Did you ever notice..Synesthesia

Or, you might have synesthesia, if cooking a panful of onions sounds like rainfall.

Or

A wild wind blowing cornstalks looks and sounds like children giggling.

I'm noticing more synesthesia happening these days.

Like when I was listening to a favorite song and the words appeared in my head, scrolling along with the lyrics.

Christmas 1965

Mental Detox

About once a month, I lay down for a brief rest mid-afternoon only to fall into a deep slumber and not awaken until sometime the next morning.
Yesterday, I laid on the bed to rest my back around 4 pm and slept till 6 am this morning. There were a few bouts were upon I awoke and felt hunger but sleep won over hunger each time. I never got out of bed for 14 hours.
The deep sleeps are riddled with dreams. It feels like a mental detox as my brain is allowed to destress and play out a plethora of new information gathered throughout a most busy week. Okay, yeah, it does kinda feel like a self-induced coma that I have the ability to break if I wanted to.
I woke this morning feeling very relaxed and cleansed in some ways. My body and brain know what it takes to heal.

My Favorite Dream

..it happened again last night. I had a dream in which someone loved me...and I could feel it. Love must be the most elusive rewarding feel-good thing.
May dreams come true

Hard Candy Movie, Best Quote

"When you hurt someone, it haunts you"
I watched this little sick, twisted, profound movie last night. This quote, above all the other memorable ones, struck me the most.
I know it's true. I saw it in my dad's eyes.
There is no need for revenge against perpetrators. Abusing children kills them from the inside.
