Sometimes, even though I have nothing to say, I just need to write

To write is to give voice to the permanent unrest lurking beneath the surface
And to let it all out brings peace
Momentary, fleeting peace
But for those moments my mind is quiet
My heart stops pounding out the rhythm of its discontent
My gut stops churning out reminders of all the times I ignored it, although I knew better..
And I *breathe
- not just because I have to but because I want to..
Because getting to know yourself, who you are under all those suffocating layers of coulds and shoulds and woulds, is one of the most important and satisfying journeys of all..
