I have been unable to achieve this state for quite some time. There has been nights where succumbing to a state of sleep was not an option. The inability to focus on what was before me during the day would lead to my completion of tasks to be held only during the night. Although in those times, the execution of fulfilling my assignments was crucial to my nighttime agenda, exhaustion has overcome me on almost every occasion. Tonight was a rare occurrence, I was able to stay attentive, but unfortunately, there were no significant deadlines to meet; my consciousness lacked its usual importance. Instead of stress flowing through me, the only thing that arose was a stream of endless thoughts. I have been needing to let them out lately.
At this point in my life, I feel like I am able to appreciate everything that has come my way. The stresses and struggles of family life, friendships, and my career path have made me stronger, and the same could be said about the support that I have received. Growth of myself and my friends becomes apparent each passing day; I wish to not let that end. I will do anything to keep the ties that I have obtained, which have been between those special to me, and those who have taught me the importance of the time that we have been given. This year is coming to an end, and though I will miss it dearly, new memories will be forged over time, and this growth that has come about will continue.
I saw the moon tonight, his light held supremacy over the sky, as if he was the only being in existence. He gazed upon the world blankly, for there was no one to watch him shine. Tonight I was his witness, whether he realized it or not. The dreamer was not alone.
