But in terms of YOUR point, I do agree. However, the principle still stands true that eliminating waste out of one's life is critical to a good life. Sure, you SHOULD stop and smell the roses, but that in itself is not a waste of time. Sitting around wishing you could do other things and doing nothing about it IS a waste of time. And just the same, life is precious and should not be wasted. It's THE most valuable commodity you have; life, and subsequently time, especially reading some retarded article two times. |

Every thing we do is a lesson if we are willing to learn it. Even reading that article twice has its own lesson, ie, pay attention the first time!
Devil Girl's post is very insightful. I have been retired for 6 years now, and I really don't know how I found the time to satisfy The Man. My house is smaller than most, my income is very small, my hobby is inexpensive, I live very well indeed, and we are just fine with our 19" tv (all the rest of the electronics are at the same level). Earlier someone said that they couldn't POSSIBLY live in a vehicle with no stereo: too bad they aren't seeing what is there to see, or to hear. There is lots more to life than what is being thrown at us, something about thinking for oneself maybe... |
