Milo Greene - 1957

i go to nature to be soothed and healed, and to have my senses put in order.

I had a beautiful moment yesterday.

I had just had a big panic attack at home about nothing in particular, and had to rush about packing an over-night bag as I was going to see a late showing of The Hobbit with my sister in London and staying with her boyfriend.
Anyway, I had only just managed to stop tears from falling down my cheeks on their own accord, when I was getting on the train.
I put in my noise-cancelling earphones and put ob my go-to calming album: Alt-J’s ‘An Awesome Wave’.
As I stepped off the train and descended the escalators, I walked through the underground crowds with the music filling my ears. I can barely describe how beautiful it was to feel like I was cut off from the hustle and the noise and to be in my own bubble.
I still felt as hectic in my mind as the crowds around me, but part of me was indescribably soothed by the detachment I felt from the world.

Listen

Moddi “7”

I have never been soothed and comforted by a man’s vocals in my whole entire life.

Listen

Moddi “Smoke”

Such a beautiful beautiful sound/voice/feel. Completely content with this man.

“...she found herself soothed beyond anything that she had believed possible. So surrounded, so caressed, she was even happy! In the joyfulness of family love everything for a short time was subdued.”

—Northanger Abbey - Jane Austen

It seems mighty fitting that Liz Lemon would be so excited for this, right?

All instrumentals tonight.
