My partner suffers from motion sickness - not the same thing of course, and it helps him too. In a car, it's the opposite - he has to drive. If anyone else does, and he has to look out the window watching the road twist and turn, that will turn into an impossible situation to handle.
I'm sorry, Marcia. Your descriptions were so poetic, so visceral, I felt a bit of your pain and I couldn't stand it.
I'm never taking balance for granted, that's for sure.
