Head hits the pillow, eyes close quickly, tuning out from the everyday worries.  No matter what happens during the day, come night or sometimes mid-afternoon, it is my time to forget about earthly problems. 

    Some call it a guilty pleasure I call it a necessity.  Without sleep the world would not function and effectively fall apart.  Sleep is actually one of the best things you can do for your body and is part of a healthy lifestyle. 

     I can practically fall asleep everywhere.  No matter what the atmosphere is, if I am tired enough I will be able to rest my eyes and check out for a quick cat nap or a long deep slumber.  Falling asleep with my head out the window on the highway….no problem, I have done it before.  Falling asleep on the back of a cruising boat…you bet I have done it.  It honestly doesn’t matter where I am, if I am tired enough I will be able to shut my eyes and relax. 

     However I can see how sleeping can become a guilty pleasure.  If one oversleeps and skips a class then this would become a guilty pleasure.  Also when sleeping gets in the way of your social life then it becomes a problem.  My best advice for those people would be to go to sleep earlier and not to procrastinate on school work until the last night.  I’m not saying that I have ever done this, but it will definitely help to eliminate the problem.

     No matter how long or where it is, sleep is sleep and I will forever treasure the act and not abuse it.
