Glad you like it. If it works for you, that's all that really matters, isn't it? philosiblog 09:20:45 \| 9 May 2011 Review of AncientProverbs: Beware the barrenness of a busy life. -Socrates @philosiblog - no problem, it's a good post. You write well and I think pretty much everyone will relate on one level or another... @sTubbuLon5 - clearly a refined, big-picture thinker ;-) DJ 09:22:04 \| 8 May 2011 Review of AncientProverbs: Beware the barrenness of a busy life. -Socrates Nice blog post. My biggest stress reliever - in the moments of stress - are simply to step back from back from any situation and say to myself - "will I still here alive tomorrow even if x, y, z does/doesn't happen?" Sounds silly, I know, but this is a really good technique. sTubbuLon5 07:26:54 \| 8 May 2011 Review of AncientProverbs: Beware the barrenness of a busy life. -Socrates Agreed (on barrenness and stress). Thanks for reading my post. philosiblog 03:43:02 \| 8 May 2011 Fools rush in where angels fear to tread. -English proverbs Always been one of my faves... DJ 12:30:16 \| 7 May 2011 Review of AncientProverbs: Beware the barrenness of a busy life. -Socrates First off, I agree, Socrates rocks! My comments above are perhaps a bit flippant - I know what he means about the 'barrenness of a busy life', and you make some good points in your blog post to illustrate that meaning. I guess I was trying to make the additional point that busy does not necessarily equate to barren. I'm as busy as you suggest in your post, but I don't experience the stresses you allude to... I simply love what I do, which means it usually doesn't feel like 'work', but much more like 'living a dream'... Everyone needs some R&R at times, but if you're really stressed out by your life or what you do, then maybe consider getting 'busy' with something else? Just some thoughts...
