"The experience of no need to find the necessary emolument."

[Ankh]

*smirk*

I avoid death, I avoid many potential catalysts. And I will continue to do so as this what provides me with the most peace and stability in my life. It is not in my desire to pursue working a job more than 20 hours a week for money that means nothing to me.

To be frank, if I really had to, I would live in nature without any social utilities. I don't need anything. I am inherently who I will be regardless of any social convention.

All that is inherent is desire to be one with who we are and this is fulfilled through an infinite amount of distortions of our choosing.

So do you work 20 hours a week then?

No, I do not. Ankh, why is working a required catalyst according to you?

It's not, but you're the one who said that you have a balanced acceptance of another catalyst, which imho is not a balanced acceptance at all since you are not exposed to this catalyst.

Money might mean nothing to you or me, but it's irrelevant since they are necessary to have if one wants to have food etc., unless, as you mentioned, one doesn't move into the woods, grow its own food and in other ways becomes self sufficient. I have some friends with this philosophy. And I have all respect for it. But when these friends don't get a job because of this philosophy but still live in cities and make other people pay for them, that is hypocracy, my friend. It's preaching without living it, and I have no respect for that. What they do is sit home and dream, while I work my ass off and pay high taxes, which pays for them doing nothing.
