Estimated Running Time

Throughout life your energy gets smaller but your days get longer. If you had a car with 400,000 miles on it you wouldn't drive it around for 18 hours a day. Life does not agree with me, when you're born you actual awake time is small as you get older you are awake and moving more and more and more. Why don't we realize this instinctually and just shut it down from ages 0-12. I'm not saying sleep all day just, four hours then nap, rinse and repeat, then sleep for twelve and start again. The instinct isn't to conserve and save it for your twenties through sixties, hell no, we use it, we fight naps and we stay up late. That is preposterous, we need to play the long game for a minute. To me, this is like putting your relief pitcher in the second inning of a 20 inning overtime game. This means someone ill equipped to handle eight or nine innings, your closer, has to take you the distance and try not to blow it at the end.

The answer to my hypothesis is well, no, maybe even no in capital letters and an exclamation point, NO! I can't go to sleep early I can't nap, no matter if I want to, there is life to be lived. The mere fact that we have the ability and drive to waiste our energy makes life so damn captivating. Throughout your life you experience so many events every minute why would you want to conserve your life? These are the facts some times, going through looking forward to it ends up defining the whole thing.

People say that youth is wasted on the young. I say age is wasted on the old. Don't forget that you can't be angry and annoyed with the way young people act, if you in fact, didn't annoy someone older than you previously. This is just a reminder to push yourself and be as open as possible to the idea that when you know everything new thing are being invented every minute of everyday, just to prove you wrong. Be young inside when your old outside and old inside when your young outside and just maybe you can have it all.

Have a great day and remember smile, it could always be worse
