I take my pathology with me wherever I go. When I get good-stressed or bad-stressed I can run around and over commit emotionally, financially and time wise to perfectly credible enterprises to quell my anxiety.
That would be me in 3 classes, working overtime, attending a zillion meetings, baking cookies. Well, you get the picture. I've caught myself wanting to visit family out of state, entertain friends with a field trip, help close up a nearby retreat center, go to two extra church functions, register for a workshop weekend all within the next 3 weeks. And, yes, I am actually in 3 spiritual classes (caught myself in time trying to get into a 4th) and we have a major work overhaul coming on October 1st, thanks to Medicare changes.
Don't tell me about stopping to smell the roses! I want to smell them ALL, bundles and bundles of them.
Desire is what is good about today. Without desire we would never move off our couches. Without restraint, we would never pay for our couches.

(Said with friendly smirk on face!) In five years you can sell your couch as "new-never used". Because you didn't have time to use it!
ReplyDelete--grin!!!!
Tip: Fill your couch with roses! Then SIT and smell them.
