texting god?
yeah, so, i've been sending god text messages.  it's really interesting actually.  i'm a very physical, literal person.  i remember things better when i write them down, i understand things better when i SEE them done, and i FEEL more connected something when i take some action in relation to it.  i was talking to a sort of "mentor" the other day and she, being one who does this sort of thing, suggested that i pray about letting go of this particular person/situation and about detaching.  i got off of the phone and sat and thought that i don't really like to "pray" in the traditional sense.  my "prayers" are usually offered through some action....ritual, burning something, etc.  i can't just sit, close my eyes, and think a prayer.  it doesn't work for me and doesn't feel like i did anything...not to mention my mind usually wanders off in the middle of that "thinking prayer."  i was holding my cell phone because i had just gotten off the call and thought "huh.  maybe i'll text god."  it was just silly, and i smiled, but then i thought "huh! maybe i'll text god!"  so, i did.  i just addressed the text to "god" and wrote what my prayer would be had i been praying traditionally.  i ended it with "thanks, donna" and hit "send."  and it sent.  and i FELT like i had "prayed."  for the rest of the day i was able to let go and detach from the person/situation i needed to let go off and detach from.  i've been texting "god" everyday since.  i'm not sure where it goes.  i don't really care.  it's off in the universe and no matter what i "pray" it seems to work!  i try not to think too much about where it's going, it doesn't matter...the ACTION is what makes it work for me.  i haven't gotten a reply, though...which i'm kind of grateful for.  ;)
