Do you feel like accomplished enough, when you go to bed at night?

    I wasted the last year utterly but these days I'm well happy with what I achieve each day. I doing an awful lot of personal work and rebuilding my domestic situation and personal life in tandem, so, yeah, I'm happy as hell right now. After a year of doing nothing it's so good to be active.

    Sigh...I wish. I'm doing the work I feel I need to do, but results have not quite been forthcoming.

        We shall not cease from exploration, and the end of all our exploring will be to arrive where we started and know the place for the first time.

    Hardly ever.

    There's always someting needs to be fixed, whether with a hammer, or a soothing word.

      I think that, in some cases, that is why it is more difficult to sleep as the years progress. So much to do, so little time....

        A wise friend once commented to me, after hearing my worries, "You're carrying the weight of the world on your shoulders". Then he told me that I can only do the best that I can and no better. Risking my sanity and health will render myself useless to everyone. I always go over a mental priority checklist every night and then in the morning. Then, when I either succeed or fail to complete my list, I can regroup and do my best tomorrow. Feels pretty good knowing that I'm human and imperfect, sometimes fail to complete my list, most times get things done, and still do good things for others.

        Walking a spiritual path and having faith and hope doesn't hurt either. Most of my athiest and agnostic friends only believe in themselves, and that's too finite a world for me.

        I sleep like a baby.
