Almost sleepless night
I thought this was super amusing after a little bit of time thinking about it. Last night, my husband was mentally stressing out and I picked up on it a little bit, knowing he was thinking about the cause of his stress. As a result, I felt like I couldn't sleep and decided to pray a little bit, asking for some help and blessings for him and everyone else I could think of. In the middle of the night, I woke up to find myself and my husband a little bit awake. Looked at my cell for the time, since I had to wake up especially early for a workout and wanted to check if it was time to get up, and saw that it was 2:22am. Then, when it was finally time to get up, I took my time to rise, put on my watch, and then wnt to the bathroom and glanced at the time, 5:55am! After a few seconds, I figured I should say something, but I couldn't shout, so I whispered my hello.
I have to comment that getting back to praying is making me wonder, does it open up communications again?

Oh, my friend,
all that you see of me
is just a shell,
and the rest belongs to love.

Re: Almost sleepless night
Hallo Anne! Have you had a particular experience, or just found it to be true in your heart? For me, I have to say it's both from experience and just going with what feels right in my heart there's been a number of experiences for me regarding prayer, some big and some small, but all were important.

Hi Anne and theunim
Yes, I agree too that prayer is a communication in its own right and helps to stimulate communication in other forms as well.
Hugs,
Sandy

i view prayer as a one-way communication and meditation and yoga as two-way

Re: Almost sleepless night

Re: Almost sleepless night
Hi Anne,
Yes that sounds right ... but if you think about it..."the lines", the beginnings and ends of these "words," prayer, meditation, Yoga and a few more...creativity, inspiration and lets's say, exhileration, are quite blurred with one overlapping the other at times.
Love,
Sandy
