Day 29: Circle
I have a complicated relationship to sleep. I love sleeping, when I sleep well.
But I rarely sleep well.
I toss and turn and lie awake at night and early in the morning. And I dream. I dream of fire and war and mayhem. I dream of being chased, of unknown threats, and of dismemberment. I dream of confusing and unsettling situations where I'm stuck and scrambling to make sense of my surroundings.
I don't know why I have these nightmares, but I do. Maybe what I need is one of these. A dreamcatcher to capture my bad dreams and only let good dreams pass through the net and slide down the feathers to me.
