They say that you should start your day with a mantra and it should reflect the goals you have in mind. For example, if you want to make a lot of money, you would say something like, “I am successful.” Or, if you are battling self-esteem issues, you should greet the day by saying, “I am worthy and I am loved.” What they don’t warn you about is the fact that if you sleep deeply enough, you will forget all of this. You sleep in and then greet the morning with a certain level of amnesia that has you believing that The Sandman spent the night tea-bagging your eyeballs so violently that a few brain cells were knocked into another dimension. If there is one thing which will guarantee a good night’s sleep, it’s a good shag at bedtime. Although, I’m pretty sure that a head injury and some hard core pain killers will do the job too, but let’s not bruise my husband’s ego with that fun fact. Whatever it was, I was plunged into a dreamless sleep, cocooned in darkness that brought peace to the depths of my soul. I had been held deeply by the comfort of my unconsciousness (and my duvet) to the point I had slept through my alarm. Again.
