The sun shone most of the day today complete with bright blue skies and temperatures into the mid-teens Celsius. I expect few more similar days this autumn. The house repairs occurred this morning. By late afternoon, I went for a longer walk than usual. It was lovely to be out in the sun, even though the air was feeling a bit cooler by then. It was invigorating. Early evening colours were lovely as the bright sunshine gave way to the deeper hues.
By mid-evening I was feeling very tired and ready to head off to bed early. I felt the need for sleep as a way of escaping some of the less pleasant aspects of current life. Some times like this, I wake in a stupor. I'm sure I dreamed, but nothing that I can remember. Yet, that is never a given. Anxiety brings dreams that process the fear in different ways. So, while sleep could be an escape, it might end up as a direct route back into the very things one hopes to escape. "To sleep, perchance to dream'
The song chosen for today has a few lines at the start that reminded me of the beauty of the change of light at the end of the day. It is an older tune, but I find it relaxing. Enjoy!
Twilight Time -- The Platters
