We had this class. Like every other day of the week. Doing exercises. Techniques. One paticular technique pushed us to remember our childhood. Nothing wrong about that. Nothing at all. Still I couldn't quite get into the state the teacher wanted us to. Why? I guess I was all right. Or at least my childhood was. Or so I thought. Then the teacher said something. Made us remember something else. My mother's hands. And I was gone. It hit me like a bolt from the blue. I just couldn't stop myself. Crying. Crying like there is no tomorrow. Could't stop. The teacher had to pull me out of it. Saying; "Just breathe...breathe...take a deep breath in and out...breathe..." Then slowly I got back in control. Very slowly. The teacher asked me if I had issues with my mother, did she pass, I said no. We talked some more, she gave me some advice how to mend it. Nothing really to be mended. Yet it is.
What I found out in that moment is that my feelings are very strong. Perhaps even stronger that I have ever realized. And I need to do something about that. Just not yet. Because it's powerful. And I want to thank her. Tell her right to her face. And that's why.
It was amazing.
