It is almost 3 A.M. and I still can't sleep. My body is already screaming that it wants to rest but somehow my mind is not cooperating. It is in its restless mode again.
My mind is going to all sort of places right now. It is in Baler, braving and raving the waves. It is in Davao, figuring out what to do next as I am there all alone. It is there in the other side of the world, sharing a good laugh with you. It is there in my work desk, deliberating on how I can all my deliverables this week. It is in Starbucks, reliving the day I lost you. It is here in my room, recklessly battling with my body to not get some sleep yet. It is in all other places, and I can't keep track where it is now. I swear my mind is now more of a travel junkie than I am.
Who ever said you cannot be at more than one place at the same time? My mind can do all of that. More than that. All the time.
My dear mind, I am begging you, can you stop wandering? You had been wandering and wondering for years now. At least for a brief moment, be one with my body and want rest? I know you wouldn't be delighted if my body gets sick, right? You'll have all the time to wander again later when the sun comes up, and you'd be doing just that all day.
So please, let's rest now.
