The Last Shaman On Gaia: James Freeman - I Just Want To Feel Alive Again

The Last Shaman on Gaia: James Freeman - “I just want to feel alive again”

Sometimes you just need someone to hug you and kiss you after a long tiring day taking your hand in their's and softly caressing them with their thumb assuring you with sweet yet calm words, telling you that "you did great today".Just a certain someone who can take care of you and hug you off to sleep.

i prefer deep talks. i want to know what's in your mind, what makes you happy, your fears, your dreams. i crave for connections that allow me to know the real you

“I did what my parents wanted me to do, and at 22, I was dead”

“I had two thoughts to end it and all I could think was, thank god there’s guns at Walmart, and I can have the other option of putting my head on railroad tracks”

“I feel it’s going to take something miraculous to heal me. I’m not looking for God.”

-James Freeman

[The Last Shaman on Gaia]

Review: The people inflicting the most pain, are the ones living with the most pains internally about themselves, something they feel they can’t “escape” rather than embrace. These are the people who need the most compassion and the most love.

Shamanism is a way to keep hope alive for those who feel they can’t find the answers to pursuit of happiness. In reality, we are the ones that choose our path to that every single day, so what are we going to choose? To die or to embrace healing ourselves spiritually and mentally? Why waste a life when there’s option to recover. Thank you James Freeman for your story.
