The essay for this week was known as Work and Leisure in Everyday Life by Henri Lefebvre. In this essay it talks about how our life consists on three important things known as work, family, and leisure. These are all things that consist in our typical day. This is much different from in the past way back to about the middle days where everything was basically one. There was no leisure time and work and family time were combined, not different ideas. Families would work together all of the time. As time progressed work, family, and leisure slowly began becoming individual items. Nowadays, most people who work spend their time after work as leisure time or being around their family. Everyone's leisure time looks different, and that is what makes it so unique to everybody. 

Many people who don't know what it is like to have no leisure time take leisure time for granted. They are consistently wanting more whether it is an object or more time. I think it is important that we don't take our leisure and family time for granted.
