Worry keeps you up at night. It is bigger in your mind than in life.

A figure sits up in bed, head in hands, nine swords on the dark wall behind. Anxiety, worry and sleepless nights. The fear is often far bigger in your mind than in real life. Talk to someone you trust; worries shrink when they are spoken aloud.

Reversed
