My eyes are pulled open abruptly at 3:45 a.m. Dark dreams stain my pulse as I lay in the soft bed looking slowly around the room as I try to still my hard beating heart.

I’ve awoken about this same time for the past several mornings. Each morning, there is a new worry catching in my mind – an unanswered email, an unpaid bill, an unmade appointment – always some small thing left undone. It’s as though my mind is cleaning house in preparation for something.

What that something is, is a mystery to me, but it’s been gaining on me for a few weeks now. This sense that a shift is about to occur. Wish I had an idea of what that meant…is it personal, is it professional??? Time will tell.
