“December 24th 10:20AM; When My Wife Left Me…”

In Shreveport, LA I lost myself in the grief and put as much distance between us, allowing the forward movement and daily grind of survival to push myself deep into the trenches you left behind. The pain was so deep I could not see over it. I traveled a thousand miles and more in a blinded state to the self destructive nature I allowed to take over. I tried to fight pain with more pain. It consumed me, and I still struggle to find the balance I so desperately need. Despair that overflows or hollows me out with emptiness. Too huge to tackle directly or headlong or in any sort of way that holds meaning or healing.

It wasn’t until I became a sex worker…

that I learned to discern and understand not only the difference, but the dynamic between the two.  The most dangerous enemy was labeling one as good and the other bad.  Together they have both moved me farther down my spiritual path when I stopped trying to deny my own inner wants, needs and desires.  By practicing and giving selfless love, the less lust consumed me and the more I learned to recognize it as a form of communication.  It keeps me centered.  It reminds me that the sensual can never be ignored in favor of spirituality because it is a delicate balance act TOGETHER that fills me with the most light, passion and creative force.  With no lust, love suffers.  With no love, lust shrivels.  I often find myself leaping into one or the other with whole hearted abandon when I interact with my clients. I have no choice but to let go and allow what they need to flow through me and into them.  It isn’t enough to go through the motions.  I have to let go. I have to feel.  I have to let what is needed come with no judgement or reservation, only pure positive intention.  If I hold back, the energy is blocked.  It isn’t enough to take off my clothes, there will be no connection beyond the physical. So much missed opportunity, so much healing that could have been if I hadn’t allowed myself to label what is bad or good. My client will leave feeling sad, empty, unsatisfied and blame himself when it was my selfishness, my refusal to engage and experience lust that severed him from love completely. I have more power then I ever realized.  Carelessness can turn into cruelty so easy on this intimate level and I offer an apology to any client or lover who suffered because of my ignorance before.  I’m learning as I go, through trial and error I call my daily life and career. Thank you for the patience as I try to determine my purpose and place in this world…..as a spiritual sex worker and sensual light worker, always evolving and learning.
