying you know better what is
best for you! :)) Try giving gratitude for that which you have already been
given. You might find that you start seeing god/energy in everything around
you, not just in the sensation of bliss.
The outward effects of the energy also seem to be cyclical, but remember that
the energy is always there. The feeling that you have lost God, is simply a
mental construct. You are always part of it and it of you.
Love, Hillary
