Insomnia Sucks!
Why can’t I just fall asleep….I hate this feeling. I wish this over-active mind of mine could rest, but the thoughts swirling in my brain make me feel like my head is sprinting laps around a mental track of frustration. I asked God for peace so that I might rest…I’ve received none, I asked him to take a burden that I perceive in front of me because I don’t think it is mine to bare, but I still feel its weight. I came to a dead end in my mind time and time again. So, whats next….I guess I put my head on the pillow, and try hard to clear my head one more time, because I need some sleep now, or I’ll be getting it during a sermon no matter how bad I want to stay awake.
Sorry if this seems weird…I mean it is 6 am and I didn’t get enough sleep last night either, so if it wasn’t weird I would be pretty good at going without sleep….but I know I’m not, and this does sound weird when I re-read it.

There are hundreds of men (and a few women) who through the years have referred to themselves as “philosophers.” They have lived long lives devoted to what often seem like silly subjects and written long, very important tomes about critique the usefulness of human reason or about whether or not the world is an illusion of the human will.
Buy one of these books and begin to read it. I guarantee sleep in under 10 minutes.
Anyway, that’s how I shut down my mind at night 🙂
