The other day sitting in the dentist chair something hit me. I was sitting there getting my teeth cleaned thinking, here is a woman that deals with nothing but teeth the entire day to make money to live. Of course then I realized I firmly plant my butt in a chair all day in order to do that same thing. I realized that this sort of thing has been building since the birth of societies and cultures. But it really amazed me how far we have taken it. Think about it. Do you have the knowledge to take care of the basic needs for yourself on a daily basis? I know that if something were to happen and I was responsible for my daily needs I would certainly struggle (aka die). I've become a specialist that doesn't even know how to grow or kill enough food to survive. Also makes me realize that if variety is the spice of life then I must be failing miserably. The variety I have in a standard day revolves around food. Might explain some things there. I guess I do get a little variety in the gym for 1 hour on 4 days a week. That makes things really exciting!
Mostly I didn't come up with any answers here, just more questions. It did make me realize that I just need to get out more. Out of the office for sure, but even out of the house, out of the gym, get out of the NORM. Do something that is new and different and enjoy the variety that is all around.
