The World's Youngest Card Slave

Our minds are really strange and wonderful things....

After so many POV workshops, I now know tat not wat I always think or say or do is wat I really want... and that is because our conscious mind is only 4% of the equation, the rest of the 96% which is the sub concious and unconcious mind is usually VERY well hidden ;)

So leh, sometimes in order to draw it out, we can use a variety of things like some simple transference exercises... or a simple method like drawing cards.

Because of this though, me and ah yee have been using our Love Decks and Conspiracy Decks to do some readings... so whenever we meet something that we are stuck in, we will draw cards to get inspiration about the way out...

And because it is fun, we always excitedly say, "Chou ka chou ka!" And in the end, Ace picked this up.

Nowadays, whenever he sees cards or sees those bags that we put the cards in with drawstrings, he goes, "chou ka!"

And once he sees the cards, he wants to pick them as well.

He has very good attitude.. many pple I know (eg, me) get upset when they get lousy cards.. or will repick their cards till they get the answer that they want... Ace doesnt do any of that.. he merely just says, "YEAH!" and moves on bravely to face the issue.

And the strange thing is that even if you do not believe in the unconcious mind... the world works in strange ways because somehow, Ace will always pick the same few cards out of the deck of 84 cards (which does not have any repeated designs). Usually, they are related to things like feeling unwanted, fear of inadequacy... very familiar cards as I get that alot as well :)

Even stranger, he will say out a name (eg, Daddy, Yeye, Ah Yee) and pick a card and the card will always VERY APTLY describe that person! I kid you not! Eg, if he says, "Papa" he always picks the independence conspiracy.. hahaa ;)

ChiChing, my STL teacher always says we rely too much on cards and laugh at us and say tat we are ka nu.. (which means card slaves)...

Anyway, because of this, I have declared him the youngest card slave in the world :)
