I slept almost 8 hours last night for the first time in a while. I believe I got into REM and found myself dreaming deeply. In the dream, I was running around getting things done. I was in a hurry, feeling rushed to go somewhere as I did things; opening big doors, going down hallways and into rooms searching for something I needed. I was also. Trying to do menial tasks for others; because I said I would. Then, I realized it was nine minutes past when I was supposed to be somewhere important. It was then that I awoke feeling overwhelmed and upset.
I immediately thought: I need to slow down and enjoy the moments of each day with Virginia (My Wife). I am rushing too much and thinking about things out of my control.
