It has been hours since I have been sitting like this, whiling away the time doing absolutely nothing (this piece not included, of course)even though I have been promising myself long hours at the study table, working out for a better physique and a dozen other things.
Doing nothing is an art. Laziness, in itself, is an art. How many people in the world do you think can effortlessly put away what has to be done today till tomorrow and what has to be done tomorrow till the day after tomorrow? Well, everyone probably wishes to do so, but how many seriously accomplish it???
I have been accomplishing this feat quite successfully and with quite a distinction in recent times. Probably, I would have claimed to have perfected the art itself, hadn't it for the fact that nothing is perfect. I have the same skinny look in terms of physique (i don't consider myself that bad looking though. Narcissus, anybody???) Am at the same pedestal as far as learning goes, maybe a bit lower (have gained wisdom though...lol). The hours I spend in my bed have assumed quite a legend of their own. I can while away the time doing absolutely nothing and not getting bored too!!! Weird, isn't it???
A thousand promises have been broken, many a resolutions shattered trying to withstand this mountain of evil. And even though the realisation is there, the body and mind feel disinclined to do anything productive in this matter. And as I know full well that to thwart this evil inside me, to stop putting things off from today till tomorrow i have to start working right now, I take your leave for today, hoping against hope that i succeed. Hope to give you some good news in the next piece. If not, do remember that I am afflicted with the art or rather the disease called laziness. :)
PS: About the last post, my sleep was a dreamless one. Seems my subconscious too is too lazy to dream ;)
