Are we really living...?

Sometimes I feel like life defeats me. I don't have enough time to spend on things I enjoy, I don't have enough money to experience things I would like to, I don't have enough courage to jump off my path and start a new one...
I just feel like there are so many things that hold us back in life from where we should be, what we should be doing.
How wasteful it seems to be to work 7 days a week, to spend our weekends running errands and doing chores around our homes/ect. We don't have time for the people we love or for the hobbies we truly would rather spend our precious time on. We don't have the budget to take random holidays and travel and share those experiences with others.
So what really...what is it that we are living for?
Day after day, month to month....years pass us by and our internal clocks continue on...each second dissappearing before our eyes screaming at us to live.
We robotically move from our homes, to our cubicles, back home to the couch...wasting away...
How do you live each day as if it were your last? I know if it were my last day I wouldn't be spending it bored at work or numb infront of my television.
But we have to do these things.
So at what point really are we supposed to be living and cherishing?
Does anybody actually have time for that stuff?
I wish we had equal work to weekend ratios. I want more family time, more me time...
More fulfillment! Just more...
