WHY EGYPT
By Kerrie Guy
What led me to Egypt is like asking what leads a horse to water!
One day I simply knew after having lived life for far too many years with an unquenched thirst for life that Egypt was where my Life Thirst would finally be quenched.
Egypt must have known this too for Egypt led me to her. Before I set foot in her sacred presence I had neither a passion nor a desire to even visit her shores.
My life before Egypt on the surface appeared to be successful yet my spirit was totally unfulfilled. There was a sudden turning point in my life I when I said to Life, ‘Obviously as I have been following the accepted human conditioned rules of logic and as yet have not been led to where I feel I belong that it’s time for a change. So from this point on I surrender my human control and logic and will do my very best will allow you and spirit to lead me to my rightful life destination in the very same way you lead a river to the sea. I believe in this I will find my life purpose and finally feel fulfilled.’
This conversation with Life /God was the turning point that led me to hearing the voice of Egypt beckoning me home to the seat of my soul. The complete story of my being led to Egypt is far too long and intricate to summarize into a few words and the sequence of events that led to me living in Egypt played out like piecing together a no clues supplied 10,000 piece jigsaw puzzle. Very often as I was piecing together my Egypt Life puzzle I was positive that pieces; especially the vital corner or important edge pieces were missing from my puzzle and that they would be impossible to ever find. I frequently considered that maybe I’d been wrong in the way I had interpreting what I believed to be life guidance! But finally I found the essential missing boundary pieces and now my Life in Egypt is almost fully clear and complete.
Ten and a half years ago I fully accepted that Egypt were I should be. After making this huge personal discovery I simply waited for life to show me how I was to make my way home to Egypt.
It was as if by a miracle that my doorway home opened up. In the year 2000 the computer world and internet use were very foreign to me, and so surfing the net was not something I did because I barely knew what the term meant. At that time I thought the only surfing one could ever do was in the sea! Luckily I’ve learned a lot since then. However even in my ignorance a voice within guide me to ‘Ask Jeeves’. What was I to ask Jeeves? I didn’t know! I needed inspiration so I typed in the word ‘Inspiration’ which almost instantaneously led me to my doorway home.
I saw an area of work with children that could possibly use volunteer assistance and so I immediately emailed them offering my services. I recall telling my daughter as I was typing my original email that I had found my way back to Egypt. I knew it; I just knew it; and I was right! I also recall my inner voice telling me the whole time I was in the process of preparation for moving to Egypt that the volunteer work I was to do was simply a doorway into life in Egypt and absolutely no more. I doubted that voice, but after I finally arrived in Cairo it took only six weeks to be proved correct!
Originally I had planned on living in Egypt for just one year. I naively felt that in this brief time Egypt would gift me with all I needed to get on my life in a new more meaningful fulfilled way. What a joke that was!
Now almost 10 years later I have absolutely no idea when Egypt and I will finish our loving service to each other. All I can say for now is that I am DEEPLY in Love with Egypt for she has shown me Love in its Pure Essence in Countless Ways. It is very hard to ever consider that a time will come when I can walk away from such unconditional supportive love.
Egypt has gifted me love in its limitless facets and its most powerful expressions of these facets have been offered to me through Tough Love. The underlying prayer I prayed as I made my sojourn here was let me feel what it is like to live life as an average Egyptian citizen. This prayer was answered for more than two years when I lived on a very limited budget and in very humble surrounds; and during that time I was truly blessed. I learned so very much because of this answered prayer. Assumptions, judgments and criticisms all went out the door as I experienced living life walking in another man’s shoes!
Egypt has both challenged and inspired me in various ways and she continues to do so, and she endlessly encourages and sustains me in a way in which I’d never before known until I made her my home.
The Egypt I see, feel and know is not the Egypt that most tours books or TV documentaries or media stories show. I connect to Egypt heart to heart and in this I am truly blessed. And I love showing the Egypt I have come to know and love to all those who similarly come here with no expectations but rather with an open heart mind and soul knowing that in some very special way that their souls will be fully connected to the soul and spirit of Egypt and that Egypt will lead them home to the sanctuary of the Inner Self.

~OH SWEET EGYPT~
Oh sweet Egypt land of my heart
You inspired my flow of inspiration to fully start
Oh sweet Egypt land of my heart
How do I thank you for birthing this flow to start
Oh sweet Egypt land of my heart
Before you I Osiris-like lived in soul fragmented despair
Oh sweet Egypt land of my heart
With your Isis-like compassion my soul to whole did you repair
Oh sweet Egypt land of my heart
How can I ever to you my full gratitude impart....
