Not having anything to do! Pah! Imagine. And I suppose that is a problem for most folk who do not fill their minds and days with art, or music, or whatever it is, they actually have nothing to do. Once the chores are out if the way they resort to scrolling, or video game playing or something equally as useless. Actually not the something else, just that. The former for females, the latter for males seems to be a pattern. It’s funny how people can be such great individual musicians these days but don’t make great bands. Maybe cause they spend their time making content videos rather than practising their songs.
I have loads to do, tons, but when I don’t want to do any of it, I read. I just want to read my book. I’m enjoying it. I get a lot out of it, it is what I want to do. I get a sense of enjoyment in its completion, especially as it takes its place on the shelf. But the list of stuff to do keeps adding up, as for an artist or musician, it must. Surely it’s always there and that is a positive thing. To proclaim ‘I have nothing to do’ is the same as announcing your own death. I proclaim that I am alive.
