My mind never, ever stops. If I don't fall right asleep when I get into bed, I'll be up half the night thinking.

I do worry, but it's not the only thing that keeps me awake. Sometimes it's thinking about what I have to do the next day, or how to do something better, but it's always the thinking that gets to me. Damn thoughts!

Complete surrender should not just come at moments in which one faces overwhelming odds, but in the calm when it seems one is personally in complete control of one's life.
