Is your work your life?

I don't mean this in terms of earning your living. Of course, we work to earn a living. What I mean is this. We spend most of our life working. Sometimes we can't work just for eight hours and call it a day. We tend to work more and more and hardly find time for the really enjoyable things in life like spending time with family, hobbies, pets, so on and so forth. Finally, we even realize that we have not been able to do the things we truly love doing. What are your thoughts about this?
