If the serpent hadn't tempted Eve to eat the apple and then let Adam eat it as well, the world might just have been an easier place to live in. Men would not have to toil for survival and women will never have to go through labour pains. Stoopid damn serpent.
See, now we have a society with economics. We have to busy ourselves doing and living the science of economics.
Economics: the science that deals with the production, distribution, and consumption of goods and services, or the material welfare of humankind.
It's really just a vicious cycle of material chasing. We work hard for the money to buy other materials...let's say gold and diamond, oh and shares (to produce more money to buy more material stuff) And while working hard for all the money, prestige and fame, some of us forgot to enjoy the present life. People become self absorbed and yes jaded. But if you are a rich businessman, then perhaps other people work hard for your business while your thriving business creates more jobs to form part of the economy.
If life is so simple like just breathing, eating, drinking and sleeping, then WTF are we doing chasing after things that don't matter? Oh, there is greed, one of the seven sins. Because humans are greedy, we need to have a system, a kind of control. Then we need justice, so we have law and order. Everyone has a part to play in his/her society and live busy. So there, we work and to spice up our life, we buy material stuff to entertain ourselves. And then we also have spiritual and emotional needs. So we pay for yoga, pilates and whatever shit that makes us feel we are taking care of the well-being of our souls. Hey, so we are not souless, jaded people chasing after the rainbows. Such irony but that's life.
For all those bummers out there, your job is to bum around and make the rest of the busy people jealous ;)
I wonder what would an anthropologist say about the human race hmmm...
Emotional stress is nothing but exhaustion. Work stress is easier to handle anytime of the day.
