Who knew? 🙂
Once in a while, there is a tiny sound. Like a dime being dropped on a carpeted floor. A bird chirp. A hamster cough. And it will reverberate and then echo and return, so it’s a little bit louder. And then travel away & come back again. Louder, stronger. And keeps repeating until you feel like you are crouched on the floor, clutching your head, screaming & still can’t hear yourself. Everything is drowned out except that note. That ping. That Resonance. How do you keep from drowning in it? Absorbing it? Owning it? How do you push it away when it’s so much a part of you? “Let the wave pass thru. Only you will remain.” But how to do that when you are in the ocean without a surf board and it’s a 20 foot wave crashing over you?
My solution? I went to sleep. Tomorrow is always another day. A new start. Perspective.
*mental note*- go to sleep before midnight.
