Havamal Snippets 23: Spend Your Nights Sleeping, Not Worrying

It's Wednesday (Woden/Odin's Day) which means that it's time for another verse from the Havamal 'Sayings of the High One - Odin'. The poem full of wisdom, both everyday and ethereal. (The poem can be found in full HERE):
23. A foolish man
is all night awake,
pondering over everything;
he than grows tired;
and when morning comes,
all is lament as before.

Practical advice for those who have a tendency to burden themselves with unnecessary stress during the night.


[End.]
