My Safe Zone: flow and rhythm of my days

My routines are my order and my guide through life. I find chaos disrupts the flow and rhythm of my days. I am often alone in my safe zone, which helps bring peace and reflection to the disorder. My safe zone is like a warm blanket with a cup of hot chocolate and my favorite movie. It can be my bedroom or my couch with no one around where my wild thoughts and the physical exhaustion that comes from fitting into society's expectations, can be released. In this place there is no fear of embarrassment from meltdowns, from bipolar episodes or from the stigma that society still puts on mental illness...  no expectations... only peace of mind.

Just a thought:
The Nightly Book of Positive Quotations  by Steve Deger
I don't need to keep picking up old burdens. Today is all I need to be concerned about. I'll have a more focused mind for tomorrow's challenges if I haven't tired myself worrying about them today.
