Preoccupied

31 05 2008

This week has been like a marathon for me. The office has been stressful since we have started out with telemarketing this week. I’ve got to say that cold calling is not for me. Telemarketing is not the only thing I’m dealing. The things I juggle at the office vary between office politics, link whoring and writing. After work is not an option for relaxation as well since I still have a freelance writing job to comply with. Yep, I am overly preoccupied. Sometimes I get downright dizzy but most of the time I am just out of focused.

I rarely have some me time and I just realized that I have been missing out a lot lately. I miss reading good books and DVD marathons the most. When I have some available time, I usually use it for sleeping or going out with James (this is a perk that I enjoy the most). But I still wish I have more time to waste on reading books and whole day DVD marathons. There sure is a difference of living to make a living and living to make a life. The later is more enjoyable and far more satisfying. :) Are you with me on this?

With the continuous crisis that many of us face, I guess living to make a living is the most logical option especially if you have responsibilities to deal with. It’s a sad fact that many are facing. But on the other hand it depends on the perception of the person. This is just me talking. If you have anything to add, please do enlighten us.

I totally agree, I am lucky to be able make a life as opposed to making a living… Everyone should be able to enjoy life and fulfill those responsibilities, it it a shame we can’t have it both ways.

Eat to live . . . but don’t live to eat,
Work to live . . . but don’t live to work,
Live to love . . . but don’t love to live!
