146. Soon there will be no leisure time for anyone but the ultra rich
as the rest of us work our days away trying to keep a roof over our heads, food on the table & clothes on our backs.

We are partially to blame for letting corporations distract us by defining affluence as material wealth instead of leisure time. It's people & the time you spend with them that make up the substance of our lives, the memories that we cling to on our deathbeds, not the things that we acquire & own. Remember the sundial in the opening scene of Gone With the Wind?

"Time is the essence of our lives."
