Don't be alarmed if you come into your room and I'm under your bed
I've been having lots of conversations lately about feeling sad. No specific reasons: just sadness. Last night I got a voicemail from a friend on the West Coast: "call me, I'm feeling sad." And there's this whole "If I KNEW why I was sad, I'd fix it!" sort of thing going on and I just wish I could fix everybody. Including myself. So I looked some stuff up and read that if you put bowls of water under your bed at night, your sorrow will drown as you sleep.
So I'm coming over to your house later to put a bowl of water under your bed.

That's such a sad and beautiful image.

david and i use to have this little pitcher of water by our front door, with little bowls sitting out. when we came home from work we would pour some water from the pitcher into the bowls, to release, to cleanse. not the same thing but kinda the same thing. the action of it helped.
