I sleep with my eyes open…

Daily writing prompt
How do you relax?

There are actually two differing sleeps that bring us rest. The sleeping sleeping, and the wakeful sleeping… the kind when your eyes are open. You know? Most would probably recognize this better, if I were to say daydreaming instead of sleeping with your eyes open. A very boring prompt title, if you ask me!

My dreaming could derive from my own imagination, or sometimes, from a book I’ve read, or even a really great movie. The point is, when I’m wanting to relax, I like to let my mind wander to wonderful and dreamy places that are devoid of humanities normal nastiness!

Don’t blame me for checking out sometimes, but real life can be truly unfun at times, so what’s a girl gonna do?

Besides, that’s where most of my best cookies come from… and I haven’t heard any complaints so far, so I must be doing something right…

  1. I agree with your sentiments. I use that process to figure out what I want to do next. For things far and near in my life. I like to say dram, much like I did as a child. I recently called it the mental montage. It tells me where I want to go, like your eyes tell you where to toss a ball. Your third eye works similarly. It’s fun for me to day dream, it gives me a glimpse of myself in a different state. It also provides me direction, what I think I will be when I get there, then I start to visualize the process of attainment. I wouldn’t have it any other way!
