All I long for, all I have longed for for years is to retire (prior to wanting to retire, my ambition was to play). Given a chance not to work, I would take it. However, this is not because of laziness or some inherent trait of sloth. Rather it is because I want to pursue my own interests and ideas; I want to do my own thing. One of the saddest things I find in talking with people about not working (aside from obvious disapproval) is that they like working, they would get bored not working, after all, there is only so much TV one can watch.

I'm not that mellow and my thoughts are sometimes fanciful and creative but I can be pragmatic and realistic most often.

ingrid: isn't it wonderful to find like minded people?
ancilla: like I commented to MOI, it is general enough to be true for most people at some time or other. If I had come up as blue brained, I would have accepted it just as easily as being purple brained.
btw, can u remove the 'word verification' requirement for commenting here.... it's a 'pain' to comment here, i need to try a few times for each comment to succeed. :(
So ... for the time being it is going to stay. Maybe I should disable anonymous comments, but then that would have stopped "inner grace" from leaving a comment a few days ago.
Just my thoughts...
