Definition: Wanting to avoid activity or exertion; lazy
I’m afraid I’ve fallen into a pattern of indolence. Aside from working out, the only thing I’ve done this week has been either reading or watching TV and movies. I’ve hung out with friends, but even that doesn’t exactly involve putting forth any kind of real effort. I’ve been somewhat suspended in a wonderful pause in time. With no classes or studying or stress, it’s been fantastic. However, classes start back on Tuesday and I will no longer be able to be so indolent. I’m trying to completely enjoy this break because how many times in my life will I be able to sleep until 10:30/11:00 every day and not worry about any real obligations? Not very many that’s for sure. Although I am very much dreading the return to reality, it is time to get things back together. The excitement to see what will happen in my next semester wins out over my desire to do nothing every single time…Besides what kind of life is filled only with laying around? We wouldn’t ever get anything accomplished. A few more days to enjoy my indolence, and then I’ll take on the world As the Clock Ticks…
Something to remember: “It is the common fate of the indolent to see their rights become a prey to the active.” -John Philpot Curran
