Lately I've been feeling very anxious, so instead of being on my phone I've done breathing exercises in my car. I feel refreshed and weirdly grateful whenever I do it.
Like really breathing, deep ones, looking out the window and writing and listening to Alice Coltrane breaths, feeling a calm inside like everything is bad, yes, but one breath in, one breath out, maybe that mantra that goes "I love you / thank you / I'm sorry / I forgive you" somewhere in the background, I don't know.
Everybody meet Tomato! (government name: Chloe) She is a very very shy but sweet little lady who is one year old. I already feel like we're kindred spirits because we both take a while to warm to people. She is currently sitting comfortably with the dust bunnies under my bed.
