My eyes slide open and I pause, patiently listening to the dark, waiting to learn what pulled me out of sleep and into this hushed bedroom at midnight. These used to be my moments of fight or flight, adrenaline kick starting as I strained to catch a sound invading our home, trampling the peace of mind in my blanket cocoon. Even the buzz of a streetlight could stop my heart. All these years later it is simply an inconvenience, an hour better left to kids out clubbing or New Year's Eve. I quietly breathe and focus on the world around me. - ljh 2/8/17
