Re: Jed McKenna
Just finished the first book. Wow.
I wasn't shocked, upset, offended, bothered, annoyed, or otherwise rattled, but that's not to say I wasn't deeply moved and profoundly affected. I even dreamed about this book, which means I was taking it in on a very, very deep level.
I did pick up a few interesting nuggets of wisdom that resonate with me. And I had a big, big realisation, which is that I've already done a lot of the hard work. It's been a really quirky path, to be sure, but I'm a really quirky person, so it's not that surprising. But the thing about seeing that you don't really exist (which, I might add, at least three people tried to talk me out of, including the man who is now my husband, because he thought I was slipping into some kind of serious depression), the mental breakdown, the thing with shining the light of reason on the lies and b***sh** you've got in your head, and, oh, a lot of other stuff mentioned in the book, hey, been there and done that. And then I took a few years' break (seriously) and had some babies and then it started up again in a different way (this time with a lot of physical manifestations that appear to be finally resolving themselves, although that's not mentioned in the book, especially). And now I'm here, wherever here is. And pretty soon, I'm going to be elsewhere, even though, really, I've always been there, I just have taken a long time to figure it all out.
Wow. Cool. What a damned cool book.
I don't care if it's fiction or part fiction or a fictionalised story based on someone's real life observations or what. I don't care if there are some contradictions. I loved, loved, loved this book. It was a great read and I'm so glad the Universe kept putting Jed McKenna in my path.
How I'll feel about the second book is unknown at this time, of course, but the first one, just WOW. Damned. Good. Book.
May the light surround you, may you be blessed. May the light surround us, may we be blessed. May love and light surround us all, and may we all be healed and blessed. And so it is, and so it shall be, now and ever after.
