Man In The Moon

It never ceases to amaze me that one of the worst punishments of childhood could become one the greatest joys of adulthood.  Think about it.  Remember when you were a kid and a nap was the worst punishment you could imagine?  Remember those dreaded words?

“That’s it!  You go straight to your room and get in that bed!  You are not to come out again until you’ve had a nap.”

I would have such a different reaction if those words were directed at me now.

“Really??  Do you mean it?  Wow, thanks.  By the way, what did I do to deserve this?  …cause I may want to repeat it again tomorrow…or maybe even later today.”

Obviously, grown-ups have totally different priorities than children.

Lesson Learned:

Sleep is a wondrous and far undervalued joy of life.

DISCLAIMER:  This post has absolutely nothing to do with the fact that I didn’t get any sleep last night.  That’s just a coincidence.
