despite how we feel, sometimes we make the extra effort and are rewarded. the change of environment gets our mind off our misery

I often feel like I'm talking into the void ... x

The void takes some thinking about. I feel that but also journal and write for myself. Maybe I write to the void. Maybe that is my doing.

Your posts are slices of chocolate cake. Some are double chocolate. This one is an extra large slice of fully loaded triple decker truffle!!!!

So rich in description I was in your pocket from start to finish. Love LoVe LOVE the finish in: "I began the morning with a sauna which I usually save for the evenings — and lately — for not at all." (and lately, FOR NOT AT ALL).

But my favorite line of too many to quote has to be: "On the massage table, G____ worked on my back, her fingers pressed into nubs that felt like hard plastic models of places I’ve been at every juncture. The spot I’d gone in for was the least of it — the only place left with feeling."

"....like hard plastic models of places I've been...." YESSSSS, The Body Keeps the Score!!!
