Just another sleepless night...


After the ice storm...
It's almost 1:30 a.m. I long for sleep, but it eludes me. Tonight, my mind refuses to shut down. I find myself thinking of friends I've lost touch with... old friendships renewed, now strangely quiet once more.
What does that mean? I grieve for that connection lost.
My mind bounces to other random thoughts... Can I get this done in time? Why hasn't this happened yet? Why did this have to happen?
Why can't I sleep? I'm just so tired...
Why am I so sad?
When will my sadness go away?
Wouldn't life be easier if our questions could actually produce answers?
I'm tired.
