I can't sleep, and it's 4:40 so I'll cease trying.
Two nights ago I was laying in bed falling asleep when I suddenly felt like I didn't belong. I sat up and looked around. It didn't feel like home. I felt out of place, almost homesick. What am I missing?
I've been trying all night to go to sleep. I lay there in complete darkness but my eyes won't close. I'm extremely exhausted but my brain races from thought to thought. I force myself. I try breathing exercises. I pull the covers over my head. I flip the pillow.
Nothing.
And then a sudden calmness washes over me. I've felt this many times lately. My limbs tingle. My breathing slows down. I'm completely at ease. I enjoy it, sure, but it doesn't feel natural.
Hope everyone has a good day.
