I was 10 when some guest speaker addressed us, students, in our school. He expatiated on the virtues of rising early and made a deep impression on young me. Before that, I often heard from my father ‘Early to bed and early to rise…’ ⋆.˚ ☾⭒.˚
⏰So in my early days I made a resolve to be an early bird. I often set the alarm for 4 or 5 am but alarm could never rouse me from my slumberand even if it did I soon dozed back. 💤
My mother finally told me not to set the alarm as it woke up everybody but me. I agreed on the condition that she would get me up. That too didn’t work and whatever time I was up I threw a tantrum why she did not get me out of bed in time. 😫
Decades later my dream of being ‘healthy, wealthy and wise’ is still unrealized. ッ
