Had it just been suggested that, perhaps, I'd wasted 10 years of my life 'not doing anything?'
Take time off to bond with your new baby? To care for an elderly parent? To support a family member or friend experiencing terminal cancer, dementia, or another devastating diagnosis? To recover from addiction? To literally travel the world? Life happens, and sometimes we need—or want—time to experience it without the additional stress of 40+ hours of work every week.
If only life experiences, not just employment experiences, were valued. If only we looked at the whole person—his or her work ethic, integrity, and willingly to help make our world a better place. If only we did not judge that which we don't know and offered empathy for that which we do.. I did a lot of things. Perhaps, in fact, I did the most important things.
