2nd Day
The second day was "uneventful" and I did get a lot of "rest" time to reflect on many events. Will write more about my lessons soon :)

Mantra - suggested by Datin Anne Jones
"I am a spiritual being in a physical body. I am divine and made from pure love. I am love."
You are divine because you are created from divine energy.
You are love because you are created from the energy of love.
You are a creator because you were created from the energy of creation.
You are a spirit living in a physical body.

I am Blessed
This is the start of a new blog site - to specifically record "My Journey."
Took yesterday as a start of a new chapter in my life by being "impulsive" and just drove off into the horizon so to speak. Went on one of my "personal retreats." For quite some time I kept hearing this inner voice and feeling a continuous push (or maybe it was the sound and feel of a knocking on the door of my heart) to again take time off to "stop and listen." From time to time I do go off to "phase out the noisiness" of the world to listen to God.
Anyway - take off, I did. Came to this place I've been wanting to visit for so long. And when I arrived - it was truly beautiful. So peaceful - so relaxing ..
And so I spent the day just being .. being me completely .. free to do what I want .. started to do some reading - a book by Anne Jones entitled The Soul Connection.
Although it is a retreat in every sense of the word .. "the act or process of withdrawing" .. it didn't keep me away from FB'ing (that means - Facebook-ing). While I felt I needed to get away from the everyday noise - I wasn't intending to be a monk/hermit to isolate myself from the world completely. So I figured - still connecting to people (but without sound) - is still being connected to God. And indeed I got to speak to a couple of people - I believe all in God's plan.
And then I was awaken .. felt spray (fine sprinkle) of water on my face. That woke me up a little and then I heard water dripping - pitter-patter .. but not the water from the pool outside my room. It sounded like there was a leak. I reached over and found the duvet wet. Quite wet. Whoa!! No no no .. I didn't wet the bed!! It wasn't me. But I quickly flipped on the bedside light .. and found drippings from "heaven." Believe it or not .. there was a tiny hole in the ceiling above me .. it was heavy rain pouring outside and a small drip-drop in my room.
I got up .. got dressed and called the front desk to inform them. So they came and upgraded me to an even bigger and more luxurious room. They were very apologetic .. but I was smiling throughout. Not a big deal really. Everything happens for a reason. I just see this as "I am Blessed" and that was blessing from heaven. :)
And this begins my second day of my personal retreat - September 2010.

Anyway - I did my reading, writing some stuff, etc .. and was up till oh maybe 2 AM+. Sleep came quickly to me .. and it was great to be in an icy-cold room snuggled under a heavy duvet. Sleep was really good.
