in the Darkness (or bright Light of June)

Daily writing prompt
When do you feel most productive?

I feel most productive during my waking nights, whether in our December winter during our darkest polar nights or the June Midnight sun Light of summer. During these nights I get so much done, feels like sometimes it’s kind of manic this thing. And I used to be a heavy user of energy drinks (three to four each day on average) but now I don’t drink every day because I’m not so dependent on them anymore.

I feel like night time is sacred to us on the neurodivergent/schizoaffective side, I’m also epileptic (temporal lobe epilepsy) so I need to be careful staying up all night for extended time. I enjoy an iPod session during the waking nights, playing some drum&bass music to get my energy in balance. Often I write quite a lot during these nights, blog or other media/forms including writing in physical notebooks. I like reading in different ways either a book or reading something on my electronic device. Sometimes I watch a great and interesting documentary of some kind, or old tv series from 1970s television (NRK).

There are a lot of activities to do during the nights in every season, but the Midnight sun presents special moments due to the all-day light. Enjoying a can of cider outside in the garden, watching our wonderful view in mindful state (or maybe slightly tipsy and affected by the different psychoactive beverages), it’s special. I really love our Arctic summers and the place I live is so magical, we get plenty of tourists wanting to experience our unique environment and culture.

Thank you so much for visiting my blog, it truly means a lot to me and I hope it was interesting to others reading. Have a wonderful day ❤
