Ever had.....


..... one of those moments after a bath? A good bath?

You exit the bathroom feeling cool.... refreshed... somehow cleansed mentally

Your mind is clear.... blank... and yet strangely content.... you might even be humming to yourself

You enter the bedroom to get dressed and everything feels new.... brand new.... the grubbiest home tshirt worn happily

As you don your clothing, the skin feels smooth.... you feel clean.... oh so clean.....

As you come out into of the bedroom, you wonder what the next 24 hours will bring you... perhaps joy.... perhaps sorrow.... perhaps happiness.... perhaps... anything. But you're ready for whatever the world will bring you.

Yes. It's been one of those moments for me. Strange how some baths are better than others. It's like a moment in perfect balance.

But I'm not going to question why. I'm just going to enjoy it.

Fiona to quote the great actor Sir John Gielgud, " Bathing is a lonely business ",but it can be so enjoyable. :)

Really, Paul? A lonely business? I enjoy my baths usually. I enjoy the privateness of it all :)
