Sometimes a long sleep isn't restful, the sunlight doesn't bring light, love doesn't conquer all, peace doesn't descend on the land, the coffee refuses to bring it's usual kick. Sometimes optimism seems like a fool's errand. Sometimes there's a sneaking suspicion things won't all work out for the best. Sometimes it seems everything is seriously off track, that there's some dark secret that can't be acknowledged, and much time and energy is expended making sure it remains buried in a cold, dark place.
