some down time

People don't spend enough time with their family and friends anymore. I mean quality time. I don't see my parents anymore. I thought I could maybe have a party at the house. Then I thought, everyone would probably be too busy. Then I thought, well when aren't people busy? There used to be a time known as the weekend when everyone was at home from work. Now thanks to Sunday shopping that time is gone. I've heard people that are neutral on the subject and say if you don't like it, just stay home! Kind of hard to do when your schedule says you work that day. Everyone is too tired to just drop by and have tea. It never used to be like that. I think that we should work together to have social times. Or else we won't even know one another anymore.

TIP. Get on the phone or Internet and ask people if they want to go to a party with
FREE BEER! You will find them eager to change plans or schedules. They probably won't back out either. Do have a party or get together but only with food and a movie or something. When you get there say the beer got stolen . No one will leave because they'd look like a jerk.

You can do many different things that doesn't cost loads of money like :
take your friends out for a walk, play a sports game, have a barbecue (everyone can bring different foods) go out for coffee, go for a swim, watch the clouds, gaze at the stars etc. The more friends and family that come along the better! Also when you do things away from the hustle and bustle of urban areas you can get in touch with your spiritual side much easier. You don't always have to spend money in bars and malls to have fun. Life has become fast paced. Don't forget to live!
. . .

We don't look at the stars enough. In ancient times people named them and thought they were gods. Today we actually know what they are. They still hold allot of mystery and power. The light from a star that you see happened a thousand years ago. Light travels at a certain speed and stars are so far away that what we see in the sky is not what it really looks like if you were to be closer. Isn't that cool?!
