...I slept terribly.
I laid awake for hours worrying about everything that will surely happen but in unexpected ways. Anxiety is paralyzing. It shortens my breath, suffocating my soul. If I can’t breathe then my soul can’t sing and bring me back into a peaceful sleep with timeless hymns that sweetly remind me everything is exactly as it should be.
