sharing Lily Allen: Everyone’s At It

Love is a very powerful emotion.  It is probably the greatest emotion in mankind.  I didn’t come up with this, someone who is very close to my heart shares this with me.

Today, I woke up to the sound of the rain drops on the window.  Looked at the clock next to the bed and realised OMG, was my eye-sight ok?  It was way pass the hour I was supposed to be up and doing some works.

Today is one of those days, I did allow my body to take charge.  I feel awake when my eyes open.  No grogginess.  I am feeling good overall though just a bit of guilt for sleeping in.

How many of us feel guilty when sleeping in?  The answer is we should not feel guilty.  If we feel guilty, then we are really wasting time now.  Our feeling and thought navigate the path we take each day.  I like to leave you the following line.

Happiness of your life is linked to the quality of your thought.  The quality of your thought can be seen in your eyes and skin.

Do you sleep?  Yes!  Anyone will give you an ‘inquisitive look’ or merely thinking you are ‘nut’, asking such a nonsensical question.  But how much or how do you sleep?

We often hear that we need a certain amount of sleep, depending on your age and also gender. How true is that?  From most research, it is said that adult needs at least 7-8 hours of sleep.  That is a norm.  But you do hear of some adults sleeping around 4-5 hours.  They do claim that they can function as well as someone sleeping 7-8 hours.  Research has also claimed sleeping more hours than necessary (more than 9 hours) can increase mortality rate.  How scary is that?

My experience is there are some mornings I would wake up very alert and fresh.  I would be extremely motivated and my day would be productive, not to mention the high mood I would be in. It normally happens when I am able to go into sleep at around 10.30pm.  During these days, my skin also glows.  There are also days that though I have slept for at least 8 hours and yet would feel unmotivated and unproductive throughout my waking hours.  It happens when I have interrupted sleep.

Everyone has to find their own sleep pattern – a complete good night sleep or small naps during the day plus some hours in the night.  Different people have different sleep needs and also depend on the hour they can go to bed.  The most important thing is to listen to your body.

During sleep, our body goes through repair and cleanse the system of toxins and emotions accumulated during our waking hours.  It also helps to build our immune system.  Inevitably, our skin will glow when our internal organs are functioning properly.

Sleep can also help us to keep our weight in check.  Sleep deprivation can lead to over-eating = weight increase, not to mention the risk of motor accident, lack of concentration/motivation and lower productivity during our waking hours.

Sufficient/Quality sleep gives you a healthy body and it will show on your skin – the biggest organ in your body.

This month, we will be celebrating the Unconditional Love from a mother to a child – Mother’s Day!  This is the day we have designated to remember our Mothers.  Though in my and most people’s opinion, we should remember our Mothers everyday.  It is still very nice to put aside a day in a year to specially thank our Mothers for all she has done for us.

There are many ways we show to our Mothers of our love.  It can be through a nice meal, a day at the spa, a gift and etc.  The most important of all is the quality time we can spend with our Mothers.
