If you didn’t need sleep, what would you do with all the extra time?
Let’s all remember that resting is good for us, and sleep is important for a healthy brain. But, if I didn’t have to sleep I’d spend more time with the horses. I could ride the rideable ones and work with the others much more often.
I would be able to tell my equine friends how much I value them, just as they are. They don’t have to perform to be valued. I’d tell Drew that a lot. I don’t think he likes the stuff we ask him to do anymore.
Of course some of the time I’d spend with birds and other woodland folk. I could watch flowers grow or help restore native habitat.
I would spend the dark hours knitting or crocheting, reading, and writing. Hanging out with Lee would get a chunk of time, too. Hey that’s not much different from today. I’d meditate a lot, too.
And maybe with more awake hours I could do better at keeping up with beloved friends and family. That’s important.
So, no, I would not save the world, but I’d relish my world and try to make my community a happier place
Point: I enjoy sleeping. I’d miss it.
