As my closet friends know, about 4 1/2 years ago I joined the world of second life. Today I joined a group in-world for journaling. We’re giving one word and a few minutes to write a brief thought on it then we share with the group. Today’s word prompts were Portal and Breath- These are my entries.
My Portal Dream –
It was a dream, right, just a dream? The other morning, in my sleeping dreams I teleported into my kitchen. Landing on the stove, I had sunk into it. Then I lay down as the oven door opened, my legs inside with the coils burning hot. I could only watch as they baked. My skin, muscles, and clean through the bone cooked and melted away. As I was consumed by the heat, I woke. It was just a dream, right?
One Single Breath
Just breathe, that’ the one line I remember from Ever After, Just Breathe. So simple, breath, something we don’t think about. And yet so powerful, mentally. When we do think, when we close our eyes and take that one deliberate breath, somehow it brings us back to center allowing us to focus. A breath, one single, slow, deliberate breath is all it takes.
