Patrick: Well. This lounging around is all well and good,
but we really should be getting something done.
Patrick: Wasting time is illogical. We could be writing papers, reading books,
doing research, working in the garden...
Ravi: But it's so pleasant sitting here with this lovely spring breeze blowing through the window.
It seems like ages since we had the windows open. Just smell the lilacs!
Patrick: It really is very nice! I like to watch the curtains rippling in the breeze.
It reminds me of kelp.
Ravi: ...kelp?
Patrick: Yes, like that nature program we watched about the oceans.
Remember how the kelp swayed back and forth in the ocean currents?
Ravi: Oh, you're right! That was a good program.
They should have more programs like that on TV.
Patrick: Indeed; instead of those silly shows Holly Belle watches.
Ravi: You know, it occurs to me that we're not really wasting time.
We're enjoying the moment having a good conversation.
Patrick: I just love your logical mind!

Ravi is a very smart boy. Those moments with your friends and family are never a waste of time.
I agree sitting with a companion talking is as important as learning things.
Enjoying the world around you at the same time is also important.
