Food, shelter and clothing are the important needs of human beings- this is what we were taught in school, but seems like they missed up adding 'sleep' in the list of basic needs. Thanks to the fast life that we are living, it is hard to get good sleep.

Earlier times were different, I remember my father telling me that a eventful day is enough to give you a peaceful sleep, but these days things have changed. Work keeps you so busy and stressed that you cannot tame your brain to rest and a working brain means zero sleep.
Sleep keeps you fresh and healthy. I also know friends who take pills to put their minds to rest all thanks to the stressful work life.
A good sleep rejuvinates mind, body and soul, but the stress of working well and climbing the higher steps of career ladder makes us forget the needs of our body. But, that's absolutely wrong. Our body may not show signs of damage when we are young, but when we grow old, we would surely repent on our decisions, but there is no way to reverse the time.
I wish youngsters of today realise the needs of their body and prioritize sleep as much as they prioritize food.
