A little ramble before bedtime

I feel like a lot of thoughts are going through my mind, this always happens to me just before I am about to sleep. It’s almost as if throughout the day none of the answers come to me, but I always have a million thoughts racing through my mind before I sleep. I have been told, and I know that I’m an over thinker and it is something I can’t help but be. On the one hand it’s good because you analyze a situation from all angles, however it does have its drawbacks. Once again, it depends how you look at it: this can be both positive and negative in different life situations …

Today has been a pretty average day so, I don’t have much to comment on. Personally speaking, the times that I am highly emotional are when I am able to write a lot and express my ideas with many metaphorical expressions. Writing at these times somewhat gives a sense of catharsis because you’re able to let go without anything holding you back and once it is all out, you feel so much better.

Before I finally “hit the sack” I want to reflect on life and how weird it is. I feel as though as you grow, certain things make more sense and other things get more complicated. Sometimes, it is frustrating that you can’t figure out those complicated things and nothing then, makes sense. Take this as a general statement as opposed to me referring it to a particular situation. I hope this makes sense. Sometimes my writing just mimics the random thought pattern that my brain has but I guess everything does not always have to make sense at the same time. Just like the bizarre world of dreams. My dreams never make sense and the weirdest occurrences always seem to happen — just like Salvador Dali paintings. Yet, I am oddly drawn to these fantastical situations I face every evening. As i drift off into dreamland and await my dreams with impatience, I wish you a very good night.
