Confessions of a Self-taught Filipina Yogi

Who goes through life knowing what to do?

You have to accept that addictions, compulsions, and complexes are the Way to life. They are Life itself in its full artful (not always logical) expressions. They are simultaneously our initiations and our very being.

And if someone rarely speaks about emotional things on-the-spot, choosing to meditate on the topic before expressing thoughts in writing, do they have a conversational defect? A throat chakra blockage? Or is it just a behavior shaped by an over-reactive early life caregiver?

Does it not translate into exceptional writing skills? A focusing and channeling of energy towards a specific outlet? Isn’t a wound in a certain sphere, a power in another?
