What if noon was midnight and midnight was noon? Would we be eating lunch in the dark and sleeping during the day? Will the birds still sing at night as they do during the day? Day into night or will be night into day. One must think what if? Actually, some do this out of choice or necessity. So, what is time really all about. Is it really about keeping a schedule or just a way to keep us somewhat organized about our lives? A plan as such to keep us steady as we go about living our daily lives.

A Foster child's room
When entering an empty room one pictures who will fill it up with all of what belongs to them. If one pictures a foster child who has come to stay for however long that may be needed. What do you suppose will be needed? Now picture a bed, dresser, desk and maybe a bookcase with a few books. The foster child walks in and says maybe "This room all for me?" They put down their backpack and unpack their belongings just wondering what to do with so much space for so little and pulls out a teddy bear and hugs.

Standing While Falling
Quotation from Friedrich Nietzsche "He who wrestles long with monsters should beware lest he himself become a monster. And if you gaze long into an abyss, the abyss also gazes into you. Man is not destroyed by suffering, but by the meaning he makes of it."

Getting Serious About Comedy (Part I)
If I were asked to remark on my life and the childhood that paved some road leading me to this point, I would have to say something about all the funny people who surrounded me for the last 26,872 days (and counting). Somewhere along that road, I became a big fan of laughter and the comedy that spawns it – and, I mean not only my own laughter, but the laughter of others, some of which I have actually been responsible for inducing.

I love the premise of your drabble, Mark. It certainly makes for interesting conversation.
Suppose a night worker know this answer I did12 hr nights when I was nursing. 8am was breakfast wash uniform. House work prepare evening meal ready to cook. Sleep 12 am till 4.30 pm when I could then back work for 7. Hubby worked 8 am till 5pm seen him 2 hours a day but days off we got caravan ready and went to wales a few days ora week.😊😝
Some fantastical pondering! Half the time I don’t know whether it’s day or night or what day it is… So get me mixed up even more by redistributing night to day and day to night and I will be walking upside down. Good work, Mark!
I love your mindset, Mark. Now you've given me something to think about.
I saw this pop up. But then I had no idea what it was going to be about. So great title. Love how - even though this was written in long sentences. Wedded into a paragraph. It had the markings of poetry. The sound of beats and rhythm. I loved it. Nicely done Mark. 🤗❤️
