Everything is Different Today
And I’m trying to figure out what happened…
Have you ever had one of those mornings when you wake up and abruptly feel like your whole world is somehow different? You look around your room and everything seems exactly the same as when you went to bed the night before but everything FEELS differently. You are immediately convinced that something has happened but you have no idea what.
That is the kind of morning I’ve been having today. While I have been able to identify two things that are definitely different, this feeling I have of EVERYTHING being different goes far, far beyond those two little things.
The first thing that was different is the fact that I overslept… or slept in — I’m not sure what to call it because it is something I almost never do. I have written about how I am a morning person and always get up before the sun pokes its big fat orange face above the horizon. But when I woke up this morning I looked at the clock and it was 9 o’clock sharp. (There’s that number 9 again.) I had overslept by almost 3 hours!
I had missed out on my pre-sunrise walk and my sunrise ceremonies and my morning meditation… not to mention breakfast.
I slept until 9 in the morning! The last time I overslept/slept in was almost seven years ago! Plus last night I went to bed…
