Hey everybody

It's time for my bi-yearly blog entry. I really do suck at this, I know. Thought I'd squeeze one last one in before 2007 ends. Then make a resolution about doing better next year.
I've been doing alot of thinking about religion and work. Separately. About what an incredible waste of time and energy religion is. I used to think it was OK as long as it made people happy, but now I just think it's sad that they find their happiness in something that is so obviously made up from start to finish.
When it comes to work, it seems almost everybody (including me) is doing too much of it. A great thing I heard in 2007 was that people are generally pretty good at fulfilling dreams. The only problem is that we're fulfilling other people's dreams. Not our own. As somebody else wrote a few years back - few people do more with their lives other than aquire and spend money. Talk about waste. In comparison, devoting yourself to a religion almost seems worthwhile.
