Laziness

Being lazy sucks. That's it, plain and simple. All of you assertive people out there might not understand, but laziness is a DISEASE!@! Laziness isn't something that you can simply brush off and say "You know, I think I wont be lazy today, I'm going to go do something epic!" Laziness persists and compounds--the lazier you are the lazier you will be in the future.

There are a couple ways that you can develop this disease:
1. You just plain out don't like to do active things.
2. You USED to like to do things but you decided that sitting around doing nothing was a lot easier.

I would say that my case of laziness definitely developed from scenario 2. I used to be a very active person! I loved to frolic in fields and run chasing butterflies but my laziness started to take ahold of me when my parents made me to tons of hard labor! I would be forced to work under the beating sun until my hands were raw and blistered; after these intense work sessions I would enjoy every minute of worklessness that I could find! At first this was not laziness, but simply a relaxation period; as time wore on, I began to take advantage of every possible movement less moment.

"HA-HA!" you might say "I am not lazy and I will NEVER be lazy!" A word to the wise...laziness is CONTAGIOUS! Take my little brother for example. I don't think that his case of laziness is irreversible yet, but he has definitely been hanging out with me too much. The other day we were sitting in the living room, and he was so lazy that he wouldn't even make his own tea, even after I had already heated up the water! He wouldn't even make his own popcorn he was so lazy, and had to beg our sweet mother to do it for him. She scolded him, but eventually did it for him which is not something you want to do if you are trying to stop someone from being lazy. MAKE THEM DO EVERYTHING THEMSELVES!

For those of you who are are reading this for intellectual benefit...I congratulate you, but for the rest of you who are reading this simply because you don't want to get up and do anything else, GET OFF YOUR BUM AND STOP READING!!!

Come on...I just told you to stop reading...OK, stop NOW!

NOW!

Alright...I have a better idea...I think I will stop writing because I am using it as an excuse for not doing anything else and its a beautiful day out.
