Life is SO hard.<br />

Cleansing tears<br />

yesterday by reading<br />

transcripts <strong>of</strong> #7 and 8.<br />

’Everything OK’. The<br />

white room? The<br />

threadmill? What do I<br />

need to change? I need<br />

nurture to get through it.<br />

FOCUS: The white<br />

room. Care less<br />

(intensely).<br />

Life is demanding. Wish<br />

that God would carry<br />

me. Fatigue. Yesterday<br />

it was two years since<br />

cancer breakout. Hard<br />

times. Talks about fear<br />

<strong>of</strong> death.<br />

Unclarified about the<br />

situation – like being<br />

trapped in a box. The<br />

ambiguity: Sisyfos, the<br />

threadmill. I want to be<br />

held.<br />

Leave the outer<br />

world and its affiais<br />

behind you.<br />

Concentrate on<br />

breathing. Let the<br />

universal power give<br />

you the energy you<br />

need, to your whole<br />

body. Approach the<br />

white room, open<br />

your mind and let the<br />

music...<br />

Breathing.<br />

There are more than<br />

one room: the white<br />

room and the box.<br />

Universal energy /<br />

power from outside.<br />

Going through the<br />

body... ’I see myself<br />

in the box, from the<br />

outside’<br />

1.Debussy<br />

the pumping red-orange heart.<br />

1. Calm and nice. I sleep on my<br />

side, turning the back outwards. White /<br />

2.Liadov<br />

Gold. Wake up, rise. A new, unknown place. The room welcomes med.<br />

3.Holst, Venus<br />

Very new that I don’t know where, where to and how! Like a newborn.<br />

4.Grieg<br />

2. Unclear white /gold. A Cherubim. A little worn, but OK. Tornado<br />

5.Grieg<br />

(right) – The Cherubim (left). Dividing line = a white wall. The<br />

= PASTORALE tornado rushes against it, but in vain. It lurks <strong>of</strong>f, sad. An acorn opens in<br />

four flaps. Seed.<br />

3. A feeling <strong>of</strong> I-can’t-be-bothered-any-more. Horses in full speed. I just<br />

watch. Birds, very self-confident (= being). God [a celesta in the music]<br />

knocks the door. Descends to my level.<br />

4. He wants to take care <strong>of</strong> me. Hands on my shoulders, watching me<br />

deeply in my eyes: Don’t fight so hard any more! Go into it. Face it.<br />

Confront it. It will be lonely and hard.<br />

CONVERSATIONS<br />

5. He ascends. I’ll have to do the rest myself. I get cross. He has given me<br />

a new burden, a new fight! Some experiences are only for yourself. Sad.<br />

POST: He did the right thing, I can see that. He helped me, but not in the<br />

way I expected. It’s important to dwell in the non-intense states (unclear<br />

colours and moods). A new place to land. Facing God – and yourself.<br />

1. It’s peaceful, but I’m not sleeping. Autumn leaf floating gently, like the<br />

1.Elgar<br />

doll throwing itself unresistingly… being guided. Important that I keep<br />

2.Ravel<br />

my eyes open. Leaf falling down and resting on silent water.<br />

3.Bizet<br />

2. Being rocked. It is all part <strong>of</strong> the plan. A door -> a meadow<br />

with sheep,<br />

4.Mendelssohn<br />

like a postcard. I stroll around with no goal. Not locked up in my own<br />

5.Mozart<br />

world. I am in this harmonious world <strong>of</strong> images. How did I get here.<br />

6.Schmidt<br />

Can I come back? I feel sad. My heart trembles. Why must it be so<br />

7.Stravinskij<br />

difficult? (tears). Existential loneliness. Nobody can help me find the<br />

way. A feeling <strong>of</strong> chaos.<br />

45’ +<br />

3. A leaf again. Many leaves. Community.<br />

4. Maybe it was there all the time –<br />

the spruce cone? Fishes in the flood.<br />

Feel sad, because the music is so beautiful. Sheep. Wisdom – how do I<br />

get it?
