What is Sleep ?
Sleep is a naturally recurring state of relatively suspended sensory and motor activity, characterized by total or partial unconsciousness and the inactivity of nearly all voluntary muscles. The purposes and mechanisms of sleep are only partially clear and are the subject of intense research.
[This is the defination as far as wikipedia is concerned about our Sleep - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sleep ]
I dont think any research is required to find the purpose of sleep. According to me its the best thing gifted by God. Why find a reason to sleep its a luxury to have so utilize it. Sleeping is the best form of relaxation. If we analyse our day, the sleeping hours are the most peaceful hours of your day. No hard feelings for the one who dont feel the same, but I am for the majority of people in metropolitan city like Mumbai.
Its the human nature which finds reasons to sleep like...
* I should sleep now as its very late right now
* I should sleep now as I have to get up early
* I should sleep as I got up early today morning
* I need sleep
We can drive the most costliest car / bike, we can put our hands on the most costliest and high tech gadgets, we can create chaos in our school/ college/ office in dreams, we can be with any celebrity we would love to be with... in short anything is possible in Dreams but thats only possible coz of Sleeping.
Many health appurtenant may argue on the sleeping hours. Actual sleeping hours should be from when one is tired enough to go to bed till the time our body wanna wake up... without any alarms etc. Why force our body to sleep as the clock says 11 and get up when the clock says 6? We arent robots right...
But after a nice sleep even the world of hell looks like heaven, all problems come to a solution, the water flowing from the tap looks like a beautiful waterfall in the green mountains, the bath tub looks like a lake etc etc ...
Actually sleeping is the best thing to do in life and if its winters... its the most awesome thing. Many would conclude that I may be the most laziest person in the world to sleep so long etc. But as famously quoted 'If you dream, you achieve !', so if you dont sleep, you dont dream and thus cant achieve anything in life...
So don't hesitate to sleep, sleep as much as your mind, body and heart will. There are no proven side effects of Sleeping. Sleep is harmless. Atleast the world will be at peace when we will be fast asleep, until and unless we snore !
Sleep well, sleep tight :)
