The Path of the Energetic Healer is a Curious One

[Brian]

The path of the energetic healer is a curious one. When we listen, we are guided to service.

 

Today, I had to run an errand and I chose to do it at Noon. The person I needed to see wasn't there so the trip was "wasted" and I'll have to return later. As I was leaving, I passed a restaurant I haven't eaten at in a very long time because it isn't very good. For some reason, though, I felt I should go there -- so I turned around and went back.

 

A well-known fast-food chain in a bad part of town, I sat in the car for a minute, second-guessing myself. "No," I thought, "I'm here." So I walked in.

 

The woman at the register said to the woman next to her, "OK, you try this one." I recognized that she was a trainee, and I noticed a bandage at her elbow as she took my order. I realized, though, that there was something else going on, more than just nervousness. I extended and reinforced my shield and I asked myself (really asking the Light through my higher-level self) if this woman needed my help. The feedback was positive.

 

As I took my change and my cup, I thanked her -- to which she replied, "No, thank you" with more emotion in her voice than seemed necessary.

 

"You are going to be OK," I told her.

 

I stepped away to fix my drink and she was gone when I turned back towards the counter. "Hmmm..."

 

My food came momentarily and I sat down and began to silently and inconspicuously bless my meal, and I included her in my prayer.

 

A few minutes later, an ambulance pulls in with lights and siren. One guy races in while his partner unloads a gurney. The first woman says, "She's in the back! We were really worried but she seems better now."

 

Second guy brings in the gurney as a firetruck rolls in. He leaves the gurney by the door, next to my table, and goes into the back of the restaurant to join his partner.

 

About two minutes later, the two EMTs come out on either side of the woman who had taken my order. As they are helping her into the gurney, one of them says, "we'll need to take you in so the doctors can take a look but you are going to be OK."

 

As he was saying that last part, she noticed me sitting there. The look of shock on her face was priceless and her mouth hung open. After lying back and while they were putting a blanket on her, she turned her head towards me, looked me in the eyes and softly said, "Thank you."

 

The EMT naturally thought she was speaking to him (and she may have thought so on one level, too) and he started a little patter about how this was standard procedure and began telling her what was going to happen next. She smiled a little smile, rested her head back and closed her eyes.

 

They were loading her in the back of the ambulance a few minutes later when I walked out the door on the other side of the place and got in my car.

That little voice just has to be listened to.  and sometimes, to follow it, you just know that folks are going to think you crazy.  And sometimes it seems like we are.  But the times it pays off to follow it, to listen, to engage when all common sense tells us to mind our own business - like don Juan Mateus said to Casteneda - 'sometimes we get to see it, sometimes we don't'.
