I've come to realise how the hands on the clock spin faster when one is asleep.
When a person claims that he likes to sleep and does in fact, spends most of his time sleeping, does that person will for time to past more quickly or simply needs more rest?
Most people associate sleep to recharging the body just like how charging a phone refills its energy to function. We sleep to get rid of our tiredness. So when a person claims that he spends most of his time sleeping, the person is revealing that he gets tired easily due to several factors such as a weak physical body or the fact that he has many things tiring him at the moment. This can be a sign of stress and inability to cope with the current situation that he's facing.
In another case, when a person enjoys sleeping for the fact that sleep takes away our consciousness of time, it can show signs of escapism and shirking of responsibility or otherwise, refusal of taking up responsibility. This can be due to a stressful environment coupled with the incapability of meeting expectations.
What about when a person claims that sleeping is his hobby during an introduction with people at first meetings? (This is something that happens quite often in my opinion)
Personally, I feel that it creates a negative first impression of laziness and having a dull life. Among the wide variety of hobbies that one can possibly choose from, if "sleep" is the first word that appears in that person's mind, he most probably does not give a damn to anything much apart from things that affect him directly. This can also reveal selfishness. But these are just my opinions based on certain experiences.
Sleep also gives the impression of isolation. A person who sleeps away his time is most likely to be quite anti-social considering the limited amount of time he choose to spend interacting with others. Careless comments such as "I'd rather be sleeping than ___" can mean more than they seem.
Yet at the same time, sleeping can be a form of vulnerability. When we close our eyes, step away from the world we live in and be engulfed by the darkness that entails, we throw ourselves into an abyss of mystery and the unknown. We have no idea what really happens and let our minds drift before waking up in what feels like a shorter period of time than the actual. The vulnerability we exchange in return for the peace and comfort that sleep guarantees is ironically reassured by the fact that after sleep comes the wake. Do I make any sense?
Somehow when I think of this, I think I understand a little more about why people choose eternal sleep. The overwhelming feelings of circumstances induces them to never want to wake after they bodies sleep. They think that when their bodies sleep, they would slip into the unconscious mode whereby they do not even know if they have or have not fallen asleep yet because that's what happens when we sleep. We have no idea when exactly we fall asleep. They are willing to risk going into that mode without knowing whether their sleep would be dreamless / nightmares / good dreams. Or perhaps all they care about is not waking.
I wonder if people who commit suicide actually regret after their eternal sleep?

But anyways, I was just being curious and typing down some of the thoughts that ran through my mind. These are scientifically unsupported opinions of mine that I concluded from personal experiences. Or maybe they are just common sense.. Idk? Heh.
I'm feeling hungry after thinking so much...
