For every person that has set foot on earth, sleep is a natural thing. We slide under the covers, fluff up our pillows, and close our eyes. We fall asleep, wake up in the morning unable to remember the past few hours, and feel refreshed; it’s just that simple (Healthy Sleep).

Life in the bunker with Murphy was pure bliss. Late night dances, getting drunk and talking about everything that came to mind...the simple stuff. "What do you want to watch?"

My family is asleep, and it is I who is left awake in the cold breeze of the night. I close my eyes, and try to get some sleep. The creek of the closet door wakes me up. I turn over to look. The fear strikes me like getting impaled by a metal rod. “It is but only the wind,” I tell myself. I close my eyes once more, and I doze off into a deep…
Although not necessarily so, many aspects of religion make it susceptible to being a latent source of conflict. Along with peace, belonging and power, dilemma, confusion and illogicality are also terms bounded within the subject of religion. As a result, these so called “terms” serve nothing but large and rightfully so, conflicts. All religions have their accepted dogma, doctrines and virtues and they must be followed without a question.
