I was hearing so much stupid conversation in my head! It was crazy! Like I was talking to myself in third person...weird. Anyway, by the time I told myself to shut up I was finally feeling limp.
My thoughts can be pretty crazy like this but I like to relive a past experience or imagine a future one. It's all nonsense and it does seem to take a few minutes to settle down. Do you do any body relaxation tek or do you just let it happen on it's own?

Maybe if I stay in the bathroom a little longer I can get a few minutes of meditation in.
I've actually done this. LMAO.

LOL! Uh....Yeah. I have no idea why I do this but it make my journaling 'real' if that makes sense. I feel like I am talking to a friend and I have named this person "Lucy" short for Lucidity. Sometimes I like to add something stupid like what I said about making it up to her tonight, really meaning that I hope I can just get lucid and stabilize. I know...corny.
Ok gotcha! A lot of people do this sort of thing, I'm pretty sure.

Hey, I don't know if I told you but I run also! You do become one with nature. I live in the country so I see all kinds of animals. I was a city girl so when I moved to the country and took up jogging I was scared to death. You see all kinds of animals (foxes, raccoons, etc.). I thought I moved to Animal Planet or something!
Awesome! Running has become an addiction for me. Yeah, it's that "oneness" you feel when your out there. It's a very nice feeling. The wild animals don't bother me so much as long as they don't get too close. I'm totes jelly your in the country — that's what my wife and I are striving for!

BTW... I tried a WBTB meditation laying down. I crashed out pretty fast but it spawned a DILD. After I woke from that one I tried a quick meditation and the same thing happened with a 2nd DILD. I wish it could always be this easy!
