Relief

On school days, Daughter’s alarm sounds at 5:30 (it’s ringing as I write this). Does she need to wake up at 5:30? No. She likes to be awakened and then to turn the alarm off before she goes back to sleep; she treasures the I-can-go-back-to-sleep relief.

How much do we subject ourselves to just because it makes us feel good, for a moment?
