Things are changing. A letting go. A falling away.

To begin, you’ll drop all outward extensions of learning or gaining insight to your life. You’ll be learning first-hand, getting your own direct information and right away. Dowsing... You will gain knowledge of who you really are, the true causes in your life, the reason why certain people are in it, and finally, what do to with it all. These “revelations” come of their own time, are for you only, and speaking of them…well…you’ll simply know that it is your business and no one else’s. These awareness’s are highly personal to you alone and are for your growth and no others, unless as a means to help you understand someone in compassion and as a means to help them. Creativity, kindness, patience, silence, giving, doing, being, will all push for release and actualization in your daily life modality. [b][i]Give them that expression. Let those waves flow through you. [/i][/b] :hf: [/quote] This resonates. I do think "release" is key. Like a dam break of energy. Not sure why. It's almost as if the current state of things is claustrophobic and I need to set free or breathe or untether. Can you suggest any readings, meditations, etc? [/quote] Here it's all About to put aside all thoughts of the past and the future and stay in the present. Mindfulness Meditation is what I try to practice in all my daily routine. Always keep My mind In the NOW the inner workings. “Mindfulness is awareness that arises through paying attention, on purpose, in the present moment, non-judgementally” [/quote] I agree with everything you say especially about the mindfulness meditaton It helps so much when you are experiencing what the OP has described as it helps to keep one balanced :hf: [/quote]

There really arent enough words or maybe, more accurately, not the right words to describe what I've been experiencing for a few months, maybe as far back as a year and a half. And it feels like it is coming to a crescendo.
It's like a quiet questioning of everything that I am or have done or think or feel. A questioning of all that I have always thought was true or accurate or real. in encompasses people, relationahips, places.
It's almost like peeling an onion. The peeling away reveals a new layer which must also be peeled.
It's so existential that I wonder what will be left of me.
And there is a sense that others are quietly going through this same surreal process.
So, am I alone here? What is this? Spiritual? Metaphysical? Cosmic? Is it just the turning of an age?
