Science will tell you
More sleep will help
   Happiness
And make it easier to see the positive

However
How do I tell science
   Unhappiness
Does not help sleep
It is too easy to see the negatives
      By dark
Studies show that sleep-deprived people fail to recall pleasant memories, yet seem to recall gloomy memories. One experiment found that when sleep-deprived people were asked to memorize a list of words, they recalled 81% of words with a negative connotation (like "cancer") and only 31% of the words with a positive connotation (like "sunshine").

Let's try again. Good night
