I’ve decided to delete the audio cast of The Story Behind A Sacred Spot. I now have a more “truthful” understanding of that time period, which of course comes with time, but I’ve started the process of writing a book that has allowed me to further explore my experiences around that time period.  The clouds have parted, again for me, as they did in 2008 when i wrote the lyrics to Sacred Spot.  It’s interesting how as clouds or delusions part one particular day, new clouds start to form. I have to call it life, and refrain from calling the experience of delusion, good or bad.  It’s part of my education and development.  I am happy now that I have come out on the other side of the delusion, relieved, even liberated.  So if I look at the liberation as a gift from life, then complaining or feeling guilty about how I allowed myself to be manipulated by someone, is like turning down and discrediting the gift.  Everything in my life has brought me to where I am now. Although a painful process at times, I am even more aware of my own manipulation of others, now that I’ve experienced it. I’m also learning to protect myself from the manipulations and delusions of others. I haven’t posted the words and music to “Like a Vampire” yet, but it was written about manipulation. Again, the message is for me to not be “Like a Vampire”, as well as to watch out for the various “vampires” that pop up in life. More another time! Cheryl
