But we *are* forced to act otherwise, aren't we? The patterns of work today are at odds with how we'd rather prefer to do things. Oliver Burkeman, in #fourthousandweeks, describes #procrastination as our attempts to claw back the feeling we have control over our time, now that we've come to understand it as something to lease out to others, and not something that belongs to a higher power.

@nlowell @dailyhaikuprompt

lovely.

I'm just finishing up #FourThousandWeeks and am gobsmacked, realizing the accumulated weight of 70 years of internalized pressures to produce, produce, produce and never 'waste' a minute.

What a waste! Much better to linger over my coffee and the morning paper, watching it grow light, listening to the birds.

We pay distraction literally with our lives. When we come to the end of our lives, the sum of the things we have paid attention to, would have been our lives.
