I don't really understand people who say they have trouble sleeping. It's the latest disorder of the 21st century - too stressed to flake it gracefully. I don't understand when people say they just can't clear their minds enough to let sleep come to them. Count sheep, count dogs, count men; rhythmically sending yourself off. I don't really understand insomnia.
Sleep is what I do best. I can sleep anywhere, anytime. That period between laying my head down on the pillow and drifting off into dreams, is the time I think about so many things. I dream of how life could be. Revise what has been. I write stories. I have adventures with the cute accountant, Michael, he doesn't know what he is capable of. I fly to the moon, swim in the sea, walk in the beautiful forest, float on a breeze. I get lost in a myriad of thoughts, to drift off from. If my mind is blank, I don't get distracted enough to fall under the night time peace. I love that time after the light has been turned off, where I fall happily into gravities embrace. If I'm not a sleep with in five minutes, or so, of my head hitting the pillow, I wonder what is wrong. That's how easily I drift away.
I love it so.
