Boy, do I have some Tales to Tell...

Boy, do I have some Tales to Tell...

Tuesday, November 10, 2009

Our society wastes so much time and energy on things that we should not. So, I've taken the liberty of listing what I think is a waste of time and energy and how we should better invest it.

Take the money we spend on war and spend it on educating our children properly.
Instead of investing time into opposing same-sex marriage, how about using it to teach tolerance and acceptance.
Stop hanging out with people who are not healthy for you. Take that time to work on bettering yourself rather than letting them take you down.
Why not take the time spent twittering and use it to learn how to cook.
Instead of bitching and moaning about how fat you are, take that time and learn how to cook a healthy meal.
Stop shopping for the latest gadget and start shopping for sustainable, healthy foods.
Maybe take the time to catch up/laugh with a friend instead of watching reality television.
Instead of going out for a cocktail, how about going out to a dance class.
You spend so much on rent/mortgage, try spending some time in your home rather than at a store, the gym, or, worst of all, at work.

I always hear people complain about their lack of time or energy to do good things for themselves. I always laugh because they seem to find time to do all the other wasteful projects in their lives. Somewhere in my life, I decided to make sure that everything I do has some sort of benefit for me. It may sound impossible. Even cheesy. Even selfish. But, I will say this: once you learn how to do so, everything becomes easier to achieve. Think about it. Later.

I'm just writing down some of the things that run through my head.

Eating up the City before it eats me up. I'm a freelance cook who spends his free time working out, cooking for "my man", and wondering why the Right is so concerned about my bedroom.
