Stormclouds, Music and Melancholy

“When you come out of the storm, you won’t be the same person who walked in. That’s what this storm’s all about.” 
~ Haruki Murakami, Kafka on the Shore

 

The air is tinged with cold and that strange electricity that comes before a storm. I am watching from my upstairs bedroom, stuck in the city and longing for home.

The new meds I am on to treat the lyme and other bacteria are having brutal effect these past few days.  Seems I have my own storm raging inside me.

I am wracked with fever and with pain. My eyes are fogged and my brain has turned to cotton wool.

It’s hard to type. Hard to think. Hard to read.

So I am mostly lying here, watching the sky and listening to music.

And somehow, there is so much beauty here.

I am profoundly grateful for my life.

 

Hi! I'm Nicole Cody. I am a writer, psychic, metaphysical teacher and organic farmer. I love to read, cook, walk on the beach, dance in the rain and grow things. Sometimes, to entertain my cows, I dance in my gumboots. Gumboot dancing is very under-rated.

  3. Hello Nicole I thought of you as I read the local Bendigo Advertiser dated 11th July. Believe it or not the local sponsored race two at the Bendigo Greyhounds late last month in an effort to bring recognition to Lyme disease. They were thrilled that their call of awareness for Lyme disease created so much attention. Evidently there is a closed facebook group you can join by contacting info@lymedisease.org.au you never know someone somewhere may have effective treatment without the horrific side affects God Bless Georgia xx
