I do get the fear of having all that time. I assume it gets back to people not really having the time to deeply know themselves and being afraid of what they'll find. Day to day life is a whole lot easier with distractions, even if those distractions are frustrating or miserable in the moment.



Sorry to hear. I hope you'll get past that fear one day and discover how rich your life can be without work filling most of your days and taking up most of it (potentially for someone else's profit.)


Oh sorry, I didn't phrase that well. I'm not in that position but do think I understand when people are stuck by that fear.

Personally I work part time on software projects and have a small farm/homestead. I usually don't know what day of the week it is and have the freedom to take each morning yo decide how I want to spend my day. I wish everyone could experience that freedom, even if they find they don't like it.
