I found myself talking freely (in my head) for much longer than I had intended to, and to my amazement, found myself saying 'I love you' to the universe. It just kind of came out. I was left with a brief sense of being part of the world in a way that I haven't felt, well - ever. If you knew me you would not bet on this ever happening.
Hi Max,
That's a special moment for you. Thanks for sharing it.
I understand what you meant about feeling ridiculous and phoney, I did too. But when relief, peace and serenity comes admist the turmoil, it doesn't matter anymore.
Well done on getting to Day 5 - Sleep will become easier in the days to come.
