When all the running stops

We're left with silence, which is uncomfortable. This is not a place a want to live, but it is a place I need to visit every once in a while. Sit still. Get quiet. Stop everything. And listen. Heartbeat, breath, car noises on the highway, tired feet, head ache, birds, flies, wanting arises, judgement arises. It's all in the mind. Get quiet. Get closer. Stop worrying.

Sometimes...

Late nights are the only way we can access another part of ourselves.
Sometimes eating a shit ton of chocolate is actually good for us.
Sometimes we need to be a little harder on ourselves, or a little easier.
Sometimes taking a bath in the middle of the afternoon is okay.
Sometimes saying "No" is appropriate.
Sometimes I'm afraid to speak up.
Sometimes I want to scream at the top of my lungs.
Sometimes flowers, sometimes a scowl.
Always give more love.
Never take a man away from another woman.
