"I moved like a sleepwalker" (Weisel 87) (the novel Night)

I was hoping to just get some explanation on the symbolism of this power line. I am using it in an essay I'm writing for the novel. maybe some "busy words/ filler explanation" to make my essay seem longer, haha. If someone could help that would be great, thank you.

Answer:

In my opinion, sleepwalker is much alike to daydreaming.

Step-by-step explanation:

Your mind is somewhere else but your presence is in a place you do not know you're still in. In life, we are sometimes sleepwalkers; not literally walking while asleep, but continuously going with the flow of life without knowing the purpose why you are still striving to live everyday. And I think it's normal, it happens to everyone. Maybe time will come you'll also realize your purpose.
