• Relax?
    • Relax? Is this a term that is used to convey escape from the mundane (work or responsibility)? I would argue that this term is not attainable in U.S. culture. You are always expected to be a producer. When it is permissible to not be is when you are sacrificing your remaining time to enlighten another. You can't truly relax without penalty. All of the answers I may have to this question will most likely fall into the "laziness" category in many eyes. I love to listen to music, play video games (especially RPG's), write, engage in meaningful conversation, fulfill a goal, or not care or worry about the above (you know, sleep). My absurd statement that I will say now is this... It is easier to answer than it is to question. We do far less questioning and, yet, give such paltry answers.

    Relaxation is attainable, even if the entrepreneurial work ethic of our culture makes us feel perpetually guilty about it. You say that many of those answers are considered "laziness" to others. What do you consider them? It sounds like you consider them relaxation, even though you said it was in fact unattainable.
