Reflections on life, truth, faith, love, introspection, and transformation.

Late night energy

Ever since I was a child I have loved staying up as late as I can. There's something about staying awake that makes me feel alive. I see my young daughter fight off sleep and I'm tempted to cheer her on out of camaraderie.

At the same time I judge my late night sleep resistance to be juvenile and immature. Part of me believes I would be better off following Benjamin Franklins advice of early to bed and early to rise.

These opposing narratives push against one another as I blog instead of sleeping.

Where are your competing stories keeping you awake?
