the K&P sessions

Have you ever wondered how strange it is that we operate two dimensionally in a three dimensional world? Our cognition and understanding of the world around us seem to toggle between dual opposites of good and evil, here and there, now and then, us and them, love and hate...

In case you’re wondering what’s this all about and, more importantly, where am I going with it, my pal K and I recently, and surprisingly, shared a what I might called sublime connection. All of us find connection with one another in one or more ways: physical, emotional, intellectual, or spiritual. What I mean when I say sublime is that it was none of those mentioned earlier but was something close to what some may consider divine. Since I’m not a man of religion, I wouldn’t know how one feels when one’s touched by divinity.

K was the first to visit me when I first walked away from my last relationship. It was the usual here-to-lend-a-listening-ear social call which was already kind of odd considering we weren’t even that close to begin with. At first, I held back as much information as I could, not wanting to disclose anything that I might later regret. So, it began furtively and a little awkwardly. However, as our conversation developed, I found myself thinking more clearly and was able to make sense of some of the pieces of puzzles about the relationship that had been troubling me. And, when the truth finally hit me, I fell into rage and despair. At that moment, K said to me, “Ok. This is where I have to stop you. I know you've been badly burned and you have every right to be angry but, if you go down that path you’ll end up hurting yourself even more cos, for want of a better word and I’m not patronising you, you’re a child of Light.. (right there and then, I felt a pulse deep within my consciousness) and it isn’t your duty to seek out justice in this matter. What you need to do now is to heal and I know you will.”

As he was leaving, I asked K what had prompted him to make that sudden visit since I had told no one about the breakup. He replied, “Actually, it’s the second time that I sense you aren’t doing so good. The first time you were deep in the situation and weren’t able to process all that was happening. All I know is that I have to see you (another resonating pulse).”

Thank you, K. You’ve no idea how much all those words you spoke to me that night meant to me. I still believe that everything happens for a reason, the same goes for the troubles you’re carrying with you this moment. But, take heart, you aren’t alone. Not from now on anyway.
Just as twigs we may be fragile and broken but, I don’t need to remind you what happens when you bundle them altogether, now, do I?
