Cognitive Surplus

The following article has provoked many ideas about the free (or lack of) time I have.

My free time is usually spontaneously managed and I occasionally plan my days. I've noticed that free time is essential to everyone. Without that time to unwind, relax, and reflect, I think society would crumble. Madness would ensue and people would possibly revolt. There is a balance in nature. Some of great freedom, some of great restraint. Sometimes, boundaries must be set up to visualize an asset. How does it feel to become more expressive and more open? The body and mind is free to explore and expand its viewpoint. Sometimes spiritual inspirations occur and unique innovations emerge. Soon enough, there will be no limits to individual expression. However, that would be unrealistic. We are not Amsterdam. Our expressions are limited by our social constraints and societal values.
