What caused me to consider Triking?
Initially? It was a "spiritual thing..." I can say that here. -wink.
Yea-over the holidays I was at a sort of "spiritual crisis." I was trapped in a world which clearly had no real "use or purpose for me," and in which I felt no sense of positive in. I was at a "bottle neck" of sorts. It was clear and I knew it.
I asked The Father for some help. Once again being willing to turn everything I had, everything I owned, over to The Father... For certainly I needed help beyond which was available to me.
The ANSWER? As generally happens? -wink.
Did not happen "over night," or even in the next few days. Hhhhhh!
Nor was "it," one that I had even really considered seriously even "possible."
Yet IT, of course WAS POSSIBLE, with The Fathers help. -And some deeply spiritual WILLINGNESS on my part. As well as I feel a bit of an open mind.
TRIKING is an ENTIRELY NEW & DIFFERENT WORLD, from which I come from.
To even consider managing this CHANGE? I had to be willing to give up almost everything, certainly ANYTHING, to get here.
That takes Deep Personal Inventory or what some might call, Deep Personal Self Evaluation.
Finding out what is "on the shelf" and then? Offering it to a Power Greater Than Ones Self.
A simple concept... Terrifically DIFFICULT for most people to do. Impossible one might say, and is I feel evidenced on a daily basis by the majority of the human race. -shrug.
I felt this way before my injury, and continue to feel this way today.
TRIKING if not being a result of the above process, can I feel? Help it along.
One MUST face facts on the road. One must evaluate things on the road. One has TIME to do this on the road at times. Some times? One has little else to do but that depending upon where one is riding.
Triking offers rewards and pain, and can run one through a gamut of emotions, while also providing one with continued solutions in one form or another for one item or another.
It is AVAILABLE to almost anyone, even PARAPLEGICS. [eventually I am sure quadriplegics will also join us]
And? For myself and others? It has provided a joiner, between the spiritual and the physical...
That is a pretty kool thing I think...
All because, I found myself in a position that I had to face some facts a bit more brutally than I have in the past for a while... -wink...
Miles of Smiles to ya...
Sincerely,
Thomas...
