Blogtemplation: Catharsis...

Dear Readers, People who process through boxes, Generations who reflect, the Lookers back, the Viewers of the time before, those who consider past actions and choices made, wishers of change if they only knew then, and holders of deep sadness,

I speak, write, and blogtemplate to you today on a Cultural Dictionary Term (American Heritage);
CATHARSIS
: [(kuh-thahr -suhs)]  An experience of emotional release and purification, often inspired by or through art. In psychoanalysis, catharsis is the release of tension and anxiety that results from bringing repressed feelings and memories into consciousness. 
    I have seen and heard stories from friends about actions and tasks that take on catharsis because of the intense emotional attachment to processing through items and materials gained or created in the course of their life. This course of life does not have to be very long, but the emotional attachment is deep, heavy, and various levels of pain. 
    I am not immune to this experience either, and sharing it is a sort of tension release as well today. Metaphorically or literally, the opening of boxes and making decisions about what to keep, what to give away, and what to simply throw out, has been cathartic and slow lately. I mention this from friend's stories and recent experience. 
    I would like to offer at this point an opportunity to contemplate your own catharsis points in life, and consider what you learned, what you released, what you felt at the end, where you hope to go or be emotionally after you heal from the experience? 
    I would be supportive of your stories and your path or testimony on catharsis and additional thoughts you would like to pose or suggest or open for discussion and debate.
    I would argue that the more painful catharsis are the ones that bring memories into consciousness by accident or by "trigger" and the sudden throws of emotional repression that unravels before you until you can bear to see straight and reclaim your emotionally stable self. 
    Interestingly enough the healing process can be equally rewarding either way when catharsis is planned or unplanned as distance and time from the event increase.
    If now is the time for cathartic events, please share, if you are beginning a catharsis and need to reach out for support or advice, if you are supporting someone through their own catharsis, if you have contemplative ideas about the positive and/or negative value of catharsis, or if you simply want to open the discussion to see where it goes, please do. I appreciate your comments, your replies, and your suggestions.
May your catharsis be healthy and bring you to a feeling of wholeness.

Dear Readers, Grievers, Mournful Supporters, Collectors, Debtors, Timely Documenters, Procrastinators, Runners, Walkers, Crowd Watchers, Family, Friends, and writers the world over...
Today is April 15th, and in the United States, what started out as the end of Tax season, as well as the beginning of a famed Marathon, has become more grief and mourning than anyone expected.
So I write to you today to give this blog as a chance to share your Grief, share your support, share your views, share your observations and experiences. I can only hope that discussion and contemplation has led you to a place of peace and comfort. I can only hope that the people you speak and write with were not affected by the direct impact of the Boston Marathon today.
Though I am sure some of you ask "What if..." and some may ask "Why?", and still others will just look for answers to overwhelming questions that push the emotional stress of the human condition.
I would like to offer that no matter what your deep though process may guide you thr0ugh, that healthy conversation and writing are great ways to express yourself and the emotional state that either death or taxes brings you.
I apologize for my cliché adage "Nothing is certain except for...death and taxes." However I felt like there was clearly two separate issues to blogtemplate today and this is the solution I brought forth!
Please comment, like, or respond to this site and share your supporting or opposing views and ideas on how our United States population is processing this day.
It was unimaginable, unthinkable, and maybe still a nightmare not complete for some today. So my heart and my thoughts and well wishes for health, safety, healing, and those in grief go out into the world and the written inter-scape for all of you to read. Write and respond so that you can express those contemplations that need to be shared today.
In all Support and Unconditional Love...

Dear Egg Gatherers, Searchers, Finders, Discovery Bound Friends, Pastel Pals, Rabbit Rallyers, and everyone who enjoys being with Family on Sunday afternoons,
I hope your Easter experience, or EGG-sperience as you may enjoy it, was memorable and fun! The season of Lent 2013 is complete and so should your transformation! Did you become the person or more like the person you want to be?
Please feel free to write, comment, or share your the positives, thethings you would change, and your personal thoughts on how you transformed over the past few weeks. I look forward to anything you want to share, discuss, or present about the process of transformation over Lent 2013. If you are still transforming or working on transformation, then I hope your journey is wonderful and benefitial! Please share that news as well and when you think your transformation will be complete!
I didn't meet the goals I set out to accomplish, however I still transformed and feel like my life is getting better in many ways. I have had some changes in heart and soul that are feeding me in much more positive ways than I had before. I'll be working on some new graphics for future posts, but I have to admit I enjoyed the Lent theme to write about the past 40 days and 40 nights. I would like your feedback about this writing theme and what you enjoyed or would like me to change. I always enjoy constructive feedback and discussion!
I'm making this one short, but there are plenty of days ahead to continue to push topics out and provide prompts and subjects to discuss, share, comment, and engage people to contemplate.
Happy Easter, Happy Celebration, Joyful Transformation Everyone!
