Back from the Melbourne trip for the better I hope

I have being feeling mentally stale for the last few months. I decided to spend a few days in Melbourne to get away from the blues of my home city. My home city is Sydney, Australia. Sydney is the largest city in Australia. I made a decision to go on a holiday to Melbourne, Australia. Melbourne is the second largest city in Australia. One reason is that I was very pissed off with the social welfare industry of Australia. Being unemployed from paid work for four years is another reason as well. I booked the trip to Melbourne on the internet. I arrived in Melbourne on March 8, 2013 & left there on March 12, 2013. It turned out that March 11, 2013 was a Labour Day Public Holiday in Melbourne & the rest of the state of Victoria. Melbourne is the state capital of Victoria. I had a good trip & hope to be back for the positive. Beside blogging, I can’t say what I will be doing for now. The main thing I can think of is to keep healthy. Hope for the best. Hope for some good news down the track.

Is Blogging A Form Of Work ?

Watching and Blogging

I was once in a group of people where everyone else was in paid work except me. I said to this accounting worker that I was a blogger. He assumed that I don’t work at all. I don’t understand how blogging is not work. I can’t believe anything that is unpaid is treated like it is nothing. Most work in this world is unpaid. Anything unpaid is too undervalued. Some people do assume you are nothing unless you earn a lot of money. The truth is some are overpaid for doing next to no work because they can’t do anything constructive. That is from my work experience. I am doing something very constructive but don’t get paid. It is a shame I seem to insignificant in the mainstream because of the dollars. I am not ripping off someone else in money. I am keeping out of trouble. I haven’t committed a crime. In my opinion, it is my idea of doing a community service. Making the world richer with my writings. Work can be a lot of things. There can be many disagreements what is considered work & what is not considered work. It is Saturday night I am writing my blog post. In my opinion, work is work no matter what it is. Blogging is work because that accounting worker needs a reality check.
