Lake Placid

Currently I find it is not good for me to be away from water. I'm not talking about a glass of water here, or the availability or supply of water, obviously that is not good for most people. I'm talking about large bodies of water, rivers, lakes, ponds etc. Recently I have been making much use of London's proximity to the Thames. I don't know why this is, but some days I find myself on edge for no particular reason, and a walk by the riverside, or a stroll across a bridge settles that. A couple of weeks ago I walked a friend home from the theatre, and ended up in stranded in Wapping having missed the last train. After a few false starts I found my way to Tower Bridge and ended up walking to Waterloo along the bank. It was 1am and deserted, and in the hour that it took me I passed four people and a large rat. I have not felt so much at peace for a very long time, and as I wandered along I started talking to God like a crazy person. See I'm quite a hippy Christian, for me, God is love and love is God, I talk a lot about positive and negative energies, I believe anything negative or guilt-ridden is not truly from Him but the other side. I'm sure this leaves me in danger of watering down the message, or getting side-tracked, but I'd rather sit on that side than the fundamental. There are enough people shouting at the world in judgement, I have no wish to be one of them. Love and peace man, more of it.
