Meat Reiki
I am a meat popsicle. My Aunt has cancer and is considering training to become a Reiki instructor. Only it’s a lot of money. So, dear reader, should healing be charged for? I am in two minds. If it’s a way to make ends meet I suppose I wouldn’t mind. But if it’s a bored Essex housewife thinking of ways of buying more gin I’d object. Bah. Why does she do silly things like this? Faith healing is about the faith. Believe something strongly enough and you can make it so. It’s not about what you learn. Then again, the rite and rhyme of it all instills faith. If it doesn’t work then it’s because you did it wrong, so you do it again. Unlike blind faith, whereby if you do it wrong it’s because it was a silly idea to start with. Still, at least she’s got the faith there. And as I said, she feels fine, can’t really tell about the illness, I think it’s in check. I suggested she go to Glastonbury or somewhere and find out from proper people about proper healers. Hopefully she’ll do that
