Occasionally there comes a time when one feels as though their life has been on hold for a long period. This usually arises when one recognises the achievements of their peers and contrasts them with their largely unproductive last while.
I've noticed that this feeling of stagnation is greatly associated with this deafening ambiance. The sudden realisation that your creative energy has not been utilised when you're on the internet early in the morning tends to send your brain into a state of unrest, as if to prompt you to accomplish something, despite common sense telling you that it is unfeasable at such an early hour.
I suppose this explains what the content of this blog so far has been all about. I suppose I have interpreted this feeling of wanting to achieve something with a profound state of consciousness, and have associated the quietness and stillness of my surroundings with a slowing of the passage of time.
It seems to provoke me to attempt to express something about something that may be on my mind in an abstract manner. While this will often be light-hearted and not entirely serious, I like to think I've written something different and perhaps refreshing.
I wonder if anyone can relate.....

nice I like that
Wow. That post expresses exactly something I've thought/felt so many times. Meeting of minds? :)
Randomly found your blog from the Ultimate Comment page. I'm in Frisco...
I feel this often. I stayed up all night last night after suddenly feeling the manic urge to DO SOMETHING to change my life at 4 AM. I'm about to graduate with an economically useless but interesting degree, I have hobbies, talents, appreciation for the small things...
but the pre-dawn panic is still there.
And so I continue to not sleep for days and frantically write, sew, and research until my brain explodes.
This reminds me of this book I recently read:
