        No problem. He has a distant cousin twice removed... Maybe you're heard of him? Goes by the name of Nyquil?

        haha...Nyquil makes me hyper...lol I hate taking that junk. My children are the same way. Medicines that are suposed to help you rest and feel better do the opposite to us, but my husband on the other hand can take one dose and be knocked out for hours...lol

        A few months..lol About 3...I think. I went through some life changing events and things just havne't been the same for me anymore. My husband works a weirdo job and is never here, so I couldn't really sleep when he isn't here before hand but atleast I got some sleep. Now its like I try and try but I will fall asleep for like an hour at most and I am awake. But my body eventually does take revenge on me..lol Every once in a while I'll be relaxing on the couch or something and I get knocked out for hours...lol

        Oh yeah it is. I totally agree with that. Being selfish sometimes is what we need. And yeah changing is never easy. I see it as one of the hardest things any human has to do. Praying to me is a touchy subject. Not because I do it and believe it but because I don't and that is why I don't talk about to people since I have respect for their beliefs. And I'm glad you have inspiration. It actually reminds me of a short story I read once. I can sent it to you via message on here if you like.

        I know change is a part of life rather we are ready for it or not. Change is also sooo hard, but if we never had it life would get really monotonous. My body is changing and dealing with things in its own time and unfortunately sleep is something that has got all screwed up. I pray so much about everything but it seems pretty useless eomtimes, I know that sounds awful, but it is true. I undertsand everything you are telling me, and I don't think you sounded condescending at all. I am just gonna deal with things as the come and hopefully out of all these problems and being sleep deprived =) I will become a better person in the end. There for a while, nothing in my life was in my control and was just there..empty..but now things are better and I am realizing so much about myself and everything I ever thought was set in stone but really wasn't. I may have some inspiration of my own but it maybe selfish, but its okay to be selfish sometimes...lol

        Life's change all the time and at the risk of sounding like I am condescending which I'm not we all hove have to evolve and grow out of it. But it takes something extra in us. Something that is inside us that still has no word for it. Love for my wife and inspired mine. But love alone did not make it happen. The unfair feelings you have are not ridiculous at all. That is the thing I am talking about. That one thing you have in you that needs to come out. And slowly it is. Live off of that. You've changed once do it again. This time you have control over it and this time can be for the one thing you really want.

        So much stuff happened in a short time and it's like I got lost somewhere in that time. I had surgery and then a cancer scare and well, I dealt with all of this alone and my body sorta reprogrammed itself. More than just my sleep patterns has changed and sometimes I am scared of the person I am becomming..I know this sounds ridiculous.... I know the unfair feeling, cause my kids want me to do things sometimes and I feel like a truck ran over me, but then sometmes I sleep and feel awful too..soo..either way I am all messed up =) I amhoping though and praying that one day everything will go back to normal.

        I can relate to that actually. Not in the sense like you but I can. When I got back from the middle east I had a horrible time sleeping. I tried everything I could but I couldn't I was in a place I wasn't used to. And just like you when I relax somewhere... Literally anywhere I would fall asleep for hours at a time. I could be sitting at a backyard barbecue with friends and fall asleep. Eventually though I just decided that i need to sleep for those around me. In my case it was for my wife and daughter. It wasn't fair to them that I was always feeling run down and tired all the time. I know it's easier said than done. But you have to find your new comfort zone.

- You speak the truth - and often, yes, painful truth - as always.

  - I'm not sure it's all painful.
    I think the poem itself (Hyla Brook) talks a lot about looking back and renewed and continuing love even though time has passed and things have changed.
    But in some instances, the things and people we love aren't what we thought once we break through their silly exoskeleton, and damn if we don't love them anyway.

    - I didn't mean to imply that this is always the case, but you're right - we find a way to love, even though things change, sometimes for the better, sometimes for the worse. Some people are capable of giving unconditional love, no matter what happens, and that's pretty amazing.
      I think the hardest thing to do is to do that last thing - love someone after we realize they're not the person we thought they were, and our perception of them is sometimes shattered. It may not always be easy, but often, we do find a way to love.
      The reason I said it's painful, though. is that sometimes we find that we love that someone, and somehow we're brought down with them. We love them and try to get through with them, and drag our own selves down in the process.
      Maybe I'm over-analyzing, maybe I'm bringing too much personal experience. That's how I interpreted. But, once again, you bring the power with the brain-fodder, and I love it.

      - Look at your brilliance go. You amaze me, Andrew. I mean, yeah, you're bringing personal experience to it and interpreting things you way, but that's perfect, because that's what conversations are, people bringing their personal experience and views and sharing them. It's good.
        I hadn't thought about it your way, how we can love people despite ourselves and be brought down through loving them somewhat unconditionally. I'm sure it's even more painful watching them flounder despite all of the goodness being launched toward them. I think in those cases, it's interesting when you know it's time to let go...

        I wish I didn't have to bring my own personal experience into that whole loving someone and sinking with them thing... but then again, maybe I'm okay with it. What don't kill us and whatnot, right? But it is that knowing when to let go that's important - something I need to work on. But, still, I like the basic notion of the quote- we love things for a reason, and we remember those reasons even when what they're associated with change.

        Yes. That's the thing I struggle with the most though, I think... change. I think a lot of people struggle with it, we see it every day, holding on to things or people because we're just afraid of change and what will happen.
        
        I don't know, I just keep coming back to this poem, it gives me hope that if I can love something (or someone) two years ago, love them today despite the pedestal being lowered, maybe, just maybe there's a way I can love it/them many many moons into the future. I like having that hope.

  - Yes. Even if they're not who we thought they were initially, we just accept them, all of them, and carry on with the loving.

      - It's easy to love you. You're earnest, with a silly self-deprecating humor, and kind-spirited. Only a fool would miss that. :)
