It is odd how everything seems more daunting now that I don't have the vast amounts of time I had when I was younger. I should clarify that this is not regret. My youth is not some golden age to be pined for (I don't believe there has ever been a golden age or Eden that we fell from. If there is an Eden, it is in our future rather than our past). Instead it is a time with different problems, none involving a lack of time.
I often hear that age brings a sadness for what no longer happens, despair at the discrepancy between the state of the now to how one lived in the past. This is not my concern. I am smarter, healthier, richer, more in love, and better off than I have ever been. As I said the past sucks. :)
I guess mine is an embarrassment of riches. More is possible now then ever before. The challenge is commitment and focus. Everything is possible, but you can't do everything. You have to choose. And that is the dilemma that occupy my thoughts.
And the clock is ticking. I need to get something going. I don't want to have actual regrets because i was too scared make it happen.
I need to move pass process.
