Day 141
For anyone interested, I thought of another couple of analogies that describe the way I tend to feel while running Maverick.
1) I don't know if there are any Marvel comics fans, but some of you might have some exposure to the character "Vision". Yes, he appeared in the MCU. But what I recall about him in the comics is his ability to change his molecular density. He could lower his density to that of a gaseous cloud or he could increase it to the point that he was as hard as a diamond. He could even combine the two so that he couldn't be physically harmed all the while destroying an attacker. About a month ago, I noted feeling like Vision. I could attack, defend, or just let it go right through (or around) me. Regardless of how I chose to act, I was unscathed.
2) There's a scene at the end of the movie "Queen of the Damned" where Lestat and his love interest ware walking in slow motion as everything around them speeds by. I haven't found the scene online, so I'm speaking from memory here. If I recall correctly, they appear intent in their walk as the world passes by (the scene represents their immortality and the passing of time). This is similar to what I described as giving my attention to something versus everything else, which is nothing more than background noise.
