“No such thing as spare time, no such thing as free time, no such thing as down time. All you got is life time. Go.”
—Henry Rollins
One of my favorite quotes. Also, if you don’t know about Henry Rollins, please do a quick internet search. He is super cool. I don't always agree with him, but that's ok. I still like him.
The more I experience and the older I get, the less things I worry about and invest my time into. Truthfully, I explore more areas than I used to, but I only focus on a few at a time.
If you pay attention long enough, you will recognize the lack of value in the majority of the things society encourages us to do. Drinking alcohol, watching shows, and buying overpriced designer products, just to name a few. Your life is meant for more than spending your time pretending you are not here. When it is difficult to be present, there is a need to press more into your own reality. Focusing on things that have no real value is a great way neglect the things about us determine our true reality. The things that need your attention.
There are answers on the journey of self-discovery and understanding of life. They are not found in mindless activity and superficial distractions. Spend your time wisely.
Have a great day!
