How come the night time bring out your 'emotional' side/stuff? Probably because during the day you've got eleventy hundred things to do & your mind feels more occupied.
Sounds about right plus the added bonus of sleep time is dream time and the subconscious is busily sorting through the stuff that we ignore during the day. I have activities that I use specifically at night to help calm my mind. Quiet dreams.
There's a quote I've always loved that goes something like this,
"The demons come out at night, but so do the muses."
I've always felt this was true as most of my very best artwork was done late at night and early in the morning. I've also noticed that I've gained the most insight from reflection during these same hours. Less distraction gives us more time to look inward... and hopefully we can be happy with what we find.
Yes you guys are so right..Ruth, what are the activities that you use to help calm your mind I'd be interested in hearing those:)
that is a good quote lwan..me too I get so much insight when it's late & nobody else is around..it's nice but not how things seem so much worse at times
