Life.

Maybe I am thinking of it too much, but does anyone ever feel like anything one does in life is too constricting?

For instance, when you are born, you have some freedom (not really, your day is filled with naps and being taken care of).

When you go to school, you are confined to having to go to school.

When you go to work (and I mean full time), your life is being eaten away at; even though, you know you need it to pay the bills.

Let's hope no one here gets there or has learned from experience (you are a criminal and you are confined in prison or jail).

Retirement is about the only time you actually have freedom and this is comparative to the freedom, one would have, if they were homeless. Not only that, but I am sure, you have aches and pains that may really not make the freedom worth it.

Then again, with being homeless, it comes with its own caveat, you are hoping to not be harmed and hope to survive, day to day. When you are retired, you are just hoping the funds do not run out.

Then you expire, which, man.....what a way to live.

So being a human is kind of tough, would you not say? You are always confined to something.
