Lotus Flower Symbolizes Rising from Darkness into Beauty
1. The lotus flower symbolizes rising from a dark place into beauty and rebirth, as this is
exactly how a lotus flower grows. Lotus flowers grow directly out of muddy and
murky waters and produce beautiful white and pink blossoms. Lotus flowers are
often referred to in Buddhist studies and they are a
symbol of strength among adversity.
2. I woke up that Memorial Day in 1989 and decided to open the pool.
That night I was exhausted - I fell asleep - the last chime I heard on my clock was
7:30 PM. When I woke up - the clock was chiming 11:00 PM - Something started to
happen - I knew I was awake - I could feel an energy entering my body from the top of my
head - I heard the chime for 11:15 PM. I could feel the energy move into my forehead
down through my eyes. My eyes became empty sockets - my head became a skull of a
dead person - as the energy continued to move down the rest of my body - my body was
now a skeleton with skin on it - I remember me saying - Oh my goodness, did I
die? Then “an energy” started returning into the bottom of my feet on up to the rest of
my body. I could feel the skeleton under my skin filling up - when it got to my head - the
eye sockets were now my eyes - it then moved up and out the top of my head. I then
heard the chime for 11:45 PM - I never heard the chime for 11:30 PM. When I became
fully awake - I said, "What in the world was that." - I hadn't been afraid.
I have never been the same since that day.
That Saturday of Labor Day Weekend of 1989
I needed to lie down on my bedroom floor. I dozed off and woke up a few minutes later
and tried to get up. As I tried to sit up, out of the blue, a Hand lay on my chest and
gently pushed me back down and then this booming voice said, "Gwen, you are going
to go through a very rough time; but know you will be OK.”
3. In 1971 I saw this painting of a little girl in a red dress with these big black eyes. I stood at awe in front of this
painting, feeling almost frozen in place. It was not until 20 years later when I was in therapy that I realized the
reason for the impact of this painting. It was not until the early 1990’s that I was able to find the name of the artist,
Margaret Keane,. I came to find out she painted many, many children with these same eyes and they were children
of war in the artist’s eyes. In fact, she either loaned or donated a painting she had done depicting children of all
nations, race and creed with these eyes to The United Nations [of which] I was told, hung in the lobby for years. I
had learned, in the 1990’s, of an exhibition she was having at the Laguna Art Museum in California so I called them
for her catalog. It is from this catalog I have taken the excerpt of an essay titled: So—What is it About Those Eyes?”
(How Pain Becomes Kitsch) by Judith E. Vida, MD a psychoanalyst who writes about life and art. The beginning of
the essay: “It is by finding out what something is not that one comes close to understanding what it is.” ~Alan de
Botton.~ The last few lines of the essay say: “Kitsch is what we call it when we belittle with contempt that which
frightens us, that which unnerves us for our utter inability to contain its contradictions. There is a gap between
what we see when we first come upon “those eyes” (when we too are open) and what we see when our defenses
shut us down. There is a gap between the larger social purpose for which World War II was fought and the
millions of individual lives sacrificed or deformed to attain that purpose. “Those eyes” of Margaret Keane looked
into that gap, and then they, too, became as frightened as the rest of us to go on looking.”
Margaret Keane feels
“Eyes are the windows to the
Soul”

4. We’re together My Little One and I
“I know I am 51
But I feel like I am 5
Last feels first
Young feels old
So it is TRUE
I was 51 when I was 5”

I did not know in 1990 that
I was born in 1937
not 1939
Beginning in 2016 My EFT (Emotion Freedom Technique) Tapping Script:
“If I keep holding you accountable in the court house of my mind, I will always have to limp
around with the wounds. I am sick and tired of limping. I am sick and tired of being afraid. I am
sick and tired of doubting myself all this time. I am sick and tired of criticism. I am at a cross
road. I can either hold you accountable for ever and keep my wounds or I can move forward
letting you be less important in my adult life. I am wired to be filled with courage.
That is my TRUTH. I am wired to shine with every cell of my body.”
5. “This is a True Story. The names have NOT been changed to protect the innocent. If I am going to write
my story, it is going to be the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth; or there is no sense in me
writing it at all. If there is going to be “truth” it needs to be all the way, not just a little bit here and a little
bit there to protect an adult including myself. The only innocent here is the innocence of the child for
whom this book is dedicated. The innocent need to be heard. The innocent need to be named as we all
were “the child” and I cannot let it go unsaid and silenced in the name of political, religious and cultural
rituals as I write for all of us banging on the doors to let us out of the insane institution that put us there,
the family honor, the family greed, the family jealousy, the family guilt, shame and fear. The house where
the crime scene was roped off by yellow tape, with the message No Admittance. The house where some
prisoners of war survived and some did not. The house where the concentration camp, too, existed where
some survived and some did not as our number was branded into our soul as if we were cattle and some
sort of commodity waiting to be used, killed and/or sold.
The Rite of Passage not the rite of “ritual cult” within politics, religion, race, greed, jealousy
and fear or the owning of land, no matter what state, country or continent, that is not ours or theirs to begin
with as it all belongs to Mother Earth her very own Self [in which] two legged animals insist on destroying
in the name of being human resulting in sexual, physical, mental, verbal, emotional and last, but first
spiritual abuse, killing the innocence of the child. This is My Story, how it all began, how it ended and
The Healing Process in between. If anything has gone unsaid, it is because I have yet to evolve to that
level of enlightenment on My Journey. It is not my intent to judge or blame anyone. It is my intent to
Share what I can Give, to Live, to Grow, to See, to Know, and TO BE all that God, as I know Him, intended
me To Be.
It is my intent to share “my experience” as I embarked on The Journey Into The Self not
knowing, at the time, what I was asking as I entered my home in Hauppauge, NY after a return visit to ND,
November 13, 1986 at 9:30 PM, stood in my den, folded my hands in prayer position, looking upward and
hearing myself say: “Let Thy will be done not mine, as I can no longer live this way.”
