Goodnight friends! A post-party drop of pain and exhaustion – a kind of embarrasment at having put myself in a position that I knew would push my body’s limits. Of two minds, at once ashamed and reckless, but also stubbornly giddy, trying to grab a sharp fragment of the kind of life I want. Head echoing like a stuck gong with human noise and new experiences.

Driving home my body felt boneless and my brain a slurry, a half-pleasant half-dream state of looseness that let me easily dissociate a little from my body and drift along with the changing colours of the mottled sky, thick streaks of grey capping the hills turning ominous burgundy and violet, frothy plumes high up becoming sugary pink. Fortunately not too cold, temperatures just stretching up into double digits.

May we find a moments that fill us with gratitude for the wonders just beneath the surface of our everyday lives today!
