Project Self-Knowledge Manifesto: To Seek out Independent Interests and Relish the Advantages of Alone Time
At this point I am afraid I must conclude I have no interests independent of family and work. I do like having time to go to the gym and practice yoga. Is vanity a legitimate interest? Not so sure about that one. (Back home in Toronto I find myself quite interested in my sexy garbagemen – but more on Eddie Van Garbage and David Lee Trash at another time…) As to “relishing advantages,” I have made the following list:
Being On My Own Pros
- Uninterrupted sleep
- No one making fun of my farting
- Pistachios for breakfast
- All the food I left in the fridge is still in the fridge when I next look in
