morons

OOPS!! Sorry for the misleading topic. There is nothing related to morons here, but nevertheless....w'll add some 60% letters to the word moron.
Confused !! well, the topic for today is Oxymoron. I came across this word during my MBA preps and since then, the word has ever intrigued me. Lemme start off with a conventional definition and a couple of examples for the word "oxymoron":

A paradox reduced to two words, usually in an adjective-noun ("eloquent silence") or adverb-adjective ("inertly strong") relationship, and is used for effect, to emphasize contrasts, incongruities, hypocrisy, or simply the complex nature of reality. Examples: wise fool, ignorantly learned, laughing sadness, pious hate.

I m not going to revolt against the use of the word or its definition here. I, rather, happen to like it a lot. What came in my small "8086 processor" was to have some oxymorons for the much-hyped-modern-era fast-life-loving-people. So, here we go ....

1. Playful Childhood
2. Fresh Air
3. Healthy Love
4. Peaceful Life
5. True Friends
6. Lax Deadlines
7. Free Weekends
8. Nice Sleep
9. Sweet Dreams

Will add more as and when they 'knock' me .......
