As night falls

During the day, we have too much to do to contemplate our problems. Maybe your job is time-consuming, maybe homework is difficult, maybe you have kids that take up most of your day. We don't have time to sit back and think through whatever problem we feel we need to face.
That's what happens at night. As night falls on our shoulders, so does the weight of the world. We try to find a way to fall asleep.
If you're like me, you may start daydreaming until it bores you to sleep. That can lead you to any problem you've ever had to face. You can start remembering everything that made you unhappy that day, then that week, that month, and so on. In your head you say things you never had said and probably never will say. You feel like a screw-up and count the reasons why. Keep telling yourself, "I'm not going to cry, I'm not going to cry." Sometimes this works, other times it's just a countdown to the waterworks.
