I am lying down in an almost empty bar car on the Metro North. After a long day at work, I met up with my friend for a few drinks. Now I’m on my way back to the city, over an hour on the train. Its the first time the train is so empty, and I can afford to lay down and rest.
As I look up at the ceiling, I wonder if there is more to life. I feel like it’s the same routine every day. Going to work day in and day out. Sure we meet up with friends once in a while, but essentially, work dominates our lives. How do you break out of that cycle without breaking out of society?
