Discomfort
It’s always hard to move towards discomfort, but when I am immersed in it, I am surprised to find the spot, the pain, the suffering, to be less intimidating than what I originally believed it to be. I’m learning that my mind tends to overreact and overexaggerate my discomfort. By actually investigating my discomfort, I am able to calm myself down, for it is never as scary or as bad as my mind makes it to be.

So yesterday I’m putting on a set fresh of strings an hour before a gig. Brand new strings, full of bright tone and vibrating with clarity make an acoustic guitar come alive with magic. I’ve changed hundreds of sets in my time. As I was tightening the G string, the peg which secures it in the bridge hole popped out. Normally this is no big deal but this time the peg vanished into thin air. I couldn’t find it anywhere. I strapped on my miner’s head light and bent down to look under the furnature, I moved cushions, repeated my search methodically with a quadrants, down on my hands and knees feeling the carpet, all to no avail. By this time it was getting late so I went upstairs and borrowed a peg from another guitar and quickly finished changing strings. The gig went really well, my guitar sounded fantastic. When I got home I unpacked and put everything away, still wondering where the illusive peg was hiding. As I took my guitar out of the case and was placing it in the corner I heard something move inside. I looked in the sound hole, flipped it upside down, shaking it a few times and the peg magically dropped out. Sometimes, when we have lost something in our lives all we need to do is look inside ourselves to find it...

I suffer from RLS and enjoyed this immensely. Really felt it helped me not focus on the discomfort by focusing on the sensation (probably doesn’t make a whole lot of sense). Am looking forward to trying this the next time I get a tattoo, as I think it could help.
