It's Sunday, and it's the weekend day in most countries. Almost all of us wait for the weekend because it's the day that allows spending our day as we want. We desire to pass the time meaningfully with relaxation, but most of us end up our day doing something that keeps us busy in that day also.
Last night, I read a post that made me realize again that we are repeating the sequences of our regular tasks and that making our life boring. In her post, she said, "Surviving does not mean we are living" and that caught my attention, and I agree with that statement.
Just think about our daily life. How we spent most of our day? Isn't it like we are doing the same tasks again and again each day, except for some exceptions? The difference is the date of the calendar changes, but our work remains the same. It's like our life is stuck in a circle, and we are running, and each morning we start everything from the same point. Isn't it the tasks like a robot? I think most of us are already turned into human robots.
Why are we doing so? The primary and direct purpose of it is to earn money to survive because we need to fulfill the basic demands of living a decent life, like ensuring food, clothes, a house, treatment, and other basic needs. Nothing comes to us for free, and in this present world, when inflation is striking us badly, maintaining balance from the financial perspective is indeed difficult. Maybe, for the reason we are running after money desperately like mad.
Is it only for surviving, means just for fulfilling basic needs? In that case, what is the meaning of such a life? We are humans, not robots that are bound to do something that is programmed. We have emotions, and we have the desire. But our desire starts to fade away with our growth when responsibility increases, and it starts to engulf ourselves. After crossing the age of 24/25, responsibility becomes a burden for us because we become mature in that time. Our maturity forces us to think about our future, and we keep focusing on it, and we want to earn money to secure the future.
At the end we want to enjoy a happy life, which is the very common desire, and we are working tirelessly just because of it. Having the vision for the future is very important, and I don't have any doubt in that case, but what is the meaning of the future, which is still uncertain, but for that uncertain future we are wasting our present? Is it worthy of it? Don't you think we have a soul, and it's dying each day working like a robot? Youth is the best time to satisfy our souls because it's the best time life is colorful to us because with our growth we will lose the color, and forth finding happiness will be different after losing the color even if we have huge money. You can understand it by a simple example. In childhood, little chocolate was enough to make us happy, but now that's not the same for us. We have money and can buy many chocolates for us, but it can't give us the happiness we felt in the childhood time. That's the reality. So the happiness we can feel right now may not be possible to feel in the same way. For the so-called future, sacrificing the present happiness is kind of foolishness.
I am just trying to say that why shouldn't we leave ourselves to do something we like to do that makes us happy rather than always thinking about money? It's not so difficult to break the circle of life we are living as long as we are determined.

Thank you!!
The fact that you agreed with that survival post and I also agree with yours just made me laugh. Sounds like a chain of agreements.
But yeah, it’s really important to enjoy the present even as we work for the future we want because it’s not promised. Wasting the present just for an uncertain future is really not worth and I’m glad you brought that up.
Although I am doing the same, I am trying to make things different except the regular tasks. At least, I won't regret for it later thinking that I didn't try.

Sometimes it makes me wonder why we do such things but the need to put food on the table pushes most of us to keep pushing, to the extent that we lose sight of the most important thing - to live, to sit and enjoy the moment, to appreciate what we already have and be truly happy.
Hmm. We become to obsessed with financial things that we forget the actual purpose of finance and life.

STOPEverything is not about money money and money, we need to find inner things that make us happy and truly live the best life and not just working all day like a robot only to satisfy our desires for that moment. True living lies in what we can find that makes us stay happy every moment.
Hmm. Every time we can't think about money because we need to remember it's not the only thing to do in life.

Mostly i also get bored to do repeat tasks everyday especially getting bored from cooking but later i realized it's necessary to survive, if i don't cook i don't have to eat, if i ordered from the restaurant then it's only for a single time and i need to cook again.....

Obviously we need to survive but we can't forget that it's not the only meaning of life. we should try our best to enjoy our present moments instead of doing everything for survive.

There are a lot of ways to enjoy life like we can arrange a tour or we can go out for dinner or lunch 😁 at least se can get relief from boring and same routine
This hit deep. 💭 Why work like robots when we can enjoy the present too?
Hmm. I am also thinking that.
