Thank you Lavina for your posting, I was very moved by it.
Today I was giving massage to a 48 year old man who 2 years ago received a
spinal injury in a car crash resulting in paralysis from the shoulders down.
He was a very active and independent man.
He talked to me of his frustration, anger and self hatred. How he feels
trapped in his body with no hope really.
He said he never really understood or paid much attention to 'spirituality'
but is finding himself more and more drawn to escape his nightmare through
meditation but he just doesn't really get it.
His anger and frustration is so tangible.... I find myself stumbling over my
words. I want so much to inspire and encourage him and offer him some hope.
But words and ideas fail me. How could I ever understand. Please God I will
never have to.
When I open my heart to empathise it hurts so much I can't take it. He is
wallowing in self pity, which makes it even worse but who could blame him?!
Life can seem so cruel.... and faced with stories such as his and Lavina's my
philosophising fails me.

And our body's too.
Treasuring every moment with love, Charles x
