we all know the 'its a small world' experience and, most of us have had a taste of the implicate order at times...
so I thought I would share a little story...
had lunch with my Dad a few days ago; who ; by the way, has come out of a long, heavy period of sickness and is now on a Intu-flow program to aid his recovery. Its so cool, at 70yrs old he is getting into his joint mobility...
but back to lunch. I took along my clubbell book to show him a little more of what I did at CST certification in August. He takes one look at the cover and says "clubbels...?? we had some ...years ago??" Turns out, back in the late 40's and early 50's my Dad's uncle Jock owned a pair of wooden indian clubs and he showed my Dad and his brothers a whole lot of exercises with them. Dad's uncle Jock was a judoka and exercise fanatic apparently, the one finger pushup type!
I sat there with a tear of inspiration, thinking that clubbels have been in my family for years, and I never even knew about it!! And just over 50yrs later I get to be certified and part of a new evolution that is sweeping the globe. Its incredible the connections that shape our lives.the paths that circle sublimely through our destiny's...
It seems CST and clubbells are in my genes!
but what really struck home was a deeper gratitude for all I have gained so far. An incredible system for my development and wellbeing; new colleagues to walk proud with; and; through the twisting ways that life laughs along; a deeper connection with my father as I help him reclaim his health and find a new lease on life.
Im humbled by the scope of this work; and Im inspired to be part of CST.
thank you!!
