Our race is so strange to me, though I include myself in all this. When things don't happen for a while, we get restless. When we stop being busy, we feel like our time goes to waste. We get irritated and want something different instead of just being content with things at the moment. Things are still, so we think we need change. This is a serious issue for people who have no idea how to appreciate the small things in life, far more than for someone who does, I think.
Why is it so hard for us to just stop sometimes? I mean I get that we can't really, but so many people always wish they did when they had the chance, when they review their lives. What is it that stops us? What is wrong with our society that we can't be alright without instant gratification? Whats so bad about having nothing to do instead of hanging out with six different people, spending money on things you don't need, and using gas to accomplish both? Why is taking a walk on a nice day reviewed as lame in our times? Why is it frowned upon to sleep in and just have a conversation when you wake up? Maybe actually eat a decent meal for once. I understand taking advantage of free time, I'm just saddened by our society and it's recent lack of being able to appreciate a day that isn't completely full.
Lets take a walk sometime.
