Even though I try to engage whole-heartedly and mindfully in every moment, there are times when I would rather be doing something else.
For example, I would rather be writing music for my protest song instead of working on my taxes. I would rather spend time with people who are honest and kind instead of people who lie and hurt others.
I would rather be eating ice cream rather than rice cakes but I’m trying a new diet with hopes that it will cure my annoyingly clicking jaw.
However, there is nothing I would rather be doing, here and now, than creating this blog post and sharing these images.

Obviously, I would rather be watching those guys than the guy who’ll be talking on TV tonight.
What would you rather be doing?
There’s nothing I would rather be doing than thanking the wonderful people in this world, including YOU.

the longer I’ve lived, the more time I’ve dedicated to do what I want to be doing and spending less time considering things I rather be doing, just doing them instead. life is short and we don’t have an end date
I’d rather be doing what you’re doing, beth!
Everyone’s replies made me think it appropriate to post an old friend’s comment from shortly after the election last November: “This is [gonna be] the political equivalent of being waterboarded during a colonoscopy while getting a root canal with a migraine.”
And by this time we all know exactly what he meant.
I would rather te listening to you, Barbara, than to the people who are causing so much pain.
Fat Tuesday and World Obesity Day. Paczki Day!! Now there is a day I can get behind. Eat too many Paczki and it will lead to more than Fat Tuesday but World Obesity Day.
As the orange one is babbling about stuff of which he as no clue, I will most likely be reading or in bed (have to get up early tomorrow)
I would much rather listen to you, Stan, than to the babbling orange one.
