I have a love/hate relationship with Facebook. I understand how social media works, honest, I really do, but sometimes, I feel like it is like walking through deep mud. It holds me back. My life starts to become sedentary, with too much sitting down, typing, reading, staring a small screen. As a small child, I was told NOT to sit in front of the tv all day, it wasn't healthy, and now what do all us self-respecting, trying to spread-the-word about a healthy life do? Sit in front of a screen. How did that happen? When did social media, a virtual existence on line, take precedence over actual physical contact? All I know, is that when I sit at my laptop to update news feeds, blogs, emails, status', and so on and so on, I feel less satisfied than when I am actually out-in-the-field DOING what I am trained to do. What I ACTUALLY get self-fulfilment in doing. It is not about money. It is not about ego-boosting. It is a pure sense of joy at knowing that you are helping someone else to feel good and better about THEMSELVES. You actually start to feel that you are making a difference in the world in whatever small way that may be. I am not a hero, most probably never will be, I don't save lives on a daily basis, I don't feed the hungry, I don't give money to the poor, but what I, and other therapists CAN do, is make another person feel good in themselves. A DEEP inner feel- good. One of my clients comments last week to me, in a phone call which had initially for me been a follow-up call to confirm an appointment, turned into something that made me realise how much of a difference to a person's life massage makes. My client explained how my last treatment had "gone really deep for her this time", not in a physical and with pressure way, but "DEEP WITHIN", to her very being. It was a new experience for her and one she felt comfortable in sharing with me. I am starting to dislike the words, "client" and "customer". I don't like them. I think "friend" is more appropriate, don't you? ♥
