HAZE

Knowing what to write is sometimes hazy. But who the heck reads 6ixthman.com anyway? Why not write what you’re feeling. So let’s see if anyone is tuned in. I can’t sleep and desperately need to sleep at the same time. I have to tell the truth this week in a way I’ve never done. Have you ever been in this position? And I’m not frightened of the opportunity per se. If anything I’m just tired. You ever been tired? I mean have you ever been tired in that way where time is indistinguishable and hours and irritability becomes a defining character trait?

I’m guilty of not having a sabbath. I’ve not had a day off in months. And only now do I see the effects. It’s not hard to rest; it’s hard to avoid worshiping work. There is a busy hum to life that for me has become deafening. So many good causes, so many great initiatives exist. And I reckon I’m involved in them all. So on this couch, at this hour I’m trying to escape the haze of busy-ness. there must be more than this. There must be a way to arrive to a place where I value rest enough to schedule it. I’m confident that there’s a softer landing than the strip I’ve used ending one week and beginning another. On that note, a post any longer than this and I’m responsible for my own haze. Here’s to telling the truth…to yourself first. Norman get a life by getting some rest.
