Did you sleep well?

When I went to Bangalore for the internship programme, two of my friends couldn't get the visa on time so they came 1.5 weeks later than the rest of the group. In the first morning during breakfast, some of us asked her, "Did you sleep well?" She smiled happily and said everything's ok. Apparently because all of us came down for breakfast at different time, she was asked for quite a lot of times whether she had slept well. She asked us happily, "Why did everyone ask me whether I slept well?" and we replied, "Because you just came last night and we were wondering whether you had enough rest :) "

Sleeping is just a part of our daily life. It's so normal, everyone does it every day, but apparently it is also a precious thing, eg for people who have insomnia. To be able to sleep is such a treasure.

In these 2 weeks, my friend asked me sometimes, "Do you sleep well?" Initially I don't know what to answer because no one asked this question. Hahaha. The second time she asked me, I couldn't sleep easily the previous night, so I told her, "Hmm.. Actually I didn't really sleep well last night." Then at that moment I realize how the quality of sleeping affects your stamina the next day, how I should be grateful to be able to sleep peacefully :), how taking care of my sleep (doesn't mean I must sleep 10 hours :P) is also part of an effort to keep my body healthy.

So you can ask your friend tomorrow, "Did you sleep well?" :)
