mucky, dirty, dark

I've been doing lots of brainstorming to save myself from the unknown. The mucky, dirty, dark, unknown. I tell myself: brain storm, c a l m yourself. 

I read somewhere that people don't really desire happiness, they desire peace. I think that's true.

Brainstorming as a method of calming oneself. I had never thought of that, but it makes sense. Getting the chaos out of your head and onto paper (etc) clears the way for more peaceful and — dare I say — constructive thoughts.

That's so true about peace. Peace is the space where happiness can exist.

I think "happy" and "peace" are automatic states we all have. They just are. As soon as we move away from them--because of life, fear, etc--we desire to get back to that easy, natural state of being.

PS - I love NY too. I miss it (in Minneapolis now).
