My body remembers what my mind forgets. Reminding me of past collisions, stumbles, and falls. Scars and aches recall trauma that my mind endeavours to dismiss. Teaching us how to move through the world. Psychologist James Hillman from his book The Soul's Code: In Search of Character and Calling confirms “Recognize the call as a prime fact of human existence; (b) align life with it; (c) find the common sense to realize that accidents, including the heartache and the natural shocks the flesh is heir to, belong to the pattern of the image, are necessary to it, and help fulfill it."
