My haunted thoughts come at 3 AM, or 1 AM or 2 AM if I dare to drink coffee after 6 AM or eat dark chocolate late in the day.
My worst thoughts come during the day if I have not had a chance to SWIM or scribble them away in my spittoon notebook. This is probably why I am addicted to swimming laps. It's my hydro-psychotherapy.
Keeping a rambling head-noise notebook helps too. Walking makes me smile after a short few blocks. My chemistry is transformed by motion yet I require contemplative stillness to read and write and paint.
We are complicated creatures.
I love teaching adults how to breathe correctly while swimming. Perhaps they too will find their ticket to ZEN land.
Perhaps befriending the "noise" is part of finding peace.
Last night I slept so well I didn't know my name or what day it was when I woke up.
