A Mix

I would like to thank everyone for the words of support on yesterday's post. I feel a bit better today. Repressed emotions seem to make my own rather intense and more gets added as I feel bad about it coming out. It still has to, but I can find better ways of release.

I've been getting more comments about being tense. I think because of that and for a number of other reasons, I am going to try meditation. I got thinking about it again because I've read about it helping with memory recovery. I have mixed feelings about this though; if my mind has made me forget, isn't it best to let it? Yet, I do realize that finding peace is all about getting all the poison out. Also, I think meditation would help tremendously with stress and I really need to find relief from that. This website has a nice introduction for that as well as other things for me to try.

I've also added a music player to this blog. It has songs that make me feel better when this stuff gets to me. Some of it is inspirational and some is kind of down but relatable. Incubus and Sublime and maybe others have swearing. It's not constant but I figured I should mention it. Unfortunately, I couldn't get Brand New Day by Jessica Stone. That is such a pick-up song for me. Year of the Cat has nothing to do with issues or adversity; it is just such a beautiful song both in melody and in lyric. They just don't make them like that anymore.
