Toxic Elephant

Don't bury it in your back yard!

Cocooning

I feel a great need to shut out the world beyond my home. Curtains must now be closed in the evening, whereas before I wanted them open, even while sleeping. Lights and heating must be on.

I've decided to limit the intake of news to once per day. I get a newspaper. Reading that should be enough. Anxiously waiting for more news all throughout the day will do me no good: Events will not unfold faster, reasons and explanations will not be found earlier, and I will end up feeling more frustrated, angry and sad.

Luckily tuesday night brought Gillmore Girls, Sex and the City, and the OC, all in a row, so I could begin to forget that I live in a country where people are murdered for speaking their mind.

I will now make a nice bowl of decaf latte.
