I came to the philosophy late, well into my curmudgeonly years. This old dog is learning new tricks. Scott - You are right, we have automated leisure right out of our lives. Less dross, more life I say. Bean - then you are ahead of the game… I came to the philosophy late, well into my curmudgeonly years. This old dog is learning new tricks.

We've created more liesure, and fill it with more meaningless dross than we would ever have imagined. I like a full day, a full life, but it isn't the same as hectic nor does it preclude liesure. A reminder is always good. So... Thanks. It is amazing how with all the modern conveniences we seem to not have time for liesure.

My colleagues gave it to me as a going away present when I quit my job to run away to live in my desert shack. Fortunately I've been occupied doing all the lazy things I always wanted to do, so I haven't gotten around to reading it yet ;) I understand their gesture, but this was already my philosophy of the heart before I knew this book existed. Hope your personal revolution is going as well as mine. -- Bean I own this book too. My colleagues gave it to me as a going away present when I quit my job to run away to live in my desert shack.
