Traveling light...

Sometimes weightlessness is just a state of mind. Sometimes, it's more corporeal. I once had a dream where I was floating around my room writing the word “buoyant” over and over on my walls with black paint.

It’s true—the lighter I am, the better I feel. Despite occasional dark fantasies where I diminish until I float away, I have to remember that there is a happy (the key word being "happy") medium somewhere between buoyancy and disappearing altogether. And that's where I should be.

"Now, just imagine you're weightless, in the middle of the ocean, surrounded by tiny little seahorses." ~Deb (Tina Majorino), Napoleon Dynamite

  2. I'm afraid of large bodies of water. That would freak me the hell out!
