THERE IS MERIT IN SCREAMING INTO A PILLOW

It is clear that many people feel as though we are living in difficult days. Perhaps you are among them.

In an apparent response to that kind of mood, there was an amusing image portrayed in a popular magazine. Pictured in a department store is a shopper standing in front of an attractive display of neatly stacked pillows. The store clerk is pointing to the shelves as he says, “No. These are pillows for screaming into. You’ll find our sleeping pillows on the second floor.”

Difficult days truly do summon in us a variety of troubling emotions...And screaming into our pillows is a far better release than taking out our frustrations on those closest to us, or slamming our fist into a hard and unforgiving object.

Here's to ultimately fluffing out and releasing pent up emotions from that poor pillow...And a subsequent good night of sleep in the downy, pillowy comfort of dream land!
