Don't get me wrong. I love my life, but it can't always be fun and enjoyable. There are things that everyone has to do in order maintain their lives as stable. You have to do what you have to do to get what you want. When I am in that "have to" stage in my day, I tend to go through it with a stoic, calculation and efficiency of a robot, I guess. It doesn't cause me distress, but it is hard to ignore compared to how I am when I am enjoying the fruits of my labor; loose, spontaneous, easy going and doing what I like. Does anyone else out there have this sense of duality?

You make an intelligent point. But I think that two hours is worth the sacrifice.

If you're talking about the argument for free will, it has nothing to do with whether you decide that you "have to" do something or not. The lack of free will simply means that you have only one choice -- moving away from God -- rather than the ability to move toward Him in order to be saved. If you are implying that robots are stuck on sin, then I would have to agree with you.

It is my perception that each and every movement can each believe "robot" or independent as good as be gratifying. For example, whilst respectable athletes play their sporting events, they love gambling them (for essentially the most side) but when they start, it's as even though they are not rather making an attempt, they move via the movements nearly routinely, flowing with a few obvious unseen vigor. Now of direction folks, a minimum of currently, ought to paintings, research, consume, etc. Some of those movements might look tedious, repeated time and again to the factor in which we do not even realize we do them (ever get that feeling?). However, attempt to revel in even those movements, make a aware attempt to real be glad about being bodily/emotionally/spiritually equipped to do each and every movement you do during the day. Doing so presents you an extremely good energy: to peer existence because it rather is in its cosmetic, steadiness, and concord.

I hear you....We are like pattern recognizing machines that have the ability to see animals in clouds etc. 8 hours sleeping, 8 hours working, 4 hours shopping, preparing, cooking, and eating food along with taking care of all the messes that are included with having a digestive track. 2 hours dressing, walking, and commutting back and forth to work. This leaves 2 hours of our day to NOT be robots...Life is a cruel joke.

Yep.
You can set up mental machinery that will run without much attention from you to do routine repetative actions.
The trick is to do it "knowingly" and be aware of it. You only become robotic when you forget you set it up and the machinery starts running you.

Oh yes, I go into "Auto-pilot" for many different reasons. Mainly, because my mind is elsewhere, while my body does something routine.
