He told me he only has an hour each afternoon free to himself from 10pm till he goes to sleep, so that explains why we never get to hang out anymore.
I was talking about my lifestyle and how it has changed. The simplicity of life can give you a freedom back that you had when you were a little child and make you feel light and free like you once felt. Life can get too complicated with all of the responsibilities we put on our plates and take away from the delight we once felt. Some of my friends have such a busy life that I have to schedule weeks in advance if I want to hang out with them for an hour or so. Most of them own local companies and have adolescents, which takes up almost all of their free time, kind of like my HVAC rep buddy who I haven’t seen in several years. He told me he only has an hour each afternoon free to himself from 10pm till he goes to sleep, so that explains why we never get to hang out anymore. I was running a heating and ac supplier myself back then and was quite busy with heating and cooling repairs, and so I decided I wanted a change and made my life much simpler in the process. It took me many years to get out of debt and to simplify my life, however now that I did it I feel so free and light. I still work some for the modern company in town, however only part time, and I get to spend the rest of my time in the naturally climate controlled beach that is close to my flat. Life is great if you work on it.
