Procrastination

Procrastination is a most intriguing word.

A word I gave a complete different meaning, and for some weird reason always had a religious connotation to it (it is Easter today – another religious connotation with a wide range of meanings and cultures).

Procrastination is the practice of carrying out less urgent tasks in preference to more urgent ones, or doing more pleasurable things in place of less pleasurable ones, and thus putting off impending tasks to a later time, sometimes to the “last minute” before a deadline. Now it is out and we all (read me) what this word of the Shake-spearing language means. I would have called it being an opportunist, or a slacker, yet there may be more to this fancy word as some may say the pleasure principle may be responsible for procrastination; one may prefer to avoid negative emotions, and to delay stressful tasks …

That said, I don’t know if it is all the chocolate eggs and candy we got to consume here, or just me being lazy this fine Sunday, but what is in my bag will have to wait another day …

For now, enjoy this fine Sunday, full of Easter Egg Hunting and Crazy Chocolate Love alike.
