There's this family in Italy, who never slept. 

They suffered from a genetic disease that kept them awake, for months. Until their bodies just shut down. 

Even after all these years, scientists still don't really know why we sleep. We just know we have to sleep, because without it, we make poor decisions, we say things we shouldn't, and sometimes, we see things that aren't there. 

We've all hit that point of exhaustion. The point where nothing makes sense anymore. Your body hurts, your brain becomes foggy, and you feel like you're trapped in a tunnel. When all you want is your bed. 

So, how do you keep going? How do you not just sit down and give up?

 Sometimes it's easy. Sometimes you play games in your head. You make up someone. Someone good. 

Whatever you need. 

To keep you going.
