Path of least resistance

Human beings work voraciously to become the fastest, richest, smartest, best dressed, the list goes on.  We work at working.  We spend money we don't have to impress people we don't know and all the while create a facade we can't recognize.  

All this effort is killing us.  No matter our walk of life we are killing ourselves some more quickly than others.  If we are not dying physically our mental and spiritual health has declined to a point we succumb to "better living through chemistry".  Should we not take a long look in the mirror and become acquainted with the reflection of the human being staring back at you?

Now is the time to determine if you want to continue on the path of destruction or take a path of least resistant.  This does not mean that you become aloof, disinterested or lazy.  Rather, take the time to slow down, take a mental break and rethink the importance of life, and determine the importance of the things you have gathered.   Are you less important than the house, car or position you have in life?  Are you finding yourself being careless with the way you care for yourself in order to maintain the "lifestyle" that you or the masses believe to be perfect?  

I encourage you to take time this week, walk instead of drive, put the wallet away and find something to do that doesn't cost money.  Work eight hours rather than twelve, spend time with your family and enjoy the house that you worked so hard to build.  Take the path of least resistance.  You are sure to find a new person living in your house.
