My first experience with meditation brought me powerful emotions. I have been seeing a life cycle counselor for the past month or so. The last appointment that I attended, she did a visualization meditation method to me.
I closed my eyes, relaxed every muscle in my body and listened to her voice. She told me to picture myself in a place where I can escape to. An image appeared in my mind that I was wearing a white dress, laying in a meadow with flowers and trees surrounding me. I was laying in the middle of the field with my arms expanded, grasping onto the surrounding flowers.
Looking up I noticed that my peaceful escape was appearing to be in a vortex dome. I saw my parents in the sky, arguing yet again. I closed my eyes to wipe their voices out of my head and focused on the birds chirping a song in the background.
My counselor then asked to picture one person to visit me. I turned my head into the distance and saw a figure appear over the hill in the distance. As the figure reached a distance where I can point out their identity. There, standing in front of me was Sharon, my old neighbor who passed away 8 years ago from lung cancer. She wasn't only considered my neighbor she was my best friend, and my hero. She approached me slowly and I couldn't believe my eyes. She used to be very fond of gardening. Every memory I had with her we were surrounded by flowers. There standing before me, Sharon pulled a rose out of her pocket, extended the rose in my direction and placed it my hand and said "trust what you know." As soon as I tried to understand her statement her figure disappeared.
I woke up from my vision and tears ran down my face. That day I felt confusion and had curiosity of finding the meaning behind her insight. All I intended on doing that day was going back to my vision because it felt like my only escape.
