When my mind starts working too fast and I want to write 10 books and conduct a dozen studies on human interaction or cerebral anatomy or it just flows with thoughts of possibilities I take the time to slow down and count to 5 in as many languages as I can remember. It doesn’t matter if it’s one language or four languages. If I focus on only the words and the numbers it calms my mind. But I have to focus.

Right now I count to clear my head, to make sure that I do not get frustrated about the small things. Right now I count to calm my spirit… always too much to do. Never enough time to do it in. I need focus. I need space. I need time. I need rhythm… because when time skips a beat it makes my addictive personality go a little crazy (well crazy-er). Ha! So I count… but I don’t only count these numbers I also count my blessings. I make a list of things that I don’t need to survive but that I have anyway. I think of Grace and how there is So much of it in my life despite the fact that I am not a graceful person. And I count everything that I love and wonder what I would do without it…
and then I am at peace.
and then I am alive.
