Divided Minds

"There's a fine line between being woke and being lazy," I heard from a co-worker of mine.

And this is absolutely true, which sent me into the expansion of this idea. This mentality, the concept of laziness vs. purpose per say, is mainly targeted in the work environment. Now, we are on this planet to enjoy life, having our basic needs met and kept safe. The "woke" community understands this. However, that does not directly translate to not having to work at all, which is what the other party in this scenario is observing. We ALL have a part to play in society. This doesn't mean you have to go get the typical job, pay typical bills, and play into the role of working your life away, but when we work, we should do it with purpose. If you have a certain lifestyle that suits you, do the work that can get you to that point. If it requires money, find a way to make it. If it requires your time, make time for it. This "new generation of workers," the title that we have been so humbly assigned, is here to show us that there does not need to be this attachment to a specific career choice. They understand that humans are evolving, and sometimes that means moving on. Which is what we should all be doing. Workers are replaceable, but so are employers. This is an open concept. It is not intended to be a rivalry.
