Have you ever reached a point in your life when all you want to do is just go to sleep? And you don't quite know when you'd actually want to wake up. That state, whether it's common or not, is something I am desperately experiencing now, today, this hour, this minute and moment.
I just want to stop. Like how a period works at the end of a sentence. I am exhausted. And that's probably an understatement. I have reached the state of zombie-dom!
It's that point when you want to give up on everything, and it stems, I realise from tiredness - the energy to push yourself beyond and reach out satiated, you no longer have the urge to do the 'pushing' anymore.

And trust me, balance is not something that's easy to come.
Balancing the thread of life - I just hope I learn that soon enough. I still struggle, and desperately so. I'm still wearing my balancing shoes and I have a few more lessons to go before I become a pro. If I ever do, that is...
