Hilo on a Saturday, Coconut Island on the bridge, thoughts.

On the bridge to coconut island today, (Moku Ola, one of my favorite places to stand & think) entertaining deep, not entirely pleasant thoughts, but my thoughts nonetheless.

Doing this while watching kids jump off into the water…Watching the water…watching the minnows…Watching the world around me. Big tall guy, maybe a visitor to Hilo, walking on my side of the bridge looks like he might walk into me, doesn’t but passes behind me then stops & stands on my left. Asks me (in his slightly or maybe very tipsy voice) “Are you OK?”

(Says it almost as if he feels like he’s worried I might jump? Me wondering if he has been watching the kids jump off this very low bridge over and over. Probably not.)

He says “It’s just good to ask”.

Me, (even though I agree with that sentiment in principle) immediately establish my “don’t mess with me wall”, look directly at him and say “I’m good.”

To which he replies “OK I’ll leave you alone.” Which was the correct response on his part.

Interesting interaction. So many ways I might answer if it was someone I felt like I could answer.

Yes. No. Maybe. Right now I’m pondering deep thoughts. I’m looking at the water & thinking about how much I sometimes still seek approval and belonging. I’m dealing with aging. I just came from Pride that was a drive through event, which was deeply surreal and felt at once really good and really lonely.

I feel a little bad that I have to activate the iron wall, bad that I know from experience that to not do that in this situation (per intuition) rarely ends well. Part of me wanting to reward some level of caring. Wanting to say “I don’t know if anyone you ask that question these days, being completely honest in the social sense can truly answer in the affirmative”.

Maybe I reminded him of himself, maybe he was hoping to get lucky, maybe he was bad news. I wasn’t interested in a long enough conversation to find out.

I do however, appreciate any of his motives that were altruistic, since I might have had more of my inner workings showing on the outside as I was in mid-ponder.

And at the same time I would like to be able to have my thoughts uninterrupted while looking over the water. Which is usually the case.

So I took it as the Universe saying OK, you’re done, time to leave those thoughts for now. You spoke the truth, you are actually good. Nothing more to see here, move along.

Aloha and Blessings,

Erika

Two announcements: I have a special running & I am on Bandcamp!

I hope you are all hanging in there through the crazy year called 2020!!

I have been working on a lot of stuff (easier to do when I am home all the time these days) and I will be posting more about some of them later. I know I could make this two posts and maybe I should do that hahah however I have this sense that if I do that one of them may go unnoticed and I am totally excited about both of them.

Plus I am in the process of getting my sites ready to possibly migrate to another hosting platform, however I won’t bore you with that at the moment 🙂

The two things I wanted to post about today are…

1. I am finally on Bandcamp! https://erikaginnis.bandcamp.com/ 

I have remastered and moved my tracks from my CD “Essential Mysteries Meditations: A Lesson in Transformation” to Bandcamp. They are available there to listen to and purchase if you like them. I have a follow link in the sidebar if you want to be able to find me easily and also to know about new releases as I have have meditation music I will be uploading in the future and will also continue to create more guided meditations.


2. I have a special running through at least the end of October. It’s probably the most dramatic special thus far (how could 2020 have anything less), and as so many other things, the idea of it came to me in a meditation.

===
“COVID-19 & What a Bizarre World, October way special pricing.

Times have been so intense lately and money can be a limiting factor. Since I love working with people and it always feels like we both benefit, I got the idea in a meditation this week, that for appointments held between now and October 31st I will offer my one hour sessions (www.inbreath.com/ekgbroc4.htm) for ✨whatever✨ you feel comfortable paying. You get to decide what actually works for you.

Please send me an email or PM. When we schedule the session I’ll give you my PayPal link that will let you type in any amount and you handle the rest.**

All sessions are by phone (Skype or messenger if you’re not in the US)

**For those that are already my awesome regular monthly clients who I appreciate so much (…you know who you are 💖), I will gift you one additional session hour, to use between now and the end of 2020, add it to a session or book any time or give to to a friend. Contact me by email or PM.”

The Path Made Clear. Sunday talk given by Erika Ginnis, recorded at The Center for Spiritual Living East Hawaii on 5-24-2020

This is from back in May, and you may have seen it then as part of the entire service. I have just the talk now as a video so I am going to be cross-posting 🙂 it’s 28 minutes long and even though two months seems like an eternity these days, I believe it’s still useful and relevant. Blessings and aloha.
