In December 2013, Tomas Garza received a gift. He regained in a hospital bed after being T-boned by someone driving at 60 miles per hour. His hip bone was completely shattered. For years he ran away from toxicity, his parents' fights, his mother's alcoholism.

Turning 15 and "officially" getting his drivers' license gave him even more perimeter to be away from the house.

Tomas made sure he could get out for good when he aced his academics and left for college and never having to come his childhood "home' when it got dark. He graduated from Law school, which never felt his calling. It was just like Tomas as a kid walking around Albuquerque and not having any particular career aspirations. As a family and child custody mediator, he was growing tired and knew there was something more to this life.

Tomas wrestled with quitting and looking for something that lights him up, or staying and being rewarded with steady clients and a steady income.

That's when Tomas received his gift in the form of a horrific accident, it gave him time to think. Tomas left his unfulfilling job and started to explore again. And the "remembering" events he had as a child started to make sense. 

And as the universe would have it, his relearning to walk even though he walked every day before mirrored the return of "remembering" moments as a child.

"One foot at a time, shift your weight, hold onto the sidebars, pick your foot up. We got you."

Tomas thought about disembodied visitors that used to be with him in a particular room in his grandparents' house. 

"Ok lift your other foot...Great work Tomas"

John recalled an encounter with lights that had a consciousness. 

"Congratulations John. You back at 100%"

And in the remembering, John created his own house, not the toxic one he grew up in.

John took up podcasting about a year ago and revels in his guests having aha moments. He is also a producer and has two podcasts, "Decide to Transform" and "Our Conscious Playground" with co-host Lisa Berry.

Welcome home Tomas. You don't have to come back when it gets dark.
