Probably it doesn't matter, I know, and yet often it seems to me that it does matter. In the early morning hours, the small matters pursue me as much as the big ones. It's as if there is no escape from the constant barrage of thoughts and concerns, both large and small. The quiet of the night should bring peace, but instead, it sometimes magnifies these issues, making them feel even more pressing. Whether it's a minor decision that needs to be made or a major life event looming on the horizon, they all seem to have an equal hold on my mind. I wonder if this is a common experience, or if I'm alone in feeling this way. But even if others feel the same, it doesn't make it any easier to deal with.
