Yesterday I had the priviledge to meet a beautiful woman with an amazing heart and a peaceful soul. Though our chance meeting was brief, but she told me how, as a 5-year-old girl, she feared for her own survival while imprisoned by the Nazis. But she quickly lead her story to how it taught her compassion, and faith, and to realize that the Nazis were just doing the best that they knew how. That she forgave them, and she moved on.
Wow… I said to myself. Standing here in front of me is a true spiritual being, embodied in a woman who even in her advanced age has skin that is almost flawless, and her eyes still bright and full of insight and love. The steps she takes with her feet aren’t slowed by age, but by purposefulness as I watched her admiring the trinkets in the store we were in.
Having just finished my first draft for my booklet regarding Musculoskeletal Disorders ( MSD ) and its relationship with repressed emotions, it wasn’t surprising to me when she told me that she hardly has any aches and pains so common in people her age even though she routinely carries heavy loads due to her love of gardening. She sees her doctor usually for physical checkups, rarely for complaints.
Although no one needs to convince me that the mind and heart truly has domain over our physical vitality, my synchronistic meeting with her has made my belief into a conviction.
As delighted as she was to have a conversation with me about forgiveness and love, I am truly honored even after she walked away from the store that my life was touched by such a powerful soul with a very, very important message to the world:
Your life experience is what you make of it. At any point in time you have the decision to let it make you, or break you. But never are you a victim, because you always, ALWAYS have a choice.
and 
among others, rave about what the simple habit of tapping has changed his life.
