"all this time spent awake
when we could be sleeping"
Love how counter-intuitive that is. Napping or sleeping in, pastime of the lazy, is the new necessity in a culture where almost everyone is sleep deprived. The things we cram into each day - when we could be, and SHOULD be, sleeping!
These simple words move me:
Please, tell me something
so I can fall asleep at night.
A prayer lost on the tip of my
fingers pleading for a bedtime
story with an ending
Beautiful!
*Off to bed now
I feel this the most, Carol, the consumer culture where we can only truly be if we are experiencing, all the time, infinite in an instant - I've lost a lot of sleep over it.
Thank you ever so much, Carol, your words always mean much and more to me.
