In continuing the dating theme - and the exploration of relationships - I'm going to catch up on something I wrote over 3 years ago, and continue where I left off. Read here for the history - http://thespirit.magickalmusings.com/journ…jan00/31100.htm
In June 2000, I moved to New Zealand to be with Michelle (Mish). From this relationship I learnt that women can seem wonderful to begin with, but deep down inside, they can be hiding an entire lifetime of pain and craziness. It was my first experience with someone emotionally fucked up and psychotic.
Yesterday someone contacted me for a survey about online dating. I responded to their survey questions and gave a few thoughts about online dating, in relation to my own experiences in the past.
Since then, I've been thinking about something that I read a while ago, and which I may have commented on here about (or I could be confusing it with talking about it to one of my online friends).
I've been thinking about recording my own dating experiences. Recording the events, my feelings, whatever funny might have happened, and so on. Maybe things I learn, etc.
REIKI alternative medical treatment: a treatment in alternative medicine in which healing energy is channeled from the practitioner to the patient to enhance energy and reduce stress, pain, and fatigue. [Late 20th century. From Japanese, universal life force energy.]
This is pretty exciting for me, 'cause I've been wanting to do Reiki for years, but never really had the opportunity make itself known to me. Finally I did the course yesterday, and now I have a certificate that allows me to do it.
- I've re-organised my finances so that my debt repayments each month are greatly reduced (eg. I've paid out my credit card and restructured my personal loan). I was pleased that my bank advised me today that I've been put on a 'preferred customer' list, which apparently means any requests I have of them in future will be treated quicker, and I'll get a better response in terms of credit applications. Nice. Makes a big change from my past, when I didn't have any money most of the time, and my bank didn't know me from Arthur, Martha or Jack.
