(no subject)
Such a quiet day. I get on that train and life goes away. I put my iPod on, the earphones are in my ears and suddenly there is no more reality.
Ok, it might not be that serious, but it is quite literally as though most of life has stopped for me. I get lost in my music and in my thoughts and the rest of the world could quite literally go anywhere or do anything and I don't think I'd notice.
I feel the songs. I feel their lyrics and the meaning they have for me. I feel very deep in that time. I sort of retreat somewhere inside myself and feel all those things that you normally wouldn't, or you'd normally ignore for whatever reason. I feel in touch with all my inner stuff (yes, I know, great wordage [yes, I just wrote 'wordage' - it's my word and I like it, so leave me alone] there) which is really quite incredible.
And all because I'm alone, sitting on a train, listening to music. Funny how things work like that, really.
