Aiming to keep my dirt-dwelling life simple, special and sweet

Time

In my morning affirmation book, Simple Abundance, today's entry said that the day should be budgeted as such.

8 hours = work
8 hours = whatever you want
8 hours = rest

Very, very simple, (and not always that easy) but I like it. Do we each take time for "whatever we want" each day? If not, how can we add more. Life isn't meant to be 100% about what we do - it needs to inlcude who we are and what we love.
