The image this week is connecting me with my “witnessing presence”. For some years now my awake time, my dreaming time, and that liminal space between the two is all my real life, the Welcome prayer being a revealing presence. Sunday night in to Monday morning my dreaming time opened a deep ego scar that had become thickened and hard. The experience so deep that it propelled an energy unleashed in the liminal space where the Welcome prayer became very active (perhaps a Jonah in the whale experience). When finally I found myself fully awake I felt the positive energy of anger, no longer am I powerless, an anger gently massaging the long festering wound. Just as we soak in warm salt water the scarred area of a wound, so is Welcome praying time for me.
