stress and training

I have had such an incredible stress load.
Death and divorce, the big 2. The biggest issues we deal with, and I am doing them at the same time.

It is like a weight, a lingering presence.
There is a physical toll to stress. I feel numb all the time.
Doctor said it might be MS. I don't think so, just stress.

Today I found some peace.
In my 24th lap, as I was swimming, I felt peace.
I didnt feel the weight, for a brief moment.

When I got out of the pool, it returned again. While I was in the water the stress of my life was gone.
When I am on my bike, or while I am running, the stress is gone.

Why I wonder?
