Sleeeeeeeeep


 I always find myself pondering about the mechanics of sleep and why it is necessary. Sleep is so time consuming. Yeah, of course we as human beings need it. But sometimes I just wonder how life would be if we didn't need sleep. If our bodies were never ending clocks that didn't send your brain a signal saying, BED TIME or WAKE UP! Hell, if there was no such thing as the word sleep. It was blasphemy. It was false teaching. 
BUT lets be honest, that will NEVER happen! So.... here I am, trying to find something to say about sleep. Pathetic, worthless sleep that I wish  I could do without sometimes, so that I could get more done in my life. Who am I kidding, sleep is my life. Sleep is what keeps me going everyday. Sleep is the one thing that is always on my mind whenever I have free time. Whenever I can squeeze in a 20 minute nap, I do. But it still isn't enough. I'm as tired as ever. 

Falling asleep in my classes was a distant never-to-come-true nightmare when I was younger. Now, it's what I look forward to. I'm sorry to all of the teachers that look down on me for sleeping. But where my mind goes when I sleep, is my business and I cherish every minute of it.

  1. This is probably exactly how I would've described sleep! And my life! Well said my friend. You've done us all a favor of putting this into words.
