flowers from Robyn and FamilyYou may not know this about me, but I'm a massage therapist. Yep surprising, but true. Let me clarify. I've gone to school, I own a table, but I'm not actually practicing. In fact, it wasn't until February 14th of this year that I finally gave an official massage...it had been 3 years. But I am a certified MT.
Having this kind of knowledge allows me to have certain information that civilians don't have. Or I should say gives me more experience than the next person. So when I went to get a massage this morning I kept telling myself to relax and not think about what she's doing, what would most likely be next, or what I wish she would do. Trust me once you've done it and have your own routine it's hard not to have expectations.
One of the things I love and learned about massages was the connection between the giver and receiver. You may not realize when you're getting a massage that there are certain things the MT will do at the beginning, during, and end to connect your chi or energy. Well, this MT did nothing even close and it was actually quite disturbing. Don't get me wrong any kind of massage is delightful, but knowing what I know it's hard not to notice these subtle difference that really make a massage beautiful. It was slightly disappointing, but still loved the luxury it was to me this morning.
I'm really glad I can give them and sincerly want to do them more. After giving a massage to Adam I actually missed it. When your minds in the right place and especially when you know the person the experience is awesome for both. It's hard to explain.
Speaking of giving. After being out shopping and enjoying my day kid free I came home to this.
Completely unexpected. I was overwhelmed and tears came to my eyes as I once again felt completely loved. You didn't have to, but you certainly made my day that much more special. Love you guys.
