As the night falls, gravity seems to get intensified causing your back to fall on a soft mattress and eye lids drag down to the earth, however I understand gravity is energy which can neither be created nor destroyed but converted from one form to another, which means the intensity increase on one person causes an intensity decrease on an other. Why am I trying to find a relationship between necessity / attitude / character / personality which are driving factors for someone to sleep early or late and wake up early or late with physics, this must be the early bird creative syndrome or late night nocturnal creativity.
24 hours is all we have, when we have sunlight it’s termed as day and when we have none of it it’s called a night - simple isn’t it? No, it’s not, during summers even if it’s bright at 9 it’s termed as night and even if the sun pokes your eye at 4 in the morning it’s called early. What does this actually mean? Some one is all charged up to start the day while the other is ending it, some one is smelling of a nice French perfume mixed with coffee where as the other of beer and sweat. 24 hours are divided into routines which include French perfume for a few hours, cold meal, hot meal, feeling guilty over a meal already had and punishing your body for a decision your mind made in the past, beer and sweat, fresh bed, crumpled bedsheet etc but not divided by the evidence of light or not. Let’s call the active hours we spend as day and resting hours as night, sun, moon or any celestial object has no relevance.
Let’s say someone is early to rise, celestially, meaning even before the sun. People rise early to get a head start at something they need to do socially or due to a habit. When something you do repeatedly for a period of time irrespective of your willingness or not it becomes a habit, I had to go through this process till it became a habit but the process was unpleasant, meaning unwillingly. Anyway, I had to wake up early (relatively) as I stayed a bit farther away from my school and took longer to eat as compared to others (always wanted a bit more actually) to be at the same time and place as others. “Had to” or “has to” are really powerful phrases in English, when I stayed closer to my college and my bike was faster than others, ate a bit lesser (I mean faster), I still woke up at the same time, specifically at the same orientation of celestial objects, this is because of a concept called habit which was developed due to “had to”, always unpleasant and unwilling.
Life does not take a turn, we turn it. As we progress in our endeavour to get respected for our wisdom and not achievements, meaning as we age, our habits give us the advantage or the disadvantage for the choices we make. Farther I stayed, more I wanted to eat had to be compensated by waking up early. In a professional environment, competition is real, meaning we win something if we are better than others. Being early gives us a chance to be prepared and informed to reciprocate faster and hence before others. This advantage one gets just being early makes the “unwilling had to” activities done in the past more forgetful. Life gets better, of course with its own set backs, hurdles etc.
Waking up early or staying up late with respect to society you associate with or funnily with respect to celestial objects is a scientific or logical formulation of one’s need to be alone in their own personal space.
