It Was Brilliant!
Aug. 24th, 2004 02:16 pmThe concert was everything I could have wished it to be, and more. It was amazing. I went into it knowing that I would love it because, hey, it was Sarah MacLachlan and my love for her work can be used as a definition of 'devoted fan', but, not having seen her in concert before, there was no way I could have been prepared for the way the music owned me. I sat there, enthralled, tears running down my cheeks at one moment and screaming my throat out at another. The things she did with songs I thought I already knew, the sheer emotional power of her voice, I'm ... I have no words. It was just.that.good. and I'm so overjoyed that I went.
And is it weird that I totally wanted to sleep in the concert t-shirt I bought, just so I could hold on to that euphoria for a little while longer? Naaah, I didn't think so;-).
And, cause I can
This is rather apropos. For example: an experience I had last night after I got home. Somehow, The Mum and I started talking about that night I spent with The Big Lug and his friends (probably because she can never let anything die. Oy) which got me thinking about why it was such an uncomfortable experience. I probably laid in bed for half an hour disecting the whole thing, convinced I must just be an utter bitch to everyone I meet, when I realized that the problem was that I speak a completely different social language then what they speak and while I can understand them well enough, I just can't speak the same language (ie, tell the same jokes, etc.) at the drop of a hat. After coming to this understanding I was able to fall asleep. Huh.

The Hermit often suggests a need for time alone - a period of reflection when distractions are limited. In times of action and high energy, he stands for the still center that must be created for balance. He can also indicate that withdrawal or retreat is advised for the moment. In addition, the Hermit can represent seeking of all kinds, especially for deeper understanding or the truth of a situation. "Seek, and ye shall find," we have been told, and so the Hermit stands for guidance as well. We can receive help from wise teachers, and, in turn, help others as we progress.
