Labor Day - Life

What a day! An official day that marks labor.

Woo.

Many people have this day afforded to them as leisure. That’s great! If you are laboring today instead, that’s okay too.

Personally, I think this entire day is silly. Really, most any holiday is silly. Really, society and what passes as normal is quite silly.

Most people seems to just accept all of this as life.

Let’s have some perspective here.

Working  some job or another for at least 40 hours out of the 168 we have each week, with 56 of those hours being sleep. So in essense we use up 40 hours out of 112 hours available to us for active usability.

This is and entire 35.7% of our entire weekly allotment of hours!

And this is only if you are involved in that job for only 40 hours. This doesn’t factor in the additional ½ hour that many are not even compensated for but yet forced to use for that job to recharge with your own bought or brought food and drink. Some even have to use 1 hour of their lives that is not compensated, but yet required by the employer.

This brings us to 45 – 50 hours or 40.2% - 44.6% of our weekly allotment.

This also doesn’t factor in your commute to that job. If you drive 30 minutes or less, that’s an additional 1 hour for 5 days of those 7 days in a week.

Some people, especially in urban areas have an hour or longer commute. Each way! That’s an additional 2-3 hours daily spent getting to that job, that the employer will not be compensating you for neither. Not to mention the high stress, anxiety of a lot of traffic, and additional costs like fuel, insurance and vehicle maintenance that you must spend to even get to that job.

Now we’re at 50 – 65 hours devoted to this job. A 58% ratio of job versus anything else our lives hold.

What in the actual fuck?!

And these are way too often the bare minimum of hours I am calculating here.

What in the actual fuck?!

So again, what are we celebrating today?

Labor?

I would much rather celebrate life. Every single day of the year. I know this is also in most hearts, this desire. But the programs of this particular reality code are strong.

We are in such a hustle culture that there is no time left for anything important. Things that come from our Hearts. I’m talking about the spiritual Heart. Our very reason for being. Our purpose. The “why we’re here”.

Where do you find your attention devoted to? Becoming aware of this is a great step in beginning to shift your life. If you aren’t sure where to begin, ask yourself if you are focusing on your problems or the solutions to the problems.

Most often we get stuck in focusing on the problem, right? Shift that awareness. Your Heart will guide you once you being to focus on this.

Ask you Heart to show you the solution. What does it feel like in there? And just focus on that. Every single day for only 3 minutes.

That’s it.

Dream your dream again. It is never too late.
