Insomnia and the beauty of the dawn

Insomnia isn’t something I’ve conquered, despite trying every known home-grown remedy!  Rarely do I sleep for more than 5 hours in a single block, waking with an instinct at the heart of my natural body rhythm.  Lying awake in those early hours of the morning can be tough in the dead of winter, even though it’s warm in bed and the night is empty, but in summer it’s so much worse.  Birds rejoice in the dawn as daylight creeps in under the blinds. But even in my sorry wakefulness, I try to appreciate the magnificent beauty of the new day
