Let's explore the mind-numbing bliss of a couple of glasses of wine. It doesn't take more than a couple of glasses, at least not for me......thank goodness! Night's like tonight when I'm feeling so incredibly stressed that I want to crawl out of my skin and disappear, I sip on the golden nectar and I feel warm, relaxed, and I stop turning the thing over and over in my mind so am able to concentrate on something else, think about something else, get through the night.
Of course it wouldn't be a good thing to need this every night, and I don't. But it's so very helpful on the nights that I do. The sweet-tart taste of pear, oak, apricot, butter, sliding over my tongue and warming me all over. What more can you ask? I guess what you could ask for would to not be stressed and feel the need to unwind.......but it is what it is.....so that being said, I think I'll take my glass of Chardonnay downstairs and take a hot bubble bath while I sip the bliss and forget.
You need to start new things. I know. I did. I was where you are once upon a time. Then I started scuba diving and underwater you can only hear your breath that says you are alive. Go rock climbing and feel the rock and the pull of gravity to make you live in the moment. Stand in the door of an aircraft at 4000 metres ready to jump and know your life exists only in the now. Run hard and long and listen to your pounding heart. Your mind will stop going around and around and soon your trees will grow.
