Thanks Global! I'm not exactly sure of the length. It felt like an eternity! I remember looking at the clock just before going to bed and it was around 4, but I sat there thinking about the experience for a little while.

At the time, I was dwelling on self created issues. (I now realize that all issues are self created, and that we can be in control of how we react to a stimuli if we can become aware of our feelings during the moment).
It was as If the universe was saying, "you have it pretty good, things could be worse. Look what happened to these people. At the same time, there are many things that counter balance the horrors. Life is filled with horror and joy(plus a lot else). Which do you prefer? How are you going to contribute to the balance?"
Sometimes it's good for a change. Other times it isn't.
