I have passed the prime of my youth and as look back I realize that most of my time were spent working. A break every now and then but still I have to go back to work. Do we really work in order to live? of we live in order to work?

intresting that u ask this. Me and my bf did talk about this for some days ago. I´m Swedish and he is German..and we have find out that our countries think diffrent in this. Germans do see there working as a part in life ..I mean they have a bit social part in this working while they are social and then they have come home they like to be home ..We swedish once we standing and check the clock a lot then we work because we want to end it and do things after ..so we don´t put our works in a social way thought.

looking forward to knowing your answer. You might help me sort out my thoughts. It's interesting to hear answers specially from someone coming from a highly develop country. Thanks! I appreciate it.
