Breakfast with Squeaks

It’s been quite sometime since I’ve caught up with Squeaks, she’s a refreshing change and will give out her honest opinion when asked for it.  She lets me talk about anything and everything and will give constructive feedback which allow me to gain wisdom from it.  An example is of my endless chase of finding my Neo (as Al and Shazzy class it), she told me that I should stop looking so hard and just let go.  It’s like sleep, when you force yourself to sleep, you never get anywhere, but when you let go and just naturally fall asleep, you’ve accomplished what you wanted to do.

The best thing I got to do was just spontaneously have breakfast with her, otherwise I would’ve just stayed at home and been loathing at how boring my weekend is going to be.  She let me get all the things that I had stored in me,  off my chest and just in a way was a good listener, something I very much value in a friend.  After having vented out everything that I had in me, she then proceeded with this:

“Close your eyes and tell me what is it that you want”
*Closes eyes*
“Hmm Ayers Rock?”
“Is that what you really want?”
“Sorta, but I see a whole lot of images”
“Then chase those images and do what you want, not what other people want”

Probably the best advice in a long time and it’s certainly time I did do what I want, that is of course, after I finished my breakfast which was getting cold.
