i like to believe the condition of our soul and body has a lot to do with our attitude towards sleeping.

children hate it because their souls are too alive that their bodies neglect to feel the need for sleep.

adults love it because no matter how strong their body has become, it still couldn't contain the exhaustion of their soul.

tonight, i am the intersection of a kid and someone who has grown. i am growing.

i am in a constant struggle between exhaustion and liveliness. of weakness and strength.

tonight is one of those nights i wish i didn't need sleep. live soul, tired body.
