When a little fear sneaks in...



Sometimes a little fear can sneak in and cause havoc in the body as well as the heart. The part of our body which feels the fear, or becomes ill because of the fear, gives us the clue. Legs. Eyes. Feet.
Louise Hay has a lot to say about this.

So, my legs are aching for help.

Is there any connection between my pain and Reuben's? Is all this research for the screenplay bringing something ancient and ancestral to the surface?


I just read inspirational Michaela's new blog post, her details are below.

It is true to say we can heal anything, but we can't always cure everything. This is the theme of my screenplay. Creativity Heals. Will Reuben heal before he dies of a heart attack ?

'There is a brokenness
out of which comes the unbroken
a shatteredness
out of which blooms the unshatterable.

There is a sorrow beyond all grief
which leads to joy
and a fragility
out of whose depths emerges strength.

There is a hollow space,
too vast for words
through which we pass with each loss
out of whose darkness we are sanctioned into being.

There is a cry
deeper than sound
whose serrated edges cut the heart
as we break open
to the place inside
which is unbreakable and whole
while learning to sing.'

Rashani, 13th century Sufi mystic
