The Blessings of the Childfree – Cont.

Sunday, November 30, 2008

OK, this is what I came up with. I did degrade into some comparisons here, but I tried to avoid it:

Valuing Experience over Responsibility
Giving Back to Society
Focus on Creation Outside of the Self
Focus on Personal Development
All Space can be Personal Space
All Time can be Personal Time
Additional Financial Resources
Night Activities

Who has more for me?

Holly White said...: I would definitely agree with the "creation outside of the self," though I think more like the "time for significant creative contribution to society's understanding of itself"--be it art, teaching, knowledge production, or politics. Not to mention "spiritual lessons." Leave it to the celibates of the world to carry on much of what we know about the spiritual of life.; November 30, 2008 at 1:37 PM
