Spawned from "what are you thinking right now,". How about a discussion on whether you find your days easy to fill with enjoyable things, and whether that's been constant over your years. Has it been automatic or deliberate? Does it bother you?
Wannt some of my hobbies?
This is a fascinating discussion to me. It's a real philosophical excursion. This could make for a long and interesting thread about how does would like to spend one's time, does one need to fill it, what can one do to fill it. And how does that change during the course of one's life.Apparently I need some of them.
Have had varying hobbies over the last 5-10 years, but now in a lull in the road. Add to that having a stress free job, and being far more technically proficient than I need to be at work and the result is a snoozefest.
Attaining all of my dreams isn't all it's cracked up to be apparently.
I'd be interested in that thread.
For me it just seems to be a problem of pace. I've played sports, watched sports, played music, written a novella, written blogs, traveled, been to museums and art galleries, attended theatre, drank loads of craft beers/whiskies/coffees/teas, tried almost every restaurant in my city, cooked, had relationships, read extensively, mastered a trade...... etc etc
In my twenties I voraciously looked for novel experiences, but it turns out that when you do this eventually it gets harder and harder to find novelty. I mean.. yea there is a ton of stuff I could do but after all I've done I don't want to just go buy a camera and stare at birds, or build an arbitrary piece of furniture to pass the time. I want to do something I genuinely care about but outside of supporting my partner, family, and friends those things are getting harder to come by.
