    Interesting. It’s as if we need to prove our worth to ourselves and others. Being busy correlates well with productivity in society. I aim to be more relaxed!

    Ha! That line where you suggested that you “accuse” someone of not being busy made me laugh out loud. I can just picture the outrage. I know how I’D feel if someone said that to me. So, your hypothesis is proven right: we feel we have to prove that we’re busy in order to be worth something.

    I’ve been enjoying Revolution as well, and I’ve also wondered what it would be like. Of course, I’m wondering that as I’m sitting on my couch fast forwarding my DVR. :-)
