What a good night's sleep provides

In boat metaphors: I've turned the bow into the waves instead of taking them on the beam. When a wave hits you mid ship - the sensation of rolling and be tumbled is much more severe. As opposed to have the bow cut through the wave with less abrupt jostling. Pointing into the waves, I can see the gentle swells that are actually fairly benign.

Its all perspective and whether I've got my sea legs and some support to hang on to. I'm holding pretty damn good today.
