It feels good to just sit here in the still in the still of the morning, sipping my sugary coffee from my little blue cup. As much as I like sleeping in, I forgot how wonderful this silence is.
I appreciate silence when others find it awkward. Maybe I'm just awkward, haha.
Maybe I'm enjoying not working...I'm just sitting here and taking in the moment.
I've been dying a little at work, cause we've been busy and under-staffed all at the same time. Glorious. And you know the American way: work until you die, work all day...just prove that you're the best.
But once you prove that you're the "Best," what do you get? Pride doesn't make a happy life.
It just doesn't make sense: why do Americans work their lives away? It hurts my head everytime I think about it. Americans work a lot to have a better life...but when do we get to live if we're working all the time???
I know you've pondered this too.
Why are so many things in life ridiculous?
My silent morning is coming to end, now I'm off too work (sadface). Ohhhh, how I wish I could live in Europe!!
Working in a community college can be rewarding...especially since I do nothing until a student shows up.
ReplyDeleteSitting around, doing nothing...now THAT should be the American Way.
That's why I miss hiding in broken freezers as a kid...no sound - no light - the lack of oxygen...good times. Peaceful times even.
