Regeneration

What a funny day, in a weird as well as mildly comical sense.

I am a rather quiet chap. I am considered (I hope) to be gentle, considerate and maybe slightly too diffident. The last few weeks have seen some changes in me. After 18 months of prolonged and extreme stress relief has finally come. You can read about that in my other recent postings to this blog.

Do you ever feel you are acting out a scene from some science fiction play, book or movie  Life, at the moment, seems a bit like that.

I am rediscovering things I used to know about myself all the time. Today I nearly lost my temper. Instead I 'threw it away' rather than losing it. I redirected sudden rushes of adrenaline triggered by some trivial and infinitely forgettable event in my daily life. I did not get stressed. The old fight or flight reaction set in and I chose to defend myself. I think that is a good sign.

So massive bursts of energy and a changing personality. Its a bit like David Tennet morphing into Matt Smith. I wish I was as good looking as either of those chaps.

Just to re-assure any of you who are beginning to worry. I am not a alien from Galifrey. Just a normal bloke, reacting in a normal way to circumstances thrown in my direction. Things will settle down.

But I will never be the same again.
