Santa Clara Meditation Relationships – Through this meditation, I was able to look back on my life.

Before meditation, I always wanted to be alone. It was very uncomfortable to share time and space with others, even with my family or friends. I pretended that I liked being with them, but actually in my mind, I wanted to go home and be by myself.
Through this meditation, I was able to look back on my life.
When I was young I was told to be good as I was the eldest of the children and not to bother grown ups without reason. Somehow it stuck with me and I chose not to meet people because I thought I didn’t know how to do well.
After throwing away my desire to be liked by everyone and my fear of bothering someone, I found that there is no reason not to try – try to talk, try to find a way to do better together. If it doesn’t work the first time around, I can try twice. Meditation gave me endless courage and strength. This meditation is very peaceful but also very powerful. Now, I am so grateful to live in the world with many different people. With meditation, it becomes joyful to learn how I can be truly together with others.
