They are called blessed who fall asleep as soon as they go to bed. Is this really a boon or a burden? Boon because it gives us happiness, but a burden because we tend to become more lazy and become addicted to it and finally become a loser in life.
Every person is addicted to something or the other. When we call a person "bad" if he is addicted to alcohol, then what do we call a person who is addicted to sleep? Sleep is a way of escapism. It’s a device to live happily in the fantasy world and to avoid interaction with the real world. The fantasy world treats him as a winner, he achieves everything he wants to achieve. When what ever we do in the real world gives us a feeling of failure, then one tends to escape from the fear of failure and falls asleep.
Not sure if it is good or bad, but when it keeps a person happy, then Sleep is the best medicine. Having said all this, my favorite quote still remains this "Dream, but as you dream, remember you alone can make your dreams come true!"

no question who the inspiration was behind this blog ;-)
It is obviously a boon, especially more so if you can also get up whenever you want, which is the tougher thing than going to sleep.
Siva, Lol
K7, true, ana thats y i said its an addiction, if u sleep for more than 12 hrs, apram it will be difficult to get up, you will feel more and more lazy and would want to sleep more. Thats y a burden, u cant get up easily!
escape route it is, no doubt :|
sleep for me is a 'boon'..i tend to get refreshed and energetic after a good 10 minute nap..so actually it is boosting my energy..but then,after having a kid,maybe u will realise its value..whadyasay..;)
Sleep, so that you can see the fantasy world. Wake up, so that you can make your dream come true :)
at last u woke up & posted something! :P
Dream; Dream with your eyes wide open!
I still can't understand being addicted to sleep :-S
I've always felt that sleep is an unwanted luxury!
