Insomnia has been my old friend for the last 25 years at least. It tends to come when I am stressed or grieving which tends to make me feel worse than I already do. As much as I dislike it, (insomnia and perhaps by extension stress and grief) has enabled me to step outside my day--the daytime me--into a world apart from the one that troubles me. During the good times, during the bad, and most especially during the terrible, when I lay unwillingly away and seek solitude and quiet, I seem to always find myself curled up and wide-eyed under a blanket of stars. Over the years location hasn't always allowed me to see the night sky in all the wonder it contains. Light pollution from big cities mars that beauty. An overly busy schedule can do the same. But here in this wild little Eden I currently call home, there is no hindrance to the nighttime brilliance. I remind myself often in the busyness, the stress, the sadness, that there must be moments withheld, set in reserve for a clear night and a canopy of stars.

Please tell me where the top is from? I need it so bad!
ReplyDeleteIt's from Forever 21. I don't think it's in stores anymore, but I did find one for you in size small on Poshmark https://poshmark.com/listing/Forever-21-burnt-orange-peter-pan-collar-blouse-59a22e3d13302a11d8039d9a
