I was in a bad spot in life at one time. I was laying in bed wondering how I got to that point. Then all of a sudden I felt a feeling of ecstasy. I couldn't stop smiling and pacing back and forth. I looked at myself in the mirror and started to laugh. I didn't know what was wrong with me. I have never felt so good. I wanted to run out the door and tell everyone about this feeling. It lasted about 30 seconds to a minute, until it was completely gone.
I knew then that everything was going to be ok, and that I needed to help my family and say sorry for the things I had done. I did do that and now I live out here in colorado and feel at peace with the world. Unfortunately, a year ago my little brother passed away from cancer. He was only 19. I knew that he would be ok, no matter what happened. And it's all because of this experience I felt 2 years ago. That is how I am able to deal with his death. I know that there is a higher power and that something is out there.
I have been searching for that feeling of ecstasy ever since, but have yet to find it. You know what I am talking about if this has happened to you. You will know. Hopefully you get to experience it. It will change your life.
I felt this before when I was 17. It felt like I have shifted, awakened. Its the greatest feeling ever! Sometimes I feel that feeling of pure ecstasy when I do things I love like painting or playing the guitar. Many people experience enlightenment in different ways. I experience awakening everyday, everyday is a new day to awaken even further!
