Morning Prayer

“I have risen this morning by thy grace Oh my God …*“
I felt the sunrays coming from the bedroom window touching the entirety of my face prying my eyes and senses open. I blindly reach out across the sides of my right shoulder for my blackberry and as I expected albeit with dismay it told me it’s just around 6 AM.
I automatically checked the unread emails from my office and did a mental storage list of tasks to do afterwards. It is typical for me to sleep with work on mind and wake up with work on mind. The only difference now is its 6 hours earlier than my usual wake up time. It’s been like this almost for two weeks now. No matter if I sleep as early as midnight or as late as 4 AM, at around 6 AM, the sun’s reflection tells me to get up.
Sleep, sleep, glorious sleep …. Why am I deprived of it?
