Well,
because you asked...
Not all day. Just most of my free time. I
enjoy reading (not fictional story pop-culture bs, but philosophy,
history, etc) Books people pay thousands of dollars for to go to
university to read and have some dude tell them what to think about it, I
read on my own time for free and digest and critique the ideas being
presented on my own. I've accomplished all the goals i set out to do in
my younger life (start a band, play a show, get some cash, all that
typical stuff) so now I guess I'm looking for more goals other than
simply get a career, a nice house, a new car, all that stuff that is a
necessary part of life but not really fulfilling in a spiritual sense.
About
friends, well, all my friends do (and I have enough of them, I'm not
"that" socially awkward) is work, then go drink over-priced bar booze
and repeat. I still see them all and have the occasional drunk night out
with them, but that comes with hangovers and what-have-you.
TLDR;
Basically, I'm trying to make sense of a tv-watching society that
thinks they have "freedom" because they can vote for middle-of-the-row
leadership while the ship sinks and there are no lifeboats. I feel that
what the crowd is doing is self-destructive, short term and that modern
society has ultimately seperated itself from nature, as do all great
civilizations before they collapse inwardly. To go into more detail
would require spewing out way to much, but if this sparks interest,
there are plenty of great books out there that cover a wide array of
subjects I can't touch upon in 1 post. |
