Are humans really designed to live life in auto-mode, of is that a byproduct of living in a modern society? Philosophers of the past may not have been exposed to the same amounts of information we take for granted daily, but biologically there's very little difference between them and us. I can identify with the Seneca quote, mainly for it's perspective that time is a resource to be spent, and potentially invested. Seems truer today than ever.

What do you mean 'biologically'? Genome? Epigenome? Wings? I bet some of those differ a lot (hint: not wings:) We don't exist in vacuum: humans live among and with and as hosts for other creatures, and there is also environment that literally plays most important role. > I can identify with the Seneca quote, mainly for it's perspective that time is a resource to be spent, and potentially invested. Yeah, everything can be awesome in theory with little word or number massage. In real life, its usually not.
