Why I stay up late at night
Invention of smartphone came way later than this habit of mine who always loved staying up late at night. Should I blame notifications on my phone, or the netflix show or just mere habit of mindless scrolling — in my case, I might want to vary from this multitude of reasons.
/ During the day there is a rush of doing things which hardly allows me to rest. At night, when I’m looking at sky with minimum/no traffic allows me to be still. How do you feel near river in the middle of beautiful and gigantic mountains, I feel exceptionally close to it when I look at sky in the night.
/In the day, I get feel normal in between the meetings, social gatherings, family dinners etc but during the night, I feel closer to myself.
/ Even if one is awake early in the morning, there are certain errands which demands you in one way or another. But at night, I feel like a child. A kid who is lost and cheerful. She is cheerful by extending her arms, grinning while at the same time seeing pictures of friends and family and expecting the light to contact her.
/ Clock is running fast in the day. I have to keep an eye on two hands of clock, and trying to reach the deadline before it strikes the chord. Around evening time, this clock doesn’t influence me. I feel like I’m drifting in the air and simply permit me to be there. All of abrupt, clock doesn’t exist to me outline.
/ The comfort of looking at phone and expecting a no response from your friends. The comfort of sending a warmth text to a loved and simply being glad that you have convey the sensation of affection.
/Sometimes we get reply from our friends at night when they see us online — ‘ why are you awake? Sleep’. This reminds you of love. At times, conversation kicks till early in the morning. Even when the next day is drowsy, you do cherish the conversation
/Social media also becomes slow after midnight. All of sudden world is at halt. Everybody choose to rest, and it permits you to enjoy some time off too .Feeling is mutual at 2 AM across folks.
/Dreams are more alive during the night than in day. You put your sweat and time in achieving that one thing in life. Maybe for some folks it happens during the early morning, but for few it happens at night.
/Chai and maggie tastes differenlty at night. I know, I understand, it taste the best in mountains but when you do video call to your friend, discssing about dreams and life, tasting hot chai on your seat and simply being in the moment is a different feeling. You feel close to content.
/This is very funny but I get all of sudden an urge to make my life better at 2 AM in the night than 6 AM in the morning.
/Night advises me that dark is certainly not an outright shading. Night lets me know how we have categorise into highly contrasting. It allows me to so many colours in the dark which is magical. It gives me a chance to see my imperfections with a warm heart, and I feel better. There is a comfort under moonlight.
/ Universe may have reasons to tell but I wonder why soul connects at night more than during the day. Conversation hits your heart during the dusk than the dawn.
/I wake up late. I miss out on sunrise, have hardly seen unless I have burned the midnight oil. I wake up in the house full activities, and loud conversation. I casually walk around my room, and make my bed. Step outside the room, and see the world has already began it’s journey. Rather than feeling late, I always feel I’m on time.
I start my day with a smile, in light of the fact that for world I’m late however for me I’m on time.
“My soul is like the flower that blooms by night,
And droops by day;
Yet may its fruit expand, though in the light
Night-blossoms drop away.” — Christopher Pearse Cranch
