Day 055:
Among the many basic urges of the human body (eating, thirst, warmth, sleeping, sex), the urge to sleep is the strongest. An individual with enough willpower may force himself or herself not to eat or drink (as in the case of hunger strikes and the like). Sexual urges are the most often controlled. However, no matter how strong you are... you WILL eventually fall asleep.
Ironically... this seems to be the most time-consuming and useless activity of the human body. We can force ourselves to eat faster, drink faster... and do other things faster. But sleep demands time like no other. Four hours, Eight hours. It will demand what it needs. And unlike the other activities... this is a eight hour time block of unproductivity. You can't study, can't read, can't write, can't draw... can't do anything. Useless.
But it still feels damn good.
