Deep Connections....

Marena was gentle with him as they dove into the depths of her birthplace in their melded meditation. Their souls communicated and she gently hummed a tune to his to keep him calm. His soul responded, telling her he was not afraid as long as she not release his hand. When he touched her, he was grounded. "please don't let go, Marena" he sang back to her. Honoring his request, she tightened her grip and intertwined their fingers....he let out a grateful sigh.

Knowing he was ready, she summoned her clan from out of the deep, comforting all-encompassing home she knew so long ago.

Instantly, they heard a low sound and felt the vibration of it. Marena whispered "It's ok, darlin.... my family is approaching" Taking  a deep soul breath, he attempted to see something in the dark water. There was nothing visible, but he could feel joy welling up inside of him and he saw the smile grow wider on Marena's beautiful face. Oh, how he loved her smile and her eyes....such peace he had come to know there. She winked at him playfully as if to say....."wait, you won't believe your eyes".

Trusting her completely and knowing she would only always honor him, he finally relaxed into this experience, and let himself really connect to the meditative journey that had embarked upon. With that thought, more deep vibrations shot through his body, and this time he was deeply stirred by them. He was curious and ready to know her past fully.

Just then, a creature of epic proportion elegantly floated up beside him undetected. How could that happen, how could something so mammoth be so graceful? And why was he not terrified? Why did he feel trepidation, but no caution? Gathering all of his courage...he gazed to the right and there he saw it...... The gorgeous and peaceful eye of the Humpback whale peering directly into his soul. His own eyes welled with tears of knowing, of feeling a connection beyond words. In this sacred moment, he let go of Marena's hand so he could gently and with great honor, reach out to and touch the whale. As they connected, she released a light tone and he laughed. It had been so long since he laughed. And no fear did he know.
