New Cure for Insomnia
So what do you do when counting sheep doesn't help you to fall asleep? Well, I decided to read some of my course material. I am reading about the stages of grief. So far the book has discussed denial and anger. It started to bother me tonight reading about the stories of patients that were struggling with a chronic illness. I think the reason it is disturbing me so much is because it conflicts with my own views of reality. For most of my life, I believe I have tried to create a pseudo-reality in which bad things don't happen, especially to good people. My family has labeled this alternate view as "Kelli-world". If I am to be honest with myself, I liked living in this type of thought pattern. I just didn't accept reality for what it was; ignorance was bliss for me...at least for a while. So I have put the book down for now and decided to blog until the sleep fairy visits. Ummm, suddenly my eyes are starting to get heavy. Maybe the new cure for insomnia is to say SLEEP FAIRY. Guess you can tell I am getting tired. Until tomorrow then.
