Journal Prose Chronicles: I'm Not Moving
(Press play on 'The Buffalo Stance' by Neneh Cherry here____.)

Entries from my journal are only shared with my closest of friends, so beginning this series was not a decision taken lightly. Concentrations of my anguish, toil, love, ecstasy, and more exist between these pages.
Why share them now, you ask?
It is because as Etienne de Grellet stated in one of my favorite quotes:
“I shall pass this way but once; any good that I can do or any kindness I can show to any human being; let me do it now. Let me not defer or neglect it, for I shall not pass this way again.”

Knowing that the sun is shining even though I can only see grey cloudy skies…this is a fact.
Life Lesson Takeaway: Resolution can be present even when you cannot see it. Natural laws. Universal laws older than time. Gravity don't need anybody's belief to exist.
Peace in the middle of the storm is still peace. It's about keeping guard over your mindset and giving negativity the boot.
You know what you know.
Revel in everything your sensory receptors are picking up peri-momentous change. You will have great reference points.
Anticipation that can border impatience.
The time travel to the near future where you can already experience what you've dreamed.
Relaxation exhalations that are next-levels depth and release. Feeling the chi-rise and the cells in your body vibrating higher and higher. Euphoria and tingling to go with it. Visions with eyes open. Smiles that come from nowhere. The thoughts that give you smiles. The spaces in places (literal and figurative) that give you thoughts. Those thoughts. The juicy ones.
Let every “yeah" and "yay” occupy those moments. It's a free catalyst. Add it to the mix.

"Peace in the middle of the storm is still peace." At the risk of sounding dumb, may I know what you meant by that?
