Sometimes I feel like the night owns me more than the day. During the early part of the morning I feel like I’m walking up a steep hill and then around mid day my energy levels level out and I’m fine, but miraculously, around 11 PM to the early hours of the morning I am hit with a wave of energy. Is this energy that bursts inside me at early hours of the morning a curse or a gift? On my physical body and sleep schedule it is defiantly a hindrance, however, on aspects of out-of-box thinking and creativity, the night has been the yellow brick road to a lot my creativity and self-discoveries.
At times I wish that the day didn’t end at 24 hours and that it was extended another 10 hours. Maybe then I’d take advantage of a fraction of that additional time rest my body (probably not; I have a hard time letting my body rest because there is so much that I could be doing and accomplishing - not to mention that my mind is very active and never slows down).
When the yellow brick road lays before you… Skip down the sucker. When the darkness of night convinces you to shut your eyes… Find the yellow brick road with your eyes closed and… Skip down the sucker. When you are not dreaming you should always be dreaming.
Ha. You just described me exactly when I'm having my bouts of insomnia.
