Running From Shadows or Why Where Ever You Are Is Where You Are

Posted on timeMarch 3rd, 2010 by userAdvisor


It is difficult to imagine anyone living in all the Arizona space and sun having any problems at all. Still, in Scottsdale therapists are flourishing and in Phoenix counseling is required no less than in the darker colder regions of the country. Perhaps it is the large number of retired persons who move to these warmer climates to live out their final days in golfing bliss, only to find that even though the weather is nice, and the air is dry, they are still who they were before, except now lacking in purpose and lost from their families and friends.

Perhaps it is all that sunshine that keeps a person always on the go, never able to take a quiet rainy day to sink down in to their own personal misery. Instead they have to fish and do water aerobics and play croquet and be go exploring in a cold dark rock when it is so much lighter outside. Certainly, some spots in Arizona, such as Sedona are touted as spiritually uplifting, but once again, the the important expression here is up. The mountains in Sedona contain connecting spirals that increase your energy, awareness and overall consciousness. Nowhere is it ever proclaimed that there is a vortex that causes you togaze profoundly at the pain you have caused yourself and others. The vortexes are just beautiful, places where you can magically heal without having to do any of that gloomy self reflection that therapists make you do.

The Grand Canyon is glorious and awesome to behold. All smallness disappears in the face of such grandeur , until we get back in our cars and have to drive in one lane of puttering traffic, and get pulled over by the Flagstaff police for going fifty-five in a thirty-five miles per hour zone and then get stuck in an ice storm the next morning where the car spins off the side of the road because you didn’t think to put snow tires on, because you were going to Arizona, where it’s always sunny and you were just in Phoenix tubing down the river a few days before. The point is, that no matter where we live or travel, in the end {the journey leads us back to ourselves the trip ends within and sometimes, if we are lost, it’s okay to get a little help, even if you do live in Arizona.
