At large public events I always have noise dampeners in. #
What is it about us that we need an excess to feel alive?
Why does celebration have to
overwhelm the senses
drown out any thought
to be successful? #
I want the quiet
I want to feel my body
I want to dance - not to be carried away by the music, but to float on it #
yell at the people around me
sweat on them
clutch at clammy hands
but still know that I am okay
I am here
I am here #
