Safe place

14 Dec 2023


I need to get my sleep schedule straight. Well, I can only get it straight if I change my end-of-day habits, which has been really hard to do.

Anyway, I’m in a very sleepy state and am thinking about the joy of being in a warm comfy bed. I don’t know why, but this seems like a winter/Christmas topic to me. I mean, I can try to guess the reason why.

It feels more pleasurable to think about a cold snowy exterior while we are safe and warm. Probably that’s also why I like to sleep with rain/wind sounds.

So if I have to define the ultimate pleasure, I’d say be in a very sleepy state, with a warm comfy bed, while rain/wind/snow sounds are heard in the room (preferably real ones). I’m wondering if I should add an extra person to the equation…

To be honest, in the process of falling asleep, I don’t find the presence of my girlfriend an asset1. However, waking up next to someone, in the warm cozy bed is the A+ experience.

Enough rambling, time to go to the safe place.

See you tomorrow!
