I emerged from the utter darkness of my mother’s womb. The journey consisted of a number of feelings, one of them being fright. The fear of the unknown world as I left the warmth of this sacred safe place into the unknown. I would be living in the realm which we call, Earth. I was thwarted out into this world that was bitterly cold and consisted of strange looking beings which I later learned were called, humans. A state of panic took over. This was my first anxiety attack. My heart started to beat quickly. All of these people, the cold air, the noises, and the smells became overwhelming which led to me to a place where I felt helpless so I did the only thing that I knew would give me that release from all of the anguish. I simply let out a loud cry. It was a cry that came from the depths of my soul and it appeared that everyone was in agreement because they immediately took me back to safety. Back to the warmth of, Mommy. She provided nourishment through her breast and her soft tones which I had become accustomed to while in the sacred space of the womb. I was made to feel safe once more. So, I stopped screaming and allowed the salt water craze from my eyes to cease from flowing. In her arms I was connected to the warmth of her love on this place called Earth and realized that I was born.
