Ep. 6: Mind In Pieces

What this episode covers

The sixth episode of my podcast: Truth Serum. Do you have the courage to take a dose of truth serum with me? I'm back again, cleansed by the fall-time rain and re-inspired to share my inner world with you. I took a break and retreated into the privacy of my own mind. My world was becoming quite cluttered and my thoughts felt like they were accelerating out of control. I had all sorts of imaginative ideas I wanted to share. However, they were coming and going so fast, and there were so many ideas fighting for my attention that I became overwhelmed. I decided to close myself off and look inwards. I struggled with my own mind. I also began feeling loneliness too, especially since I had sort of locked myself indoors. Not physically though. I would still spend most of my days outside, oftentimes with friends, and sometimes against lockdown guidelines. But mentally, I was voluntarily quarantining myself. Also, the saga of troubleshooting continues. When the inspiration struck, I wanted to go out and film in the rain so badly. Unfortunately, I lost my tripod and microphone. I'm a bit of a stubborn guy so I spent way too long looking for them and got way too frustrated. After taking a break, I remembered exactly where they were. A friend had borrowed them. Funny how a step back can change so much. I drove over, picked them up and went out to film by the water right before sunset. I lost a decent chunk of footage again just as my words were really starting to flow out. It's ok, since that challenged me to re-think and re-state what I already knew. Although I am getting a bit annoyed at this point. I might bite the bullet and just buy a new phone. Old habits die hard with me, especially this incredible phone. We've been through close to 4 years together now. ♡
