that's odd. i still live with my parents, but instead of slothing, i've taken up several practices to increase my happiness and overall trend toward personal development, including, but not limited to, moral conviction and emotional maturity. for example, i am a voluntary celebate of 10 years, haven't masturbated in 5 years, been sober for more than 10 years, live as though i were poor (not consumer), and ride my bike 20-30 miles a day to hang out at parks while i read, sew or cook. im certain the reason people have such a difficult time reveling in the goodness of God is because they are boxed in day in and day out. have you ever tried, instead of paying taxes, not being an athiest?
