Don - you're beautiful.

This post was great for me to read. I struggle with feeling grounded a lot. It reminds me, too, of the wise words a sister in recovery told me during my first days of detox. I was going out of my mind and practically crawling out of my skin. She said, Where are you feet? ( Huh? Feet?!? ) Ya, your feet. Where are you feet? Look at your feet! That's where you are right now."

Well, I (finally) got it and, lemme tell you, I think I walked around for months looking only at my feet! - lol But I got through those miserable days. And I still need the reminder when my head is spinning off in 8,000 different directions.

hugs -
