It feels like we're moving around faster than ever in the name of speed and efficiency. That might be OK if it felt like we were feeling the benefits of all that hustle.
Yes, most of society can't enjoy their moments. The technological imperative has made most of society addicted to their electronic devices, which has created such a connection to always checking those damn phones, due to FOMO. For example, people at the health club need their fixes of connection to texts, posts, and so on, which keeps them from focusing on what they're at the gym for--getting healthy. How ironic. When people find out that I don't bring a cellphone to the gym, they ask me what I do there without that electronic device. I tell them that I meditate while I work out, enjoying every second of that workout, because I respect it and, thus, myself. Enjoying real life is not to be avoided.
When I was a kid, I resented how chores cut into my daydreaming time. There’s life’s pace, and then there’s our frantic hustling. People can be so silly.
Slow down and relax, says the guy pumping out a 2,000-word blog in his free time. 😆. (Don’t stop, though.)
This is what I do to relax!
