I play the piano pretty well but I also want to play guitar. So how much time will it take me to be a fairly good guitar player and be able to play rock music.

Some people complain that shopping, tanning, sex, NOT working, being "counterproductive," etc, is wasting time.

But technically, isn't anything we do wasting time, because it is using up time and in the end we still die anyways?

The term "wasting time," seems to imply that what we're doing is not productive, and it's not somehow contributing to benefit ourselves, humanity, the world, or somehow deemed respectable even.

But isn't this term relative?

What one considers wasting time, another person doesn't.

Also many things considered to be wasteful are downright enjoyable.

Why is work so highly regarded, even if it makes one miserable?

Why don't people regard work as wasting time?

We as a society placed SUCH importance on success, productivity and other things, that anything that does not contribute to our "ON THE GO" mentallity is considered wasting time.

Remember boys and girls, after we die, we don't take our possessions we worked SO hard for, with us.

They all want to give advice, but i would never go to my friends for advice on anything important. I usually ask an older person.

Serious question. We all have to deal with pain and suffering in our lives, we have to do things we don't like to do just to make it in life. Life is full of pain and misery. Very few people decide to end it themselves, so what makes you keep living even though life is full of crap? I don't think I know the answer to it, but something inside of me tells me to keep living, that tells me to hang on... I don't know, maby it's the curiousity to find out what the future will be like, maby something great will happen to me one day.

What makes life worth living to you, and why?
