God of the Sun

Beschreibung

She went out to find her place in the world, to create a life for herself where she was the master of her own destiny and no longer just a cog in the corporate machine. She longed for a life of freedom and creativity. So she packed up her life in the West and travelled to the spiritual motherland to begin her new life in paradise, to the land of the golden beaches and the Arabian Sea - Goa! She had made the contacts, got her finances in place, and was ready to go and follow her dream. The initial plan was to get to know the ropes of running a hotel with the backup of a business partner and then, further down the road, create her own business. However, what she didn't envisage was that running a business in Goa was not like running a project as she knew it in the corporate world. The plans she laid down meant nothing. Goa and its people had its own ideas and ran to its own unpredictable and erratic drum. It was full of false promises and empty words. And then there was him! At once she felt at ease and gave him her deepest secrets, but in the end, he too lived by the same drum beat.

Having put herself through high education and University, and then working her way into to a successful corporate career within IT Projects. Over the years romantic relationships has started and ended, causing emotional layers of hurt and betray to be laid. However, it wasn't all bad. Being the rebel that she was, she partied hard and laughed a lot since the Escape. Music was her one relief. She danced her way through her life.

It took nearly 20 years and most of her adult life to realize the deeply embedded subconscious trauma was a result of what had happened to her. All her decisions and relationships stemmed from those moments of betrayal and grief inflicted on her from the people close to her. Having experienced the most brutal of another betrayal, which opened and bought to the surface everything that she had buried, she realized that she had been running away from herself most of her life. She was disconnected from her own soul. But now after and intense and painful period of self-discovery she is finally at peace with herself.
