Dorky Me

Here is a HUGE part of why I love travelling so much. Tell me if it happens to you too....
have you ever looked around when you're in a busy place, and the people start to look familiar? Not just because you've been staring at them for a few minutes, but you could SWEAR you've seen them before?
It happens to me quite often- people always think they know me or have seen me before....and it's usually when I'm in a huge crowd of people, now that I can control my energy better and I don't let it get sucked away by all the other energy....I can almost see through the veil of illusion! It's magic!
If the veil were lifted up, we would all shimmer just a little bit and we'd see the barely visible but stronger than anything else out there strings attaching us to one another. You know it's true! You know that you could pick a "random" stranger, and find something that you both have in common that not many other people would. What do they call it? The 6 degrees of seperation. Yes! It's true. We are all connected. We probably DO recognize the others. If we're all eternal then we most certainly are familiar with WAY more people than we "remember".
I like to "read" people, too. I have no idea how far off I am when I do it, but I visit their energy, mingle and see if I can place who they are in relation to the others they are with and what's going on with them. I had a couple ahead of me on the plane with a 10 week old baby (guessing on the age). She had a load of hair, it was almost funny how much she had. Anyway---my guess on them was that they are newly married (relatively speaking of course), and she loves him in above and beyond. I don't even know what that means, but that's what it feels like to me. But there is something in her. There's a block of some sort. It seems like she's moved past it, so maybe she really struggled being pregnant? I don't feel like it's current, like PPD or anything, but that there's something "back there".
See? Stupid. But I can still see them and feel that block. I can almost see her in labor, as a matter of fact. Sweating, the way her bangs were stuck on her forehead, how red her face was, and how in AWE her husband was, watching what she was doing.
*shakes head*
Yes, the plane ride home almost made me cry with the preciousness of that many souls being together and how incredible it actually it. On the first plane home I sat with two people I just couldn't love enough. A man who grew up in St. Pete and another who lives in Michigan. I could have listened to them chat forever. I got to chat too, but it was way more interesting listening to them. I felt like they were both my dad, safe sitting there. The older of the two offered to move so CJ could sit next to me. He probably thought I was nuts when I exclaimed NO! No, he's fine! (which he was, and I wanted that experience for him. He was sitting straight ahead of me, but without Cullen, me or his siblings).
I feel restored in that way.
I feel devastated that we're home in another way. I don't think I'm going to make it through the snow this time.
Sigh.
We got a thank you email from Tradewinds that says "your beachside hammock is waiting for you" and it almost made me cry.
More later! You know I am not done spewing crazy all over the place yet.
