When I was a teenager, I remember my Uncle Ned falling asleep at the dinner table quite often.
It wasn't until recently some 35 years later, that I have begun to truly understand why!
Uncle Ned used to get up every morning at about 4 or 5am.
This was the time he spent with God!
If dinner was served late around 8pm, then you can bet an hour or so later he would start to nod off.
I love my Uncle and more so today, because of my understanding of why he would fall asleep at the table.
About two months ago I started getting up at 5am to read the bible and pray. I then proceed to the Northside.
My wife now complains about me going to bed at 9pm or sometimes earlier!
I have no regrets because my life has never been better!
I used to think Uncle Ned was crazy.
Now I appreciate him more than ever!
If it's rude to fall asleep than I will gladly live that kind of life!
