Beyond the Surface

I’m still a growing, learning Feri in training. But I’m officially an ADVANCED growing, learning Feri in training. :) Our teacher has divided the learning material up into basic, intermediate, advanced - and I believe all of the remaining classmates made it to advanced. So last week, we opened up the advanced material and did the first exercise.

WHEW! Thank gods he pounded the correspondences into our collective heads. :) Yes, it was tedious. Yes, it got boring and overwhelming sometimes but when everything clicked so easily together during the exercise this week, it made it so obvious WHY we did things the way we did them. It all came with an ease that only could have been borne of repetition.

I really enjoyed the exercise. It feels like we are getting into the meat of things now. I’m excited about what is ahead in this masochistic sort of way. Yeah.. I know it will be painful and I know it will be hard.. but sometimes pain is good - when you know it is going to yield something productive. I have high hopes for what this level of introspection will do for me.
