By this I mean in your 20s, with skills the whole world wants, and gainfully employed. But if I think back to my 20s I felt the same. I believe it had to do with not feeling in control of my life and that "life was living me". Then I moved to the US and discovered that this attitude is foreign. People here feel empowered and do whatever they set their minds to. Mostly it consists of staying busy, which is not meaningful in itself, but at least it fills time. I choose to fill my time with learning new things. Since you mention Spinoza, I believe that in his opinion it was man's highest pursuit. I'm currently reading "The 4 hour work week", which is quirky in places but tries to convince you that this is a rare a moment in history when the world is your oyster.Julian Sinaihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06209296951442764412noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32969039.post-40923341352847539862007-10-26T01:02:00.000+05:302007-10-26T01:02:00.000+05:30I don't know if what I do is good or bad or is hel...I don't know if what I do is good or bad or is helping me, I just do it anywayz, helps me stay positive.<BR/><BR/>Actually I prefer if people use their own names...makes it easier when I have to type the web address...but yeah, not a big deal reallyAnadi Misrahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06582358442214334418noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32969039.post-78044293680285447182007-10-26T00:25:00.000+05:302007-10-26T00:25:00.000+05:30Anadi,Well, I renamed the title of my blog because...<B>Anadi</B>,<BR/><BR/>Well, I renamed the title of my blog because that's what I had intended to when I named it <B><I>Can I (re)name it later?</I></B>, and renamed the url too because many people felt <A HREF="http://ashutoshsaxena.blogspot.com" REL="nofollow"> http://ashutoshsaxena.blogspot.com</A> was too boring and not innovative at all. :)<BR/><BR/>As you'd already know, that place still exists and redirects you to here.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00486763174881131657noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32969039.post-83743951863068768242007-10-25T18:20:00.000+05:302007-10-25T18:20:00.000+05:30I was surprised that everyone faces this.
