Surrendering to Sleep

I fell asleep after the news this evening...again! When I awakened, I headed to my computer to write. I experienced something rare.  Nothing would come.  Sleep has me in its grips right now.

A few years ago I took a meditation class, and when I fell asleep while meditating, the teacher said, "If you fell asleep, you needed sleep."

I think we probably don't spend enough time listening to our bodies when they tell us to sleep, to eat, to drink water or to exercise.  Tonight I am listening.  Tomorrow I will be intentional about listening again.
