April

Last day of April, I figured why not leave another step. The thought that has been in my mind for the past few weeks is how sleeping peacefully is a privilege.

What has been better is I now no longer start work at 8am. I still wake up at 7 to prepare, but at 8am, I take my morning naps.

This morning, just like some days, my sleep was very light. By this, I mean I am asleep with an active mind — worrying, thinking about work, the things to do — I decided to wake up and it was 8:16am. I prayed then to God to give me a peaceful rest, which I received after. But how I want to bawl my eyes at my prayer.

Tonight, I prayed my family will get their peaceful rest. I pray I will. I have come to realize I have always taken it for granted. Peaceful sleeps are blessings, a seemingly small thing that is actually huge.

Kainis. Can’t express myself. But okay na. It’s 1 in the morning on a tuesday.
