Forgotten


 

This post relates to a lonely time in my life.  It was a time of being forgotten, a time of isolation.  It made me better, but it did hurt.

The above video comes from Seal (one of my favorite artists) and I found it during that time of isolation.  The director portrays well the idea of being alone (notice Seal singing and all of the people walking past him).  I was struck by how connected I was to the theme.

Fortunately, I had wise mentors/advisors who told me that I would need to go through a period of aloneness.  That counsel prepared me, but it didn't take away the pain. If you're reading this and don't have someone to give you direction, then email me and I will.  No charge, just encouragement.

Now I can look back and see how that time was essential in remaking me into who I am today.

Life is sometimes like Hebrew.

  1. Hi Lois,
    Thanks for the comments and you’re right about the encouagement/hope. The offer came from the heart as I wrote.
    The idea of life being like Hebrew came from a former mentor. There was a time in my life where circumstances made no sense, and he told me that life was sometimes like Hebrew, you need to read it backwards to understand it.

  2. Wow, Eric what a kind and generous offer for folks. So many people need encouragement and hope these days.
    So curious: how is life like Hebrew?
    Best,
    Lois
