Day 9: A striving, and a striving, and an ending in nothing


I love that quote by Olive Schreiner. It certainly does remark on a lot of things that happen on a daily basis. How we constantly work our asses off for a much coveted thing, or a deadline, only to be bummed off later. Like my fiction writing assignment. I rushed to complete it, even missed a class for it, only to realize that the assignment wasn't due until Thursday. Brilliant.

Hypnos must be weaving his spell on me, for I find often find myself dazed and bereft of sleep, even though I've had my sufficient share of slumber. Speaking of which, I find this painting of Hypnos and Thanatos particularly beautiful.
It just seems so peaceful. Not to mention, sleepy... too...
