So when she worked her way over to my left shoulder she said, "Your shoulder has an attitude." Yeah, uh, tell me something I don't know! This is the shoulder that I injured in college (produce department injury) and which recently (January-March) prevented me from lifting heavy weight overhead, doing pull ups or push ups.
Then she said, "Your shoulder has a message for you."
Here is what my shoulder wanted to say. Apparently these are the negative attitudes my shoulder has been holding on to:
- blaming circumstance for what I am
- feeling that life has been hard on me
- pessimistic beliefs about my life
- feeling martyred and bitter
- lacking insight into myself and my workings
- having no self-esteem
- liver and gall-bladder problems
I accept the challenge to:
- take responsibility for myself and my actions
- create a positive reality for myself
- know that I am growing with every experience
- be able to help others through my own learning
- empower myself through self-responsibility

Poor reticent yet somehow talkative shoulder. How good, though, that you were able to have that conversation via the massage/energy person. (I have done this too, but we won't talk about it in front of MB.)
That is one talkative shoulder. I need an injury to give me direction.
