In 1992, someone calculated how a typical lifespan of 70 years is spent. Here is the estimate:

• Sleep – 23 years
• Work – 16 years
• Television – 8 years
• Eating – 6 years
• Travel – 6 years
• Leisure – 4.5 years
• Illness – 4 years
• Dressing – 2 years
• Religion – 0.5 years

The first thing I wondered when I read this list was, Where is the time for going to the bathroom and taking a shower? I also wondered, If this was done today, how much time would be spent online? The final thing I wondered was, Would I consider this a quality life?

I suppose the quality could be determined by where a person slept, what they did for work, what they ate, where they traveled, what they did for leisure, and how much their religion positively effected them and the world. In other words, quality would have to be determined by looking at a life in greater detail than these categories. But if all I had done in life was on this list, would I have really lived? Jesus said in John 10:10, “I have come that they may have life, and have it to the full.”
