When Dreams Are the Enemy
In the article "When Dreams Are the Enemy" by Russell Lockhart, (which you can read here.) Lockhart describes the soldiers thoughts of sleep during and after combat by compiling evidence from various articles and interviews to create a small paragraph that draws the readers in. This small paragraph explains the views of sleep. Sleep is not so much the enemy, but rather dreams and reoccurring nightmares triggered by the extremely stressful situations that the soldiers have personally experienced. The author goes on to explain that we essentially are "robbing ourselves of sleep and dreams" which are causing many side effects physically and emotionally. If only everyone had background knowledge on sleep, the world could possibly be a better place.

I agree completely with you. If people knew the side effects of the lack of sleep and what dreams can do to your body, I feel the world as a whole will not only be a better place but a healthier place altogether.
