Point of origin

Kernels of tension and uneasiness sputter uncomfortably in the pit of my stomach. Shifting and frothing, they explode into a popcorn of anxiety. Despite an overriding sense of calm and knowing, a mental battle ensues until they grab hold, burning into my tender peace.

If I close my eyes against these feelings, a deep breath is drawn and once again I know. Knowing without knowing. Interesting. The temptation to sit back and relax is overwhelming, but entirely against my nature. I'd much rather hold a stamped ticket firmly in hand.

Turning blind corners isn't as exciting as some might think.
