poliphilo It has just turned nine o'clock in the morning and I have been up for nearly three hours.
As the morning wears on I will get tireder and tireder, but I will fight my way through until mid-afternoon when I will usually- but not always- take a nap. Generally speaking I'm in bed by nine.
I don't need to be up so early- it's not as though I have cows to milk or chickens to feed- but I've never been much of a one for nightlife and it's a long time since I stayed up watching telly.
And so I've fallen into what I take to be the natural rythmn of the planet- living by the sun.
Humans are naturally diurnal, not nocturnal- and I'm simply being human
For much of my life I never got to see daybreak, but now I do- as a regular thing- and it's as beautiful as sunset- and cheerier....
