Idle Time

paul said...

24 hours in a day. 7 days in a week. 52 weeks in a year. How many years in a life? How much living in a life? How much idle time, conversation and action? Can you afford it? Idle always seemed innocent to me until I dug in a bit. I think it may be one of the greatest enemies we as people will ever face. It's like AIDS or cancer. It's a silent killer.

Def: Idle–adjective
1. not working or active; unemployed; doing nothing
2. not spent or filled with activity
3. not in use or operation; not kept busy
4. habitually doing nothing or avoiding work
5. of no real worth, importance, or significance
6. having no basis or reason; baseless; groundless
7. frivolous; vain
8. meaningless; senseless
9. futile; unavailing

Thanks Paul for this fantastic reminder and for posting! I look forward to many more!
