The Week That Was
I can’t say it was an easy week. In fact, it was very difficult.
But it is now over, and a new week is beginning. It is interesting how death makes you reevaluate life. You figure out what you really want, where you want to head, what you want to do. I think: am I doing everything I can now? The years tick by, and things happen that you can’t predict. Standard mortality stuff I guess, but its still interesting.
So in self-examining the way things are, I start thinking about them and the way things were. I like life right now, and I do want more, but I think that hunger for more is something that drives people to actually get out of bed in the morning and do things that make a difference to the world, or at least themselves.
I never want to be satiated.
But then, I do wonder if you do move beyond the “horizon” syndrome, where after acclimation to one situation, you’re always looking toward the next. Does one ever get to the point where they are content with the here and now?
