This reminds me of the Midas touch.

Wow. What a phenomenal story. More time equals more effort/energy spent and doesn’t truly give the solution one would think to be. Unless you actively just use it for a restful night. But, alas, that is not what many mean when they say, "I need more time in the day." This truly was beautifully depicted and the ending was heart-aching.

It’s one of the things in this world of ours - constantly speeding up instead of recognizing the value of rest.

Thank you so much for reading!

Yes! Your story actually inspired me to slow down and rest. We can not out run being human. So we might as well honor it.

You are so welcome!
