Yesterday I finished a book-
Candide which in the end made me realize what is actually the most important in
keeping yourself happy. It ended with the words "Let us cultivate our garden"
which means to me that we have to keep ourselves busy even with simple
activities to be satisfied. When I was thinking about it it reminded me of two
weeks of the last summer that I spent with actually doing nothing effortable or
productive. I remember that after that I felt even more lack of energy and
satisfaction or happiness than if I was working really hard and was because of
it exhausted. At least then I'd feel that I'm doing something important. That's
why I think that these words are very accurate to nowadays world and we should
keep them in mind when we e.g. complain for too much work.
Nowadays we're dependent on big industries and I think that it's a problem. Usually we have to buy food that shops provides us but it's getting less healthy because it's mass grown and polluted by dangerous chemicals. Whereas, if it's organic, it's usually more expensive. This video shows that there're still people who provides food for themselves by hunting or growing it. For some it may seem primitive but I think that it's better for the environment, healthier for us and also cheapier. words: remote place, descendant, self-sufficiency People usually don't live in remote areas. Children aren't self-suffient because they're dependent on their parents. After king's death his descendant inherits the crown. . https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jJXEepvG6Hc&pbjreload=10
This is often a problem retired people have - having nothing to do they feel useless. This applies especially to men, as women find it much more natural to occupy themselves with 'simple activities' like cleaning, cooking or knitting.
