It is great fun to be able to laze around and do nothing. Those who have not done it or look down on it should actually give it a try. I don't mean sitting all by yourself and thinking intellectually about world peace and what not. Give yourself a chance to sit somewhere with your mind as a blank canvas and not a worry wrinkling your thoughts. If someone were to ask me what my favorite hobby was, I know in my mind that it will always be 'lazing around'. Not a very politically correct answer to give, maybe. I know for sure that there would always be a set of people who would shun me saying that I am idle, lazy and incapable of doing anything 'productive', which is why I waste my time pursuing 'nothing'. Or do something that makes me truly happy.
If I did not have to "work" for a living and had an endless supply of money (sigh! I wish!!), what would I do? I would travel, and travel a lot. I'd love to learn photography, if only to lock up the memories of the places I see and the people I meet. I'd want to open a quaint little bookshop and an old-fashioned cafe enveloped by the smell of baking cakes and freshly brewed coffee. I'd learn pottery and literally get my hands dirty. I'd spend uncounted hours shopping and picking up meaningless trinkets to adorn my space. ..... aah I could go on and on ....
Now I just need to figure out where that endless supply originates ... :D
