Things You Forgot That Were Amazing About Sleep
Steemit Beta

Sleep. It is a wonderful thing indeed. It is the thing that mostly relaxes our minds, and soothes our souls. However, nowadays we just sleep when we are really tired and exhausted. We have forgotten how amazing sleep is. The things that are amazing about sleep are:

  • Sleep gives you energy: When you rest up, you usually wake up refreshed and rejuvenated. You end up having a lot of energy to get through the day and can accomplish many things.
  • It takes all the pain away: If you are feeling really sad, angry, or stressed, sleep can calm you down and take the issues away. It may even make you feel better in the morning when you wake up.
  • It messes up your hair (sometimes in a good way): Sometimes you can get an unexpected hairstyle as you sleep, and feel lazy to fix it up in the morning. LOL.
  • Sleep helps you to retrieve memories or something you have learned: When you think of an idea or learn something before you sleep, your brain can process it better. You can probably get more ideas or retrieve more information than you expected.
  • It helps you to have an ongoing relationship: What I mean by this is that you just have a long relationship with your bed, who loves you so much.
  • Sleep provides safety and comfort: Normally when a person wants to sleep, they will usually sleep in a place that is safe and comfortable. No one would ever sleep in an area that is dangerous, otherwise it would be risky.
  • Sleep is a luxury: When you sleep, it feels so good because you get to rest.
  • It reduces a fever when you are ill and heals physical pain.
  • You get to control how much you want to sleep: People can control how much and when they want to sleep, depending on schedules.
  • It saves you from embarrassment: If you are drooling, or have bad breath, it does not really matter because sleep does that to everyone.
  • Sleep is life: Sleep literally revolves around life.
  • Sleep makes you feel accomplished: Since it is the last thing you do after everything done during the day, it makes you feel complete to some degree. This is because you have done what you could.

If there is anything more amazing about sleep, please let me know. In the meantime, get more sleep during Winter Break. Happy Holidays!

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
