Our culture is centered around staying busy. What if I don't want to be busy all the time? I'm not sure if I like that word. It just sounds like a feeling of constant obligatory action-- which doesn't really sound like enjoyable action. A few obligations a week sounds better to me. I understand staying in motion is good to keep the wheels turning, because you know the saying-- that "idle hands is the devil's workshop." But then again, we are also living in a culture that is making meditation more trendy-- which is in fact, very idle hands.
I don't want to be busy. I just want to enjoy life in everything I do, whether my hands are idle or not.
