Anxious bus

The anxious bus came along today, ran me over, backed up and rolled over me again and for no particular reason. Being anxious is a terrible feeling, there is a great heaviness on the chest and my thoughts are not reasonable.. Quite frankly its almost paralyzing. I went through the inventory of self help books nothing... then to ..the internet for meditations... How can you meditate when my heart is pounding?.. I love distraction so I jumped in my car and headed off to a friends. As soon as I sat down in her kitchen, a few laughs and great conversation my condition was forgotten.. I am not sure if it was misery loves company or forget your troubles.... I’ll take both and a spoon full of laughter.
