Life & Work & the Incompatibility of the Two

Sitting at my desk today, ignoring the teasing spring breeze floating through the window, made me realize how pointless work is. We work all day, every day so that we can have money to live. And yet, in the ultimate paradox, working to have enough money to live leaves us with so little time to actually live! We work to enjoy life for 2 days each week. What, I ask you, is the point of that? God created the world so that we can enjoy it, not so that we can hole ourselves up in our offices and come out only on weekends. There is something so wrong with society when NOT living is the acceptable way of living.

I propose we all give up our jobs. Barter for what we need. Keep moving. Live life. Enjoy life. Nuff said.

Amen sister.

But with all that free time, wouldn't we be bored?
