    Can't Sleep

    Have you ever laid back late one night, thinking of days long ago?

    Thinking about how you should have done things differently?

    Taken a chance or spoken up for yourself?

    Why do people do this?

    It's not as though we can change what has already happened.

    Everyday people beat themselves up for nothing.

    Instead of facing the endless battle of yesterday's mistakes,

    We should focus our wakened hours planning out solutions for tomorrow's troubles.

    But then, instead of worrying about problems in life,

    Sleep would come much easier if we allowed ourselves to dream a little more.

    Dream about unthinkable ideas, places, people,

    Maybe, by accident, tomorrow's troubles will not come at all.....
