Walking to..........
I can't remember beginning of my conscious spiritual journey. Maybe it was when i was 13 and i went on sailing camp... and we had to swim 50 metres to show that we can swim. I didn't swim well ( i think i didn't swim at all ) but i jumped to high waters of that lake and in the middle of the distance i thought calmly "I think i will drown..." and the next one was "That would be stupid, 20 metres from the land?!" I somehow managed to swim all of the distance, but from that moment I have started to think a lot about death... what, how, why.
Then came high school, and developing of my interests - through photography came the theater, acting. This one pushed me to pantomime. And right know ( in this moment i have realised this one ) i regret so much that i have stoped this one. There are two schools of pantomime / french and the rest of the world. In France physical conditions are most important. Rest of the world think about mental experience. I was in the second one. It really was so. It learned me respect and love to body and to movement, gesture. The moments where everybody looks like they are flying up holding ballons are priceless, and you don't really need mastercard for the rest. Just your intension. Ah. Nevermind. I lived in world created by this things, and luckily i didn't have to go to my high school at all ( this interests toke lots of my time and i told to each of my teachers about that and they agreed that i don't have to go for their classes at all, only exams. I passed German lessons by showing by pantomime word: Germany. )
First in first two years i was catholic as much as i could. Though after this period came time when i had to many questions and priests told me just not to think about them. And i choose god, not the institution of church.
Right know i belive and love Jesus / Sanada and still it hasn't changed.
Then came collage. First was Classical Philology in Cracov. I loved to write ( in polish only :) ) and i thought maybe this will help. Thought it wasn't good choice. Then next one was Theater, acting school. And once again the choice wasn't right. During this period lots of things and thoughts came, and at the end i was living 5 months at the edge of civilization with my parents and youngest sister Gabriela ( 4 years old :) ) ( exams are here in October, and i quit acting at the end of April )
It was manson my parents build for eight years, they work of life as they used to say at that time, in the middle of forest. I drank morning coffee see dears 20 metres away, worked and helped finishing this beautiful place. Working. Calming down after collage life. Playing piano and watching movies at the evenings, i was in heaven, in the same as i am know. I passed exams to Artistic education on University of Lodz and Poznan ( there are daily and evening studies, for the first one you don't have to pay, thought lots of people try in the exams. I was lucky again ) I had choice between psychology/cognitive studies and artistic education, and choice harder path, not so money making - art. The right choice i think.
Before October one thing happened. At 24th of September I was with my dad in the manson and without any reason roof set on fire. Thought the roof and all thing except walls were wooden everything burned. Except for couple of things we managed to bring outside.
I stayed there almost to October to look after the burned house, because my dad went to Warsaw to my mother just to calm down and be with her, with Gaby, and my another sister and brother.
I stayed there because law says that if someone would be hurt by something in burned house my father would go to prison, even if this is his land and no one is permitted to enter, some stupid kid could see the house walk into it... weird country, even weirder law.
This days realised me many things. That's when I started to life all my life, or at least as much as i can spiritually. Except for my parents house, there were all my things i had, souvenirs, adreses, photos, documents, books, cloths. And they weren't that important.
Right know after 8 months i am in small room in Lodz, renting apartment with 2 students of psychology, thinking about magic in life. About Violet light, Energy that flows around, about Source of Everything, God, about Auras, Vibrations. Looking in the internet as much things as i can and then i take a walk to university. i breath. i live. As never before.
Take care. Live. I am only at beginning and i am only 21, but I am trying to learn as much as i can. I wish i could heal people. As mountains did to everyone. I can only help kids from pathological families right know working in foundation doing theatral workshop for them, but i wish i could do much more. Things much more important.
However I have to fix myself first, and that's what i am doing. Right know In this moment, when sun sets in Lodz. Love, Much of Love.

Oh, Matte, what a story you tell. Wonderful deep story. And you are only twenty-one! Szymon, who translates Heavenletters into Polish, is a little younger than you! Very mature like you.
Thank you for telling us your spiritual journey and sharing your heart.
May we have enough spiritual journeys to have a book of them. They touch my heart very much.
With love and blessings,
Gloria

Dear Matte,
how lucky you are to be free of your past and to have such profound insight at your young age! I can remember the exact moment when my spiritual journey began and that was when my father died. I was 40 then. But it doesn't matter how old we are or at what age we open our hearts, the important thing is that we are all doing it at the same time, thus raising the collective consciousness.
How lucky we are to have young people like you in the world! You say you want to heal people, but I think you are already doing it, just being who you are. Your story healed my envy for people who discover spirituality much earlier than I did.
In a recent answer to a personal question God told me: 'You set yourself tasks that are not for you to set.' This made me realize that I didn't need to name myself the saviour of the world. God knows what He's doing, it's not up to me to control His works. God also said: 'I never said you had to be tumultuously happy in order to serve Me.... know that you are what you name yourself. Name yourself GOd's Joy, and be it.'
You are God's Joy also, Matte. :lol:
Thankyou for sharing.
Paula

Sharing my life's story is nothing anyone should thank for! You should thank yourself Paula cause it is not the story that heal you, it is your inner light who made it, you as a human being. No one can change anybodies life except for himself. I am truly amazed for what you did, and i am happy with you.
I read once that changing yourself / developing spirituality / understanding / believing is one of the greatest things you can do - and truly the only one.
By changing yourself you act as the little healthy cell in body, and you heal other sick cells by being next to and sending your love, radiating love. Nothing more. This works.
There is universal law that things attract other similar. What do you think about it?
>> How lucky we are to have young people like in the world!
it is not about youth, it is about how you feel. "You don't stop laughing because you grow old, you grow old because you stop laughing"
:) isn't that queue so true...
Best example is my last holiday in mountains, i was walking through calm district of one city close to mountains with my friend and there was old lady walking, wearing white hat. There was couple of old trees on the right of the road. The lady started to talk with us, she huged me and said that she was looking for this road for 4 hours and finally she found them. She was so happy, laughing a bit. I asked her "Do you want tea?" And she replied "No i have some orange juice. Do you want some!!!!"
She was happy cause she remembered the old trees. And then she said: "I have to go cause thirty people is looking for me up and they are screaming "where is that woman in white hat!" /she started to laugh a bit, and it was good happy laugh full of love and joy of life/ I will be dancing till morning.
Not to mention it was 11 A.M. I felt the place she touched for two hours, magic feeling. She was an angel. She was so young, her eyes where, even if she was 80. Her name was Aurelia.
I don't remember main thought :) Take care. With love and smile.

Oh Matte,
I disagree. This is indeed the story of your
spiritual journey, and you are doing beautifully
important healing work right now! You are very wise
for 21. Remember Mother Teresa's quote: "No one can
do great things. Just small things with very great
love."
May you always travel in the Light.
Namaste,
Jo
