Ergh, lame rant. Ignore.

I like midnight. Once everybody else has gone to bed, and the house is quiet, the only light source in the room is the pale, faint glow of the monitor. It's a time where I get introspective, more serious, and less distracted by everything else.

I feel as if I can be myself more in the twilight hours. Perhaps the darkness implies isolation, relieving the pressure that I feel from external forces. It makes me feel calm and aware.

Talking to people at this time is also better. I think that many other insomniacs feel the same way about it all. Everything is loosened, and in its own way, intimate.

People calm down at night- it's just our way of functioning. Once the mind is calmer, happiness follows. It's not the hyper, energetic happy that one may feel with the sun's rays on their bodies, though. It's a more calmer, more mellow happiness. Serenity is another name for it.

And yet we're forced to do most of our business during the day. The time when the fickle, uptight side of humanity comes out to play. People seem to be so different during the day- I've talked to many people who act entirely different at midnight, compared to noon.

Kinder. That's the word I'm looking for. Consideration. The strongest bonds I have formed in my entire life have been made at night. The greatest conversations, the most beautiful moments, the strongest emotions. That is why I love midnight.

And no, I'm not a goth.
